Google Upset With samsung For Favoring its Tizen Powered watches? by Nobody: 11:14am On Jul 18, 2014
You knew that it would eventually come
to this. Google's Larry Page is
supposedly upset with Samsung for
putting more time and effort into the
latter's Tizen powered smartwatches,
than the Samsung Gear Live timepiece.
That wearable is driven by Google's
Android Wear platform. Page and
Samsung Vice Chairman Jay Y. Lee
apparently had the kind of meeting
where you would want to be a fly on
the wall. The room was said to be thick
with tension between the two executives.
Last year, there was talk that Samsung
would release a series of Tizen powered
smartphones as a way to show Google
that it was Samsung behind the success
that Android has enjoyed over the last
few years. In that scenario, Samsung was
hoping that by duplicating the success of
the Android driven Galaxy line, it could
eventually focus entirely on Tizen
handsets and reduce its reliance on
Google.
Google wants Samsung to stop producing
apps with the look of Android, and it
wants Samsung to put as much time
into its Android Wear timepiece as it
does with the watches on the Tizen
platform. Keep in mind that Samsung
has already sent out an update that
changed the OS on its original Galaxy
Gear smartwatch from Android to
Tizen .
If indeed Google is getting angry, thinking
that Samsung is doing more for its
Tizen powered smartwatches, it might
only serve to prove that Google needs
Samsung more than Samsung needs
Android.
