I don't think this is likely to happen, it would destroy both Samsung's and Huawei's markets in the West. Perhaps Korean and Chinese consumers might switch to the new platforms but I can't see those of us in the Americas and Europe giving up our Google services.

- pjmlp 10y agoFrom native point of Tizen already had two reboots. First it was based on Meego APIs, then it got the C++ dialect from BADA OS (very similar to Symbian) and now they rebooted it again using EFL + C, but adding another C++ API in the process. Native is not always open to everyone, for example for TVs app developers can only use WebApps and need to become a partner for native code. So I doubt that Tizen will ever get an app eco-system that people will bother to use.
