Samsung launches the Tizen based Z1 in Bangladesh

 
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.
 

“We have customized the Z1 to meet the unique requirements of the local Bangladeshi consumers for a personal and reliable mobile experience, so they upgrade to a smartphone.”

“The smartphone market in Bangladesh is rapidly evolving, but many consumers are still using their feature phones to remain connected,” said Mr. Choon Soo Moon, Managing Director, Samsung Mobile Bangladesh. “We have customized the Z1 to meet the unique requirements of the local Bangladeshi consumers for a personal and reliable mobile experience, so they upgrade to a smartphone.”
