South Korean company Samsung announced plans to end Bada. The platform will be combined with the open source Tizen operating system, born from the ashes of MeeGo.
According to the president of Samsung Media Solutions Center, the merger will occur after entering the market Tizen-devices. Tizen-based smartphones will appear in 2013. This was the Korean manufacturer reported in January.
New smartphones will also be able to work with Bada-oriented applications, which will play in favor of the operating system with a weak application portfolio. However, to upgrade the device to the Bada to Tizen will not succeed.
"It is better to consider it not as a merger, but as a transition from the old quality to the new",
- noted the head of Samsung, implying the incompliance of Bada with the requirements of modern smartphones.
