However, the more original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) that switch to Tizen, the more even the playing field becomes.

However, it remains to be determined if other smart TV manufacturers with access to Tizen OS would be able to harvest the platform’s benefits as well as Samsung, has. Furthermore, Samsung has an unparalleled retail network and some of the best hardware on its side. However, Samsung will receive royalties from these partnerships, so it’s a win-win for everyone involved with the Tizen platform. Samsung invited potential competitors to respond by introducing its licensing scheme. Samsung’s success in the smart TV industry may be attributed largely to the Tizen OS, which makes the Tizen TV Platform Licensing service all the more exciting. Since its introduction in 2015, Samsung has held a monopoly on the TV market with its proprietary Tizen OS platform. The secret to Samsung’s successful TVs has been leaked to competitors. Bauhn, meantime, will sell its first Tizen OS smart TV, a 65-inch model priced at AUD 699 / $454, only through Aldi stores in several countries. The Tizen OS TV from Akai will be sold by Harvey Norman, while The Good Guys will sell the Tizen OS TVs from Linsar. Companies are planning launches in Australia, New Zealand, France, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom for their smart TVs powered by the Tizen OS. Now that the business has agreed with three smart TV makers interested in adopting Tizen OS for their new TV models, the program can be considered a success.Īkai, Bauhn, and Linsar are the three television manufacturers that will implement Samsung’s Tizen operating system. Some may remember that at SDC 21 last year, Samsung announced that it would license its innovative TV platform, Tizen, to competing brands.

A new version of Tizen comes out every year in Samsung's new TV line-up but the company does not bring new generations of Tizen to existing TVs. Tizen has powered Samsung Smart TVs since 2015. The TVs are expected to initially appear in Australia, New Zealand, UK, France, Italy, and Spain. Initially, a 65-inch Bauhn 4K LCD TV with Tizen will go on sale in Aldi stores across several countries (priced at $699 AUD in Australia), while Linsar TVs with Tizen will be sold by The Good Guys and Akai TVs with Tizen sold by Harvey Norman. 'We worked hard with Samsung over several months to secure this deal and we are confident that both Samsung and Tempo will benefit significantly,' a spokesperson for Tempo said. Samsung has struck a deal with Tempo to integrate Tizen with apps for popular streaming services into three of the company's TV brands, according to a report by ChannelNews. Like LG's webOS, Samsung's Tizen operating system can now be found in Smart TVs from other brands in Australia, New Zealand and Europe.
