Samsung Bada OS is a New Mobile Operating System for Smartphones
Samsung is betting huge on its core smartphone business with Samsung Bada OS. This is Samsung’s own operating system for smartphones where Samsung Wave S8500 is the first mobile phone that will ever use this OS. They unveiled this in-house operating system last December 2009. Perhaps dissatisfied with the current Google Android-mania, Samsung said it is pushing through with the development of the Bada operating sytem. The electronics giant is fully committed to the implementation of Bada. They made the Software Development Kit for Bada available to the public and initiated a Developers Challenge for Bada app developers. The winners will share the prize money totaling $2.7 million. This is a proof of Samsung’s commitment to Bada OS.
