If they've got Linux working, it MAY be possible. Whether it would be done, let alone stable, is a completely different question however.

What's more likely is that we'll see someone port a media player over to the Switch.

buys a switch to install android and not being able to play switch games..instead of buying a tablet for half the price...priceless

Yes because there's no such thing as dual booting, now, is there?

Also would love to find one of these tablets for half the price.... Presumably they're dockable, with detachable controls and just as powerful? Because if they're not then "get a cheaper tablet" isn't even a real option.

Whats the sense in dual booting with 32GB storage
if the switch had 64gb or 128 that would make more sense

Shame there's no micro-sd slot /s.
shame you dont know how android works.
The os installs with typically less than 4 GB

not anymore. that was marshmallow days
the system partition alone is more than 4GB, not to mention the data partition. people here think that you can just install android like Windows

to port youre gonna need kernel source, device and vendor blobs

Because you want a powerful gaming tablet with dock and controller to watch videos
