Samsung: 'the Tizen phone will be out in August or September, and this will be in the high-end category'

I like the idea of having another open platform on the market in case Android get complacent. We can have another choice just that Android take 5 years to get here and I don't one to buy an incomplete product.

So please Samsung and Intel put in your best resources to make it work!

Android/Google will never be complacent. If there ever be one that's complacent out of the two, it'll be Samsung. And it has already started... You've got the wrong picture.

not that im not a fan of some competition and choice in OS but we already have Windows, Apple, Android, and Blackberry. How many more do we need? Granted windows and blackberry have been completely lackluster since 2009 but arent we just going to confuse the midless billions in this world with too many choices?

Feel your pain of buying an incomplete product.

Okay. Assuming the Wave series are an "incomplete" product with reference to your comment.
Why don't you blame Samsung for making an "incomplete" series instead of blaming him for buying one?

won't happen, unless you want to wait for the android project on xda to get calling functionality it's probably best to throw any wave devices away at this point.

The only thing thats going to piss me off is if they start making better more high end phones on tizen instead of android. if you want to add another OS in this world, at least make it equal with the same phones. I actually quite a few people that would gladly had an Android Nokia phone or a Windows Samsung Galaxy S3 phone.

Yes ... they are looking at how Google can catch every vendor by their balls some day ... so they are making first move away from that situation ... better be safe than sorry as saying goes and who knows if the succeed then you will have both google and apple suing samsung in tandem :)

They want their own OS. They are a big Company now, they have all the capabilities to leave the android OS

Actually, the only company that combines high-end hardware development and OS development is Samsung, after Nokia quitting on MeeGo & Symbian OSs.
Samsung has now a GREAT opportunity to rule them ALL now.
I just wish that TIZEN will receive the appropriate "love" from software devs...

Yes i agree.

(1) Sony is a case of Good HW with failed SW implementation as always

(2) HTC is all about Apple style now ... fool the client with exteriors and by attacking the competition. No wonder both sink (and stink)

(3) Nokia : Right Company with a Wrong OS

I don't understand why you guys hates Apple for no reason does Samsung bay you or something! I'm Android user I own 4 Android device S3, note 2, xperia T and xperia S and still respect Apple for what they did.

BTW if there's no IOS no Android sample as that dislike me now .

I would actually like to see ms keep their apps on their own platform, and the same goes with Google. I think its funny when people buy a ms phone and expect apps from Google. Don't buy a Google phone expecting ms apps.

And the phone still runs flawlessly. My Brother's wife has a Wave II phone. Runs excellent.
