Samsung confirms that the Tizen OS will live on for smart TVs
At the I/O 2021, Google and Samsung announced the integration of Tizen OS with the Wear OS in order to develop a unified wearable platform. Now, it’s confirmed that the next Galaxy Watches will run Google’s Wear OS. So, what about the Tizen OS, is it discontinued?
No! Samsung has recently disclosed that it’s own developed Tizen OS will live on, and it will continue to come with future smart TVs. As the Tizen OS is widely used in Samsung’s smart TVs, some media reporters asked whether the company will also abandon this system on TVs or not.
Samsung official explained that its partnership with Google only resolves around smartwatches, and has nothing to do with Tizen OS on Samsung TVs. “Tizen still is the default platform for our smart TVs going forward,” said a Samsung spokesperson.
According to the company’s data, last year, its smart TV sales accounted for 31.8% globally, maintaining its position as the world’s largest TV brand for 15 consecutive years. Furthermore, 12.7% of global smart TVs were equipped with Samsung’s Tizen OS, which is the most used smart TV operating system.

Samsung’s Galaxy S21 FE now supports the Camera Assistant app. The company has silently brought this upgrade to one of its popular Fan Edition smartphones. However, some Camera Assistant features available in flagship phones don’t arrive on the S21 FE.
Folks over at SamMobile highlight that Camera Assistant support for Galaxy S21 FE went live in January this year. It’s worth noting that the Camera Assistant app received its last update in January, which probably made the S21 FE-supported model.
Camera Assistant is a free-to-download app available on the Galaxy Store. Support for S21 FE was initially planned to arrive with a One UI 6.0 upgrade. The company has also fulfilled its promise, while this significant development didn’t fall under our radar.
Once downloaded, you will be able to make changes to the stock camera application. Camera Assistant allows you to bring a 2x zoom button to the camera viewfinder, picture softening, burst shot when using the timer, distortion correction, and disable long press video recording.

Samsung Care+ is a stunning service that users can combine with the device while purchasing. In a recent development, Samsung announced Galaxy users will now be able to raise two claims per year.
The Samsung Care+ program now covers two claims per year in India. The new policy applies to all kinds of Care+ plans that include Accidental and Liquid Damage Protection and Screen Protection only. Previously, it covered two claims within two years.
It’s a pretty significant decision the company has taken given consumer satisfaction. We’ve observed cases of consumer dissatisfaction with authorized Samsung centers and staff assigned there. They either lack idea about the latest flagship products or delay unusually.
The company offers the Care+ subscription for free with flagship devices in select countries. Paying a one-time fee, you can raise a claim at authorized Samsung service centers.
It ensures your Galaxy device is repaired through an official channel at a minimal cost. Samsung’s Care+ program is available for smartphones, laptops, tablets, and other devices.

So it’s now almost confirmed that the Samsung Galaxy Ring would be available in 9 sizes. Earlier, the company’s upcoming smart device was spotted in 8 variants. Now, the latest listing confirms the existence of the ninth version, which was missing in the past.
