Additional features include a Ultra Power Saving Mode, offline web, HERE Maps with offline mapping capability, auto Selfie mode, and also low-light photography but we don’t have specific technology details on this at the moment, most likely a fast aperture will come into play here.

This move is to help boost its Samsung’s smartphone sales and help promote its own services and earn revenue from the Tizen Store. According to another report Samsung intends to initially release the Tizen smartphone in India on 18 January, but then will also launch in China in February 2015, shortly followed by Korea in the first half of 2015.
 

A Samsung official said “We have decided to release the Tizen phone in India on January 18, 2015. The price of the phone is set at less than 100,000 won.” The company plans to sell the Tizen phone through online shopping malls and existing sales networks, instead of staging separate marketing efforts.
