Vaporware? Just plain old doomed off the bat? It certainly looked like the Tizen project would go the way of the dodo before it could even get a fair chance to take off, but thanks to satisfactory sales numbers posted by Samsung's Z1 in India and Bangladesh, the fledgling mobile OS should live to fight another day. Clearly, there's no immediate danger for Android, iOS or even Windows Phone or BlackBerry OS, yet a… Continue reading Samsung doesn’t give up on Tizen, reportedly preps duo of Z1 sequels Related posts: Fujitsu and NEC Reportedly Planning Tizen-Based Smartphones for 2014 Samsung reportedly sold over 50,000 Tizen-based Samsung Z1 in India since Launch Samsung puts out Tizen ‘flood’ warning, with focus on TVs and smart appliances The post Samsung doesn’t give up on Tizen, reportedly preps duo of Z1 sequels appeared first on GadgeTell.      • Email to a friend • Article Search • View comments • Track comments •   HTC One E8, Desire Eye and Butterfly S start receiving Lollipop in Asia Given how early HTC promised One M7 and M8's Android 5.0 bumps would be completed, it's a bitter disappointment to see no other Taiwan-produced phone on Lollipop yet.

Even worse, Samsung doesn't have the tools to get back in the fight and keep Motorola or Huawei at arm's length, fumbling and bumbling with subpar, overpriced entry-level gear.

America's most popular wireless service provider took an inexplicably long time to roll out Lollipop treats for one of the best 2014 flagships.
