The Mac, however, will be able to bypass this by taking advantage of the enviable iPad app ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s not just apps and software, though. To take an obvious example, there&rsquo;s little about the Pixelbook that actually ties it to Pixel phones aside from branding. As&nbsp;<em>Android Authority&rsquo;s&nbsp;<\/em>Oliver Cragg put it, you can count the ways Pixel phones integrate with Chromebooks on one hand.
