The Samsung Tizen Z1 is the first commercially available phone running Samsung's home-brewed TizenOS. The implemention, UI elements are quite similar to Samsung's TouchWiz skin for Android. But Tizen seems to perform slightly better on the lower-end hardware of the Z1. But this is still more of an experiment than a finished product. There's no app-ecosystem to speak off and with Android smartphones re-defining the meaning of being affordable, TizenOS and Samsung Z1 might have a tough time around. You can watch our Full-Review above with the brief summar of pros/cons below alongwith our detailed scoring.
