Tizen in stores soon Samsung announced Reuters : first smartphone to be launched in the second quarter of 2014 It will be a high-end device, similar to what the brand is on Android. A second smartphone should follow thereafter announced without dates, which would position itself in the middle range.
This new and recent arrival watches connected Gear second generation under Tizen shows that Samsung always looking for a way to loosen a little the ties that attach to Google and its mobile operating system, Android.
High and mid-range under Tizen
Samsung sells many Windows Phone devices, but not to be mistaken: he became the first manufacturer of smartphones in the world, is using - and feeding - the success of Android . Tizen must address this issue.
Especially for Samsung, Google will keep an eye on changes in Android is clear. http://exactlywhatwedexpected.blogspot.com /2014/04/samsung-pushes-by-google-and-android-to.html" style="border: 0px; color: #005399; cursor: pointer; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="" title="">'s call to order made by Google in January, is emblematic of this business relationship success, but source tension and competition between the ambitions of two giants.
Samsung therefore seeks to take some air. Tizen could offer him. Certainly, he must successfully entered the smartphone market. Samsung is betting that consumers buy a Galaxy S4 or S5 Galaxy, and not a "high-end Android smartphone." In short, it relies on its brand to him rather than on Google.
Gamble but appears as a one-way street. Samsung rushes headlong hoping the challenge, seeing the only exit. No way to turn back now. It remains to be seen, however, whether the strategy of South Korean giant - to watch on your wrist connected in Tizen users before attacking with his smartphone - is good.
Not to offend Google
"Android should remain our core business," however prevents the manufacturer. Tizen and Windows Phone are seen as a way to reach markets that Android can not reach, he told Reuters.One wonders where, and wait to see.
Especially since the release of a "high end" device does not show the segment will offer depending on the OS. Both smartphones seem to face a battery position S5 and facing a cheaper model, as Ace. Where are the Android market can not reach? Samsung tries he to spare Google?
The manufacturer currently more interest, especially if Tizen is open source, it uses some components closed Android. Samsung and pay a fee to Google for this integration. For the rest, we do not know the specifications of the mobile. It is therefore possible that they are not directly comparable with the high-end and mid-range Android. Still, it will take care ... Samsung has just announced a show connected on Android before the end of the year. Diplomacy?
