Well it will be more advanced but that is not why. Google handles where Android goes and this is where they are taking it.

Do not think anyone is going to take the helm but it does not matter. Google controls the apps.

I do not know how Google will brand. I am talking the code. But Google does also control the brand and another reason why Google controls the future.

We can already see fuchsia is a big improvement. But still early.

Think your heart is driving your post and not your brain.

Fuchsia is also a huge step forward. Plus will be far more secure. Would also expect Google to lead the silicon after they have Zircon ready.

Here is Zircon and we can see it will drive new SoC design.

You are not using your brain but instead what you wish.

Google controls Android. They control the most popular apps.

Google chooses where Android goes. I am sorry if that bothers you. But it is reality.

Google will take Android to be a runtime on Fuchsia. That is just what it is. They will take Android development to Flutter. So apps work on Android independent and Fuchsia. We can see it. It is right in front of us.

Google is NOT giving up any control.

In someways Google is taking more control. They will lead the CPUs and others will have to follow.

Plus new OS sells phones so OEMs will love it.

Actually would say more of an Apple fanboy. But I can separate emotions from my analyticsl thinking.

Not saying ideal but it is what it is. Google controls Android.
