Written By Unknown on Senin, 02 Juni 2014 | 16.01

Samsung on Monday introduced its first smartphone built around the Tizen operating system, with a TV running the OS planned for next year.

Featuring a 4.8-inch HD Super AMOLED display and a 2.3 GHz Quad-core application processor, the Samsung Z, described by the South Korean company as the first commercially available Tizen smartphone, will run Tizen 2.2.1.

It has a built-in fingerprint sensor and an ultra power-saving mode that lets the phone stay in operation even at minimal battery levels in emergencies. The device has 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal memory and a microSD slot that supports up to 64GB.

The Samsung Z will be on show at the Tizen Developer Conference in San Francisco, which starts Tuesday. It will be available in the third quarter in Russia with plans to expand to other markets.

Samsung said additional applications for the device can be accessed through the Tizen Store at the launch of the Samsung Z, with plans for an apps contest in Russia and CIS countries and a one-year promotional program for developers.

The company, which has designed its Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo smartwatches around Tizen, plans to launch TVs and other devices around the Linux based operating system that it backs with Intel and some other key players.

"We expect to launch Tizen-based TVs in 2015," a Samsung representative wrote Monday via email. "Samsung is continually working with Tizen to develop the most innovative technology and solidify its position as the leader in the TV market," the representative added.

Samsung plans to release the software development kit for its Tizen TV in July, ahead of launching the TVs.

The company's long-term aim is to get the operating system into a variety of devices. "Samsung is committed to developing the Tizen ecosystem with a wide range of Tizen-based product categories, including mobile devices, wearable technology and of course, TVs," the representative said.

Developers can now virtually see all necessary TV functions without a physical TV, Samsung said in a post. "Developers can also remotely modify code on their PCs with the new debugging feature, whereas in the past they had to connect directly to the TV's software to correct application errors," it added.

SDK Beta also provides various scenarios including Smart Interaction that allows users to control their TVs with simple hand gestures and voice commands, and a multi-screen feature, which can be used to link a TV with various devices including mobile and wearable gadgets.
