Google is in talks with chipset manufacturers with a view to designing its own processors and other components for future Android devices, according to a new report.

The company is said to be interested in following Apple’s footsteps in an effort to make Android “more competitive” at the high end of the market, and to “solve other major problems.”

Google has begun rolling out its November security update for Nexus smartphones, eliminating seven vulnerabilities in Android — one of which was a “severe” issue that could allow remote code execution.
