During the past 2012 the South Korean Samsung announced that the strategy that until now it had been using with Bada OS as a native operating system would be integrated into another with Tizen, a new platform that the company was developing jointly with Intel "" that after the setback it suffered With the resignation of Nokia to command MeeGo, he shifted his attention to this other option ””. However, it was not clear how the new system would materialize, although some captures were revealed with what Tizen would look like. Today, however, we can say that Samsungwill launch several teams based on Tizen during this same year.
Through the North American publication Bloomberg it would have been known of the official confirmation by Samsung that this 2013 would mean the premiere of Tizen. They have not specified how many terminals would be launched this year, or their characteristics, leaving the distribution policy up in the air. The idea, apparently, would be to check how the Tizen devices can work in each region, and based on that, refine the strategy in each case.
We are at the gates of CES 2013 in Las Vegas, although this does not mean that Samsung prepares the presentation of its first Tizen at the North American event. So much so that from the Japanese media Yomiuri Shimbun they maintain that it will be at the next Mobile World Congress 2013 in Barcelona "" which will be held between February 25 and 28 "" when the phone with which this new one would be inaugurated is revealed device family. In the case to which the Japanese publication alludes, the equipment would be destined to the catalog of the main operator in this country, NTT DoCoMo. This being the case, there would be indications about how Samsungwould have closed a round of negotiations with the telephone companies to support the premiere of its Tizen range.
This year is undoubtedly the most generous in terms of opening secondary systems. We have already attended the presentation of a new Linux- based platform, such as Android, although in this case linked to the popular Ubuntu environment. The engineers who were dedicated to MeeGo have settled in Jolla, and this year they will also show Sailfish, a platform that will have a lot to do with what was only officially seen on the Nokia N9. And we also have this Tizen that concerns us.
By the way, within the strategy that the South Korean Samsung handles for this platform, it seems that the Bada heir will not be far from the main aspirations of the company. So much so that it has already been said that it could occupy a place of exception ahead of Windows Phone. It should be remembered that to date, the Asian company has only presented a computer with Windows Phone 8, the Samsung ATIV S, whose distribution is not enjoying special support from the firm itself.
