Samsung Picks Tizen OS

[dsmas]

Samsung said it would start selling smartphones this year featuring the Tizen operating system backed by Intel. The company didn't elaborate on model specifications, price or time frame for their debut. The new handsets come when Samsung looks to reduce its reliance on Google Android operating system after the Web search company acquired handset maker Motorola Mobility Holdings for $12.5 billion in May. Executives from Intel, Samsung, NTT DoCoMo and Vodafone formed the Tizen Association last year to support the open source software. Google plans to devote more attention to mobile devices as its rivalry with Apple accelerates.

Hope Tizen does not follow Bada's (OS featured in Samsung 'Wave' phones') track.
Wave 3 is the cheapest phone with best hardware and sh!t os.

Tizen is still in dev preview. so it will lag. Its mainly on HTML5 so lots of new features and animation effects..

My opinion its simple... Tizen sucks...
It as html5 so it as New features? Wow... Do you really know Why html5 was made for?
Html5 was made to kick ass adobe flash out of web sites... Just like Apple want it...
So its not just for Tizen, but for every browser on Internet... Oooh and it asnt New features... Sorry to disapoint... Its a simple computer language for web design...
Why Tizen sucks? Because it goes back to the first step... And Android its 2 steps ahead... The 3 step I hope it Will be 5.0 in this final year...

I don't think it will change much. Samsung will continue to make Android phones. Look, they already make Windows Phones as well as Android phones. Samsung will build whatever platform makes them money. Hell, even Google knows they need Samsung because they push the most phones with Android.

Yes so its right that google need samsung. Google have already betrayed some of its loyal partners like Htc and microsoft. Microsoft never limit them to grow on its windows platform.

I dont think that Google needs Samsung... If you see the new upcoming phones like Sony xperia Z specs... Wow... Its not just software, hardware and software counts both...

Lmfao. Yeah I reallllly doubt that's gonna happen. And even if it does I wouldn't be buying an s4 with Sammy's current attitude to the dev community.

Tizen based off Meego (anyone used Meego will appreciate this..awesome interface on Nokia N9). Folks talking Tizen sucks like they have used it already..lol

 

[Latoc]

A study just out said that out of 10000 (ten thousand) people, only 100 (one hundred) knew what OS they had on their phone !!!

That's 1% !!!

People don't care, and Samsung knows it.

 

[Nicko80]

Wow... Nokia N9? Youre talking about a Phone that sold 2 or 3 million devices in one year... Its a Phone for minoritys... Samsung note 2 sold 5 millions units in 2 months... And People do know What they buy, if you go for statistics... 500 million Android devices Talk from themselfs...
You really thing that Samsung its going to expend millions on a top Phone and install them with Tizen? If they do that.. They will turn to a company like nokia... No one cares...

I had the maemo on nokia n900 and i liked its interface. Then nokia turned it into meego on n9, the only reason n9 didnt sell well was nokias announcement that they wont be supporting meego. People didnt buy it because of limited or no dev on that phone. But if nokia woould have made more updates of meego and more phones with that OS the result would be different. You people dont know the whole story and you just blab here.

I am still positive about both the TIZEN and UBUNTU OS.
