Samsung to release "something big" at CES 2013

Samsung tells consumers to "get ready" for a big reveal at this years CES. Will it be the successor to the Galaxy S3?



The World is Waiting
A post and video on Samsung's blog suggest that a new product will be revealed at CES, but not much
information is given. So what could it be? Can it be the revealing of the successor to the Galaxy S3, the Galaxy S4? Rumors have circled around that the Galaxy S4 is coming and could potentially feature a quad core processor, a 13 megapixel camera, and an unbreakable screen (We'll see about that). Although Samsung has stated that the release for the S4 will not be in early 2013.

Will it be the unveiling of Samsung's first phone featuring Tizen OS? One things for sure, Samsung has confirmed that shipments of their first phones featuring Tizen will be shipped out this year.

If you haven't already read about it, Tizen is the next open source OS created by the Linux Foundation. All you Linux users can jump for joy as this is a big step forward for open source platforms.




More info on taken from the Tizen website:
Tizen is an open source, standards-based software platform supported by leading mobile operators, device manufacturers, and silicon suppliers for multiple device categories such as smartphones, tablets, netbooks, in-vehicle infotainment devices, and smart TVs. Tizen offers an innovative operating system, applications, and a user experience that consumers can take from device to device.
The Tizen project resides within the Linux Foundation and is governed by a Technical Steering Group. The Technical Steering Group is the primary decision-making body for the open source project, with a focus on platform development and delivery, along with the formation of working groups to support device verticals.
The Tizen Association has been formed to guide the industry role of Tizen, including gathering of requirements, identification and facilitation of service models, and overall industry marketing and education.
Tizen provides a robust and flexible environment for application developers, based on HTML5. With HTML5's robust capabilities and cross platform flexibility, it is rapidly becoming the preferred development environment for mobile apps and services. The Tizen SDK and API allow developers to use HTML5 and related web technologies to write applications that run across multiple device segments.
For now the world will have to wait two more days to see what Samsung has in-store for us "Techie" consumers.
