Google just recently abandoned Android and pushed ChromeOS for tablets. Now this, there is just no continuity with Google.
Unless you absolutely need Android for some reason, I would recommend the iPad.

That said, 2-in-1 x86_64 Chrome OS devices are bearable. Unlike Android; all the drivers are upstream.
I really like my Samsung Chromebook Pro, but would recommend looking for something that's on a later Linux kernel (at least 4.4) because not all the new features get backported. (See http://dev.chromium.org/chromium-os/developer-information-fo... for a list of all the options.)
It's GTalk/Hangouts/Allo/etc. all over again, just this time with Android and ChromeOS. I wouldn't be surprised if they announce that they're going to abandon ChromeOS and that they're going to only use Android instead. How can the different product teams at a company be so completely disconnected from each other?
Similar to the whole .NET vs C++ at Microsoft, and how that influenced Longhorn, WinRT and such
