Tizen Vs Android Wear Operating System: Which Is Better?

This year, within four months, it has set up a new board of operating systems. First came the battle for PC operating systems, later mobile and now we shrink to talk about the platform that take on our Smartwatch.

Android Wear Operating System

Google Android Wear are looking for a similar model to it did with Android. Create a “universal” platform that allows any manufacturer to create his watch operating system without worrying too much about the software side. So far it has already found five partners (ASUS, LG, Motorola, Samsung and Sony) and all indications are that next year many other will join. The interface part of a token system in which sliding your finger vertically can jump from one application to another while doing so can navigate horizontally through the menus of each. All touch, although some models are beginning to incorporate a physical button as well.

Android Wear platform is based on the already settled with Google Now. It provide contextual information that is helpful at all times. On the one hand, we will have the notifications come from a mobile phone, which can respond from the watch itself with predefined messages, but here we do not have answers depending on the content.

Although it is the platform that most watches are available today, there are some gaps regarding the competition. In fact, the manufacturers have confirmed that some of its models has sensors that currently are not compatible with the current version of Android Wear. All indications are that before the year is out we will review and, with it, new features and enhancements.

Tizen Operating System

When a year ago Samsung introduced its first smartwatch yet there was not Apple Watch or Android Wear, at least not publicly. The Koreans decided to bet on their own platform and even the original experience with the Galaxy Gear did not quite jell, with Tizen they have created the basis for their smartwatches.

With Gear S arrived at peak point in the brief but intense life as a platform Tizen. The great differential point is found in the mobile autonomy. Have SIM card gives you independence and connectivity. Something that makes it unique as such can play sports and go out alone with clock and a Bluetooth headset to listen to music and go to receive information.

While Android Wear is virtually unchanged from one device to another, in the case of Samsung Tizen there are big differences between the Gear Fit 2 and Gear S. The form factor is decisive and here Koreans have decided to make his last reference model and the most complete of the three (four if you count Gear 2 Neo) models that have this platform.
