Samsung May Dump Tizen For Android In Its Next Smartwatch

Samsung May Dump Tizen For Android In Its Next Smartwatch

South Korean electronics giant, Samsung is reportedly working on new wearables rumoured to run Andriod. The galaxy club claimed that Samsung is developing two devices.

These two devices have model numbers SM-R86x and SM-R87x which are possibly part of the Galaxy Watch Active 3 or Active 4 series.

Samsung Gear Live from 2014 was the last smartwatch to run on Andriod wear rather than Wear OS. The company pivoted to its own Tizen OS for wearables. But it looks like it might go back to Google's OS at least for some other Andriod- based interface, according to a post shared on Twitter that Samsung's new watch " will use Andriod to replace Tizen" by  Ice Universe.

Bloomberg had claimed last year that Google is also trying to convince Samsung to drop Bixby and the Samsung App store. 

If the next Galaxy Watch uses Wear OS or a new custom version of Android, one can't help but wonder if Samsung will continue to develop Tizen OS or offer an experience that's just as good.
