Samsung Z1

The Samsung Z1 brings with it the company’s proprietary OS, Tizen. The Tizen operating system was first launched in January 2012, after which the company launched its first device powered by Tizen in India on January 5, 2015. The updated/newer versions of this device are Samsung Z2 and the Samsung Z3. Coming back to the Samsung Z1, it has a compact footprint of 120.4 x 63.2 x 9.7mm with the help of its small screen size. The Z1 can be bought in white, black, and wine Red colour variants.

The Samsung Z1 uses PLS TFT technology with its 4-inch display. The PLS technology works similar to the LG’s IPS technology; it helps in keeping the colours on display unchanged when viewed from various angles. The display has a pixel density of 233 PPI which is acceptable but not astonishing. If you are looking for HD devices, then please visit here. The Samsung Z1 has a very odd resolution primary camera of 3.15-megapixels, and there is no autofocus. However, Samsung was generous enough to provide with an LED flash. A VGA camera is equipped on the front for video calls and selfies. The video recording is performed with 480p resolution at 15 frames per second on the Samsung Z1.

As the Samsung Z1 comes with Tizen OS, which according to Samsung was designed to work with less processing power,  it has a dual-core processor instead of a quad-core processor. To compensate for the lower internal storage of 4GB, Samsung has equipped the device with a dedicated microSD card slot supporting memory cards up to 64GB. The Tizen OS 2.3 that the Samsung Z1 comes with has its application store just like the Play Store in Android devices, and App Store in Apple devices, and it is known as Tizen Sore.

A 1,500 mAh battery that the device comes with can keep the Z1 up and running for 8 hours of 3G talk time. The Samsung Z1 has two SIM card slots with 3G network support for dual-SIM connectivity.
