From a developer's perspective - an interesting device because it works under a full-featured Linux kernel, has a package manager, a large number of development tools. In theory, you can put your phone interpreters ruby, python, etc. prilozhenki and write in these languages. I tried to run it on examples from Tizen SDK, not installed. The problem is, most likely, in the absence of root rights. Standard means (sdb root on) work with root privileges did not work (on the emulator, by the way, it works).
From the perspective of the average user - uninteresting empty. No store applications. There dialer, contacts, messages, calendar, e-mail client, a radio, a voice recorder, a file manager. In general, a standard set as in any budget android smartphone without samsungovskogo debris. Application (* .tpk) has not yet been found on the net (probably bad looking). Overall UI - copy samsungovskogo 5x Android versions. The camera, by the way, full HD video can not be removed from Tizen 2.4.0.1. Judging by the reviews, the previous version (2.4.0.0), this possibility was. It should be noted that there is a recovery and download mode, similar samsungovskim Android smartphones.
The smartphone consumes battery power sparingly. Day 4 can live with an average load.
In general, Tizen in this device is much like Android.
Tizen itself is an interesting platform, but the average user is unattractive due to the lack of applications. Of the shortcomings, a small community should be noted, but I am sure that the situation will soon change.
Unfortunately, now I have a brick on my hands after an unsuccessful firmware ...
