Samsung Z1, the budget-priced Smartphone powered by Tizen OS, is reportedly well. Samsung has sold 1 million Tizen Z1 units in 6 months, which is a commendable feat for a budget Smartphone in the crowded markets of India and other South-East Asian countries.

To celebrate 1 million sales, Samsung will release a special Z1 Gold color variant in the near future. Samsung will also bundle new apps and games with the upcoming Tizen Z1 gold variant, which will probably be released in July.

The limiting factor for the Samsung Tizen Z1 isn't the hardware itself, but the software. Tizen OS isn't even close to Android OS when it comes to availability of apps, and people love apps. Despite that, the Samsung Z1 is a good handset for its price. It will definitely go well with a first-time Smartphone buyer on a strict budget.
