Today, Samsung have released the eagerly awaited Tizen 2.4 update for the Samsung Z1 Smartphone in Bangladesh. This follows the release of the Tizen 2.4 Operating System (OS) update to the Indian market a couple of weeks ago, with the promise it will be released to Bangladesh following successful testing. Well, the testing has finished and the 257.6MB Over the Air (OTA) update is available immediately to download.
The Z1 originally launched with Tizen 2.3, but following the launch of the Tizen 2.4 Beta Software Test Program in India, users have been looking forward to getting the final Tizen 2.4 release for their device.
