Here’s my guide on customizing your Android TV home screen. Newer models changed their color scheme to a darker theme, but the basic layout has stayed the same.įor example, Sony includes a Live TV app on their favorites row and on the TV Channel – both of which are customizable by the user. The image below is from my 2017 Samsung UN40MU6300F. I really like Tizen TV’s clean, bright menu interface. Tizen TV is an open-source, Linux-based, lightweight operating system that powers Samsung mobile devices, smart televisions, and digital signage devices. However, the version on their televisions today looks remarkably similar to their original version. In fact, they’ve only been making “Smart TVs powered by Tizen” since 2015. Tizen wasn’t the first operating system Samsung used on their smart TVs. Then you can make a better decision when you’re looking to buy your next TV. I’ll briefly overview each operating system and its features, available apps, gaming, and updates.īy the end of this article, you’ll have a good idea of the differences between them. Since they’re two of the most popular smart TV platforms, it would be interesting to cover the differences between Samsung’s Tizen TV and Android TV. But unless you’re hooking up another streaming device to it, you will have to live with the operating system for several years. Picture quality is still the most important thing to look for when buying a new television. They all run their proprietary Tizen TV OS. Unfortunately, Samsung doesn’t make any televisions that run Android TVs. I’ve always loved Samsung’s picture quality more than my Sony Bravia Android TV. It might surprise you that most of the TVs in my house are Samsung TVs running Tizen OS – even though I run an Android TV website!
