"Tizen: solid security and many features, some things to improve...."
4/5
What do you like best about Tizen?

I greatly appreciated the security offered by the Tizen operating system; it is not possible to install apps outside the operating system to ensure security. It is very practical and has many features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tizen?

The thing I liked least about the Tizen operating system is that when it performs software updates (on Smart TV), it slows down the device, creating lag issues to the point that you have to turn off and turn on the device, in this case the SMART TV. Additionally, there are many useless pre-installed apps on the device that you cannot uninstall, which is very annoying. The search for apps gives you unrelated results, providing you with useless things. From such an operating system, I expect better!!!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Stable, User-Friendly, But Limited in Customization"
4/5
What do you like best about Tizen?

I appreciate how Tizen offers fast boot times and smooth multitasking, which ensures a stable experience, even on budget TVs. The minimalistic and user-friendly interface makes it easy to navigate. I also love the tight integration with smart home controls like Bixby, Alexa, and Google Assistant, making it convenient to manage my smart home devices. Moreover, the pre-installed major streaming apps like Netflix, Prime Video, and Disney Hotstar enhance my viewing experience, providing seamless access to my favorite content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tizen?

I find the limited app ecosystem restrictive, as it only allows pre-installed apps like Netflix, Prime Video, and Disney Hotstar, and restricts the installation of new software. This limitation affects my ability to customize my experience further. Additionally, data transfer is restricted as it cannot be done to non-Samsung devices lacking Tizen compatibility. Customization options are limited since third-party launchers and deeper interface personalization using metas and other software are not possible. Also, I encounter bloatware issues due to the presence of unwanted third-party apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fast, Lightweight and Versatile, But Limited Apps"
5/5
What do you like best about Tizen?

I like that Tizen is super fast and lightweight, with a clean and simple interface. It gives freedom to all developers and works on many devices. This makes it particularly helpful for watching TVs and running appliances smoothly without lag, and I use it for applications like Netflix and YouTube. I also appreciate the security it offers for smart devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tizen?

Compared to Android or Apple, Tizen has fewer apps, fewer games, and slow updates. Some popular apps are missing, the developer support is weaker, and the updates are inconsistent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4/5
What do you like best about Tizen?

There are a lot of options to download third-party applications to your watch, unlike Apple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tizen?

Can do with a little less lag sometimes.

But, I also doubt it is because I am using the first version of the Samsung Galaxy watch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
