Google Chrome is coming to Arm-powered Linux devices later this year

Google has announced that it is bringing Chrome to ARM64 Linux machines in Q2 2026, following Chrome for Arm Macs in 2020 and Chrome for Windows on Arm in 2024. The move is part of a larger effort to address the growing demand for a browsing experience that combines the benefits of the open-source Chromium project with the Google ecosystem of apps and features. The announcement specifically targets Nvidia’s DGX Spark micro AI desktops, which also run Linux on Arm. However, three of the companies that build Arm processors may be looking to Linux to compete with the Windows/Intel/AMD incumbents.
