Several new features are included in the update, such as WhatsApp Calling, Ultra Data Saving Mode, as well as the ability to create password-protected memos.

The OTA update is currently rolling out, so it may take a while before it hits your device. However, if you're feeling impatient, you can head to your device's Settings and check for it manually. Other countries, including Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka are expected to get the update next week.

Interesting. This OS is so quiet now although on the market and (should) have a larger userbase than Sailfish...

I think Samsung limit the userbase with the HW at the moment. As soon as they want more users they just put in a galaxy.

How do you pronounce Tizen anyway? In my mind, I have always pronounced the 'i' as in 'pin', not 'pine'. But that could be because I am a Bloody Foreigner™.

I pronounce it As Mike Tizen If I'm using english but not if I talk other languages...than its more like T[pin]zen :D

Re: Samsung Z1 Tizen 2.4 update starts rolling out
 

The official pronunciation is T-eye-zen, but i did first think it was T-ee-zen.

But of course official or not you can bet people will say it either way in the wild

Currently around 1m Tizen smartphones are being sold per quarter so it's a much larger user base than Sailfish. I think so far Samsung has only released Tizen smartphones in India and Bangladesh, if they were to expand availability I don't think it would be very long before Tizen challenged Windows Phone for the #3 spot.

I still wait to hear if Tizen have repented to OpenSource.
As cheap as it is I would be tempted to buy one just to try it out.
As it happens, my company has people going to India soon, so...

I always assumed it was Tizen like Tizer. And that it was developed by these guys:
