Samsung's first Tizen powered smartphones are set to hit the market in Q2 of this year according to a report by
Reuters.
Yoon Han-kil, senior vice president of Samsung's product strategy team,
said that the first phone to launch around the end of the second
quarter will be a high end model, with the next a more mid-range effort.
He also said that "Android still needs to be our main business."
Samsung
has previously tried to launch Tizen smartphones through Orange and NTT
Docomo but failed due to "poor market conditions." Seemingly the timing
is now better, and would follow Samsung's Tizen powered wearables, the
Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo to market.
