Samsung says goodbye to Symbian. After feeding rumors and confirming suspicions during these months prior to the news, the Korean company Samsung has decided to definitively abandon the Symbian operating system, known as open source and by now, wholly owned by the Finnish Nokia. It is not weird. In the last year, the Korean has not hesitated when it comes to selecting Android as the main operating system. In fact, its current flagship boasts the Google platform. We refer to the Samsung Galaxy S or its fashionable tablet, theSamsung Galaxy Tab.
But this is not all. In recent months we have also seen how the company bet on Windows Phone 7 as one of the current operating systems. Few have been the mobile phone companies that have followed this path. One of the fruits of this alliance between those of Korea and those of Redmond is the Samsung Omnia II, a device that stands out for a brilliant 3.1-inch AMOLED screen and a processor of up to 800 Mhz. The fact is that at this point, Samsung has decided to be another of those who break the Symbian alliance, initially configured by the main brands dedicated to mobile telephony.
It was clear that Samsung did not have in mind to make phones that run Symbian. That's what Nokia is for. But the most important thing about this news is that the relations between Samsung and Symbian will end drastically tomorrow. From tomorrow, Samsung will no longer support its own phones that incorporate this operating system. Tonight at 01:00 hours all the content that supported Symbian users will no longer be available.
