Yeah, why they don't enforce this is baffling. I can give them a break for letting their OEM's take their time with OS updates, but not requiring their OEM's to issue security patches is negligent.
- izacus 10y agoMicrosoft enforced that and OEMs decided they'd rather build Android phones than Windows Phone ones. The rest is history.
- pjmlp 10y agoI think having an OS available for free was more relevant.
- MichaelGG 10y agoYeah, it's not like Samsung can go make iOS phones. And I highly doubt any of these hardware OEMs could possibly pull off a software project that doesn't suck, let alone a whole OS and dev ecosystem.
- izacus 10y agoSamsung already releases phones running Tizen to have a side bet against Android. The quality of software is not very important when your only competitor builds phones that are significantly more expensive.
- pjmlp 10y agoTizen is a joke for app developers, it was already rebooted so many times, no one serious would spend a second trying to target the platform. 1 - Meego reborn as Tizen 2 - Tizen gets the Bada C++ SDK, with its Symbian C++ like flavour 3 - Enlightment guys join Tizen 4 - C++ SDK gets kicked out and replaced by Enlightment C libraries 5 - Developers complain that Tizen 2.3 drops C++ and is a C only experience 6 - Samsung announces support for .NET Core as high level native Tizen tooling Really, what SDK are they going to release next?!
