USA Today published a report that the coming Galaxy Gear 2 has a place with Androidem to come with an operating system directly from Samsung, i.e. with Tizen. It is said that this will happen because Samsung wants to focus more on the development of its own software and services and Android does not provide such options. Samsung will probably unveil its second generation watch Galaxy Gear next week at Mobile World Congress, so we'll soon find out if this is true.
However, there is a catch. When it comes to "smartwatches", it's more about their own capabilities, while the operating system comes second. Anyway, the integration of Tizen into the Galaxy The Gear 2 would give Samsung independence from its own software for Android (TouchWiz), so this watch would be compatible with devices from other manufacturers.
