Many
of you all may live in an illusion that there are only Android, iOS,
Windows Phone and BlackBerry 10 operating systems, but there are
other mobile operating systems as well that are in the development
and they are all Linux-based.
As
we all know that Google’s Android OS is one such OS that based on
Linux; however, it is very much different than typical Linux
distributions. When it comes to talk about other smart-phone
platforms that are especially Canonical’s Ubuntu Phone are
extremely close to typical Linux system.
Without
wasting your precious time on discussion, I am going to list-out a
list of 4 most awaited Linux based Smart-phone operating systems that
you can check-out:
Amazon’s
Fire OS is the most advanced quality OS that initially used on Kindle
Fire tablets and now it will arrive on the Fire Phone smart-phone
that is actually based on Android. If you are thinking that Fire OS
is another rebranded version of the Android open source project, you
are wrong as it is not rebranded version with Google’s stuff
stripped out.
Being
a more spilt of Android, this new OS is moving in its own direction.
Now, you can look at Amazon’s specification page, where new Kindle
Fire models are considered as compatible with Android.
Lots of
computers users are making use of a web browser for different stuffs,
but various people prefer to use native apps on smart-phones.
However, these are such apps that are limited to a single OS, but
Mozilla is looking to bring one such open web for smart-phones and
want to replace those native apps with web apps.
Currently,
Tizen has gained huge popularity in the market as it is an
open-source platform that mainly linked with Samsung. Mainly, this OS
is considered as the sunshade of the Linux foundation. We all know
that Samsung’s own Android Galaxy devices are running on the
TouchWiz skin as the company has also given its own look while Tizen
is similar to TouchWiz.
Considered
as the backbone for Samsung, this OS can push company forward and
give tough competition to other Oss. However, if company decides to
run off from Google Android, it can easily adopt Tizen on its next
Galaxy S phone.
When it
comes to talk about Palm’s webOS, the OS was seen on the Palm Pre
as well as Palm Pixi as it is widely considered as the best OS of its
time. In the year 2010, HP got hold on Palm as well as webOS as the
company had very big plans for this OS like they wanted to make use
of it on different smartphones, tablets, and even printers.
Apart from this, the company was looking for launching PCs running on
WebOS.
So, these were the top 4
most awaited smart-phone operating systems that you should check-out.
