Samsung launches Tizen-powered 4G smartphone Z4
Samsung expanded the Tizen ecosystem with the introduction of the Samsung Z4, a smartphone that packs powerful performance with a simple user experience.
Samsung ended up tending Tizen after most of the other participants in the LiMo Foundation more or less lost interest in the idea of Linux-for-mobile-devices. It comes with a 4.5-inch WVGA (480x800) display and is powered by a 1.5GHz quad core processor (unspecified chipset) coupled with 1GB of RAM.
As mentioned, the phones are being launched in select markets and to start with, only Indian buyers can lay their hands on the Z4 in black, silver or gold colours. The dual-SIM phone runs Tizen OS and supports 4G LTE (VoLTE-ready).
Though the phone stands launched, the exact date of commercial release and the price at which it will be sold in India have not been made public yet.
Samsung Z4 features a 5 Megapixel rear camera with Dual LED flash. Priced at Rs 5,790, the VoLTE smartphone will be available starting May 19 in mobile stores across India. Our affordable Tizen series has been instrumental in catalysing the smartphone upgrade and with Z4, we will offer yet another compelling product to affordable segment consumers-Mr.
Besides attractive design and optimized interface for easy upgrade, the presence of India-relevant localized features like S bike mode and My Money Transfer have also contributed to the popularity of Z series in India. It gives users the option to access latest news in their preferred local language with just a swipe on their home screen. The company claims that both front and rear cameras on Samsung Z4 are "optimised for social media" and offer features focused on convenience and creativity.
The Z4 comes with a 4.5 inch display with 2.5D glass.
Connectivity-wise, the Samsung Z4 offers 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, USB 2.0 and Global Positioning System. But Samsung's flagship smartphones have long persisted with Android, there's no sign of that changing and phones outsell wearables by a very considerable margin.
