Should Samsung Drop Android for Tizen ?

 

As we all know , Samsung is working on it's tizen OS for a while . And frankly there are no Mobile devices running it , but Samsung slowly is releasing this OS with a camera and now with the Samsung Gear devices . With this Samsung is slowly releasing the fact that Tizen will be a major OS in the Samsung devices . Currently its in developing stage . No one can get rid of the fact that the royalty that Samsung has in terms of Mobile services is because success of Galaxy Series  which runs on Android yeah !

 

And without that nothing could have happened . But with this one question arises ? After the Tizen is fully developed Will Samsung drop Android ? There are two types of answers obviously : Yes or No , and it may differ from people to people . But in my case No , never . Samsung over it's development years has realised the importance of Android , and they can never afford to do that and risk their market share . Every new thing needs new time to mature and so will be Tizen . It will at-least be 3 years more for the apps development which will the major issue .

 

Tizen apps are coded via C++ and the extension .tpk , while Android apps are coded in Java with the .apk extension , which directly makes impossible to run apks on it . But through the app called APCL , it is possible to run .apk within .tpk . Well that proves that there will be no problem of apps for Tizen guys until the OS is fully developed . Read my article about IS ANDROID THE BASE OF APPS FOR EVERY NEW OR UPCOMING OPERATING SYSTEM'S? here . Samsung want's to be leader in every sector of technology , right ?

 

Imagine if he a Tizen phone is launched , but it's sales won't be as high as Galaxy series , which is famous specially in India , capturing many areas of market . Android soon will be the leading OS in the world , due it's increasing popularity . There are two situations that Samsung not may , it will face : 1.Whether to drop Android 2. Use it along with Tizen . 2nd situation feels much more logical . Samsung from it's existence is known to take advantage of every thing possible  and it really makes everything Consumer Appealing . Hopes are high from Samsung and there's no melodrama expected from them.

 

The bright side maybe not to drop Android completely , but use it to it's core until the full maturation of Tizen and to launch the both version of it's flagships running Android and Tizen ,and to allow to run .apks within .tpks
