Samsung Z5 release date, specs news 2016: Another Tizen OS-based smartphone nearing launch?

Two Samsung devices, the rumored Galaxy Tab 4 Advanced and the Galaxy J2 (2016), have recently been spotted at two different benchmarking sites, hinting at their upcoming arrival. Amid talks and leaks circulating about a number of smartphones, Samsung Z5 joins  the list of rumored Samsung devices.

Samsung Z5 release date, specs news 2016: Another Tizen OS-based smartphone nearing launch?


A Samsung Z5 was recently spotted on Zauba, a website that lists products entering India. According to the listing, 310 units of a mobile phone codenamed "SM-Z510FD" have been imported from Vietnam. The handset was described as "ASSY METAL REAR UNIT," which was presumed to mean that it would feature a full-metal build and if not, at least mostly metal.

The Samsung Z5 is expected to come out with Samsung's Tizen operating system (OS), which was first seen in the Samsung Z1 and again in the Z3. Furthermore, the Z5 is expected to bring the third version of the OS.

The rumors surrounding the Z5 handset suggest that the handset will be powered by a quad-core processor clocked at 1.5 GHz and 2 GB of random access memory (RAM). Included in the rumored internal specifications is the 8 GB expandable storage and 3,000 milliampere hour (mAh) battery. As for the design, a 5 megapixel (MP) snapper is rumored to sit at the top of a 5-inch display while an 8 MP main camera adorns the back.

The Samsung Z3 targets the mid-market, so fans are expecting the Z5 to do so as well. The Z1 and Z3 were first released in India, but later on spread to neighboring countries such as Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. These Tizen-based smartphones are not readily available in the United States, and reports state that it is unlikely for the Z5 to come to the Western shores.

Samsung hasn't officially announced a release date, but if the launch dates of previous Samsung Z devices were taken into consideration, industry watchers can expect to see the phone in the market by the fourth quarter of 2016.
