Android can survive even if Samsung would adopt Tizen
Last Friday in an interview with Bloomberg, Samsung gave us more details about their upcoming Tizen smartphone. Surprisingly or not Samsung said that “the Tizen phone will be out in August or September, and this will be in the high-end category”. For those who don’t know, Tizen is an open source project formed from Nokia and Intel’s MeeGo and Samsung’s Bada.
Now there are three things that ring a bell and happened last week: at first it was Andy Rubin departure, then Galaxy S4 event and the last one was this interview with the executive vice president of Samsung’s mobile business Lee Young Hee.
Before getting more into this discussion I should also mention that some analysts think that Samsung is planning a “great OS escape” in 1-2 years. It could be true, but I don’t think that’s gonna happen anytime soon. But in the event this would happen, what would Android do ?
