  • 2GB RAM
  • Tizen OS 2.2.1

  • 8MP rear camera with LED flash and a 2.1MP front-facing camera

The Samsung Z also takes some software features that were found on the recently released Galaxy S5. It features Download Booster which can combines Wi-Fi and cellular network to boost your download speeds. Its official price hasn't been announced yet. Although they've already released Tizen based fitness trackers, smart watches and even has plans for Tizen powered TVs, Samsung needs even more Tizen powered devices in the ecosystem if it wants to give it a boost or else it will also die like Bada OS one day.
