Deja Vu?
In June last year Samsung announced the Z, which was supposed to be the company’s first ever smartphone running on their homebrewed Tizen OS. We say supposed to be because it was quietly killed a few months later, and never saw the light of day. A few days ago Samsung again announced, and finally launched their first commercially available Tizen-powered smartphone, the Z1 which has taken a hit in the hardware department compared to the Samsung Z.
