That\u2019s finally changing.<\/p>\n<p>Google has announced that Chrome for ARM64 Linux will be available in the second quarter of 2026, so sometime between April and June. This comes after ARM-native Chrome arrived on macOS in 2020, around when the first M1-powered Mac computers hit store shelves, and the ARM Windows version showing up in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Builds of the open-source Chromium browser have been available for ARM Linux for years. However, Chromium isn\u2019t exactly the same as regular Chrome\u2014you usually can\u2019t synchronize it with a Google account, DRM playback is limited, and there are other assorted issues. Now that official builds of Chrome will be available, the browser can work exactly like it does on Windows, macOS, x86 Linux, and Chromebooks.<\/p>\n<p>                    <span data-field=\"label\" class=\"article-card-label\">Related<\/span><\/p>\n<h5 class=\"display-card-title \">\n<p>\t\t\tWhat Is Chromium, and Can You Use It as Your Browser?<\/p>\n<\/h5>\n<p class=\"display-card-excerpt\">Ever wonder what makes your web browser tick?
