It’s been over a year since rumors and statements suggested Samsung’s Bada OS was due to be terminated, but that some form of it would live on within the open-source Tizen OS. Now, Samsung exec Won-Pyo Hong has confirmed as such with Korean news agency Yonhap. Rather than a complete fusion of the two, Tizen will select only the best qualities of the featurephone-friendly Bada for assimilation. Samsung’s Tizen 2.0-based handsets arriving in 2013 will put the final nail in Bada’s coffin, but out of respect for its fallen comrade, Tizen will obligingly run apps designed for the retired OS. Like some kind of mobile software Highlander, Tizen is now drawing power from several perished peers, and has even set its sights on the mighty Android. There can be only one.Filed under: Cellphones, Software, Mobile, SamsungCommentsVia: The VergeSource: Yonhap
