The biggest thing is are the Android apps actually usable...

I bought a Pixel C and it was a horrible experience using mostly all apps... most major apps only support landscape, there is no auto focus on text boxes, horrible graphics in full screen, etc... I returned it 1 hour after using it.

You can install Remix OS and their way of dealing with this is scaling down apps to mimic a phone interface. I'm not sure how Chrome OS will solve this problem.

There's virtually no Android apps made for these interfaces/sizes.

Eh, I use an 12" Android tablet; whil e most apps might not be specialized for the size, I've never run into any that I want to use that don't work well on it. This is basically a 12" tablet with a swing out keyboard rather than a detachable keyboard case, so I don't see it being much of a real problem.
