Google announced on March 12, 2026, that it will begin providing official Chrome web browser binaries for ARM64 Linux devices. This release, anticipated in Q2 2026, addresses a long-standing gap for users running Linux on ARM-based hardware, such as Raspberry Pi boards or Snapdragon X Elite laptops. Previously, these users were limited to installing Chromium, the open-source project that forms the basis of Chrome, rather than an an officially supported Google build. The move will standardize access to Chrome's features and services across a wider range of Linux architectures.
