Samsung will come through with "several" Tizen smartphones later this year, says report

Samsung has already made it quite clear that its Tizen OS is here to stay, despite the criticism from around the mobile industry. As a long-term goal, the company sees the software running on all of its products, and believes that the Linux-based platform will be essential as smart home devices become commonplace. The anti-Tizen sentiment stems from the belief that it will never offer a viable alternative to the likes of Google's Android, particularly since the latter boasts a rich ecosystem and app base. But as per sources of Reuters, Sammy will furnish us with "several" new smartphones later on this year, of "varying" price points.
