Finally, Samsung is ready for Tizen. The company is
about to release an alternative OS to Android and Samsung calls it Tizen. The
Samsung Z is gonna be the first phone which would run Tizen out of the box.
Samsung is trying to move away from Android based phones which a big step that
Samsung is taking. Tizen is going to be an operating system which could be used
across Samsung’s Ecosystem and that is what Samsung wants. A compressed version
of Tizen was earlier used by Samsung in its Galaxy Gear 2 which has a few good
features too. The Samsung Z will be the first non-android flagship from Samsung.
The phone was going to be released at the World Mobile Congress this year but
it couldn't make it.
Samsung is the largest and one of the best Android manufacturer
of all time. Its departure from Android in the future might result in favour of
Tizen OS. Right now Android is leading
the smart phone OS war and may be even in the future android might be the king
of the smart phone operating systems. Now let’s see if Samsung’s huge step is a
step in the right direction or not.
Samsung Z’s Tizen OS looks more
or else like TouchWiz only. Samsung said Tizen OS has faster boot up time and also better
multi-tasking than other Androids. They also promised great 2D and 3D
performance from this new OS. It also has better scrolling and rendering
performance for web surfing. The current Tizen version 2.2 looks as if it’s a close
cousin of the Android Jellybean with a few changes. There is a big reason why Samsung
is doing a huge experiment. Tizen OS is capable of multi-platform integration.
It is going to be used on mobiles. It has been used on wearables and TV’s
too. Samsung recently released the SDK
for developers to create apps for the Tizen based TV’s.
