Samsung on Tuesday unwrapped its new smartphone using the Tizen platform, a move aimed at breaking away from Googles Android and staking a claim to the Internet of Things. The South Korean consumer electronics colossus showed off the Samsung Z, its first Tizen-powered smartphone, in a major shift away from the ubiquitous Android operating system used in the majority of its devices. Samsung touted Tizen as a platform not just for phones, but for a range of connected devices from home appliances to door locks and watches which may communicate with one another in the future. The unveiling came a day after Apple — a few blocks away in San Francisco — unveiled a coming new version of its iOS mobile operating system with capabilities that could have iPhones, iPads, and iPod touch devices vying for that same spot in the middle of a what is billed as the booming Internet-of-Things.
