A few weeks ago we saw the Samsung Z1 released in India, and today Samsung Mobile Bangladesh has announced the launch of the Samsung Z1 in Bangladesh. Consumers will be able to experience light weight Tizen speed, as well as long-lasting battery performance and also features ‘Ultra Power Saving Mode’ that gives the Z1 a standby time of up to 18 hours from as little as 10% charge.
