Tizen The Enemy To Andriod

                                     What is Tizen

Tizen is a new operating system that runs on mobile devices, TV’s, cars, etc. unlike android tizen is trying to improve many parts of users experience including the hardware like proper battery management, the tizen operating system has been around since 2012 but was reportedly accepted by Samsung in 2014 and since then they have gone on to produce their first tizen based device which is now in use in India.

For those who are still unsure what exactly Tizen is, what it might mean to the general tech consumer, and wondering whether it'll prove a viable competitor to Google's Android, we've taken a closer look at this next gen-operating system.

Samsung’s first tizen smart phone is a low end cheap one used to exercise the strength of tizen os. The volume of sales indicates the level that the tizen os has been accepted and how good it is Samsung has sold over 120,000 of Samsung Z1 smartphones.

The benefits of Tizen are very simple: Tizen is ‘lighter’ than other operating systems,” Samsung writes. “In other words, Tizen requires less processing power and memory, thereby ensuring faster device speeds while consuming less energy. As a result, consumers will benefit from a smoother user experience through the likes of shorter boot time, faster web browsing and seamless multitasking, all the while enjoying longer battery life as written by Samsung.

Now let’s talk more about tizen operating system.

System addict

You've probably gathered that it's a mobile OS and that Samsung has its finger in this particular software pie.

Most casual observers probably aren't aware however that, much like Android before it, Tizen has its roots in Linux and is governed by a 'steering group' comprising of device manufacturers, software developers, and mobile network operators.

Samsung and chip maker Intel are the key drivers of the initiative first galvanised in 2012 - Tizen rose phoenix-like from the ashes of Intel and Nokia's much talked about (but never really made it out into the open) MeeGo OS and Samsung's decision to incorporate its ailing native platform Bada into the new venture.

The aim, although not explicitly stated as such, appears to be to take on the might of Android by extending the reach to third party devs by supporting JavaScript, CSS, and most pertinently, HTML5.

The fledgling OS is not restricted to mobile devices however - the Tizen Foundation envisage the platform's versatility allowing it to power netbooks, tablets, TVs, and in-car systems.

Indeed, this ties in with the Tizen Foundation's gathering of support from no less than 36 other companies including Huawei, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Konami, eBay, and Japanese network NTT Docomo to call on in their quest to broaden commercial possibilities for the platform beyond that of Samsung's initial goal of lessening its dependence on Android.

The latter in particular seems to be a sector ready to embrace the platform with director of the Tizen Foundation and Intel platform and business manager, Chris Croteau, recently commenting that the OS has "a strong base built up in automotive" and that the "automotive grade Linux consortium, led by Toyota and Jaguar and Land Rover, is all based on Tizen."

With time the tizen system will totally overcome android because more companies have accepted it.

For most programmers it will be a let’s do our thing operating system given the fact that it comes from the Linux family of programmers, for those who know Linux is hackers basin because it accepts and performs many task than window operating system.

Tizen Development Units now available

Tizen Developers can now apply for a limited number of development units such as Samsung Phones and NUC based Mini-PCs. Additional Devices like Tablets and TV Sets are expected later.
