Samsung released its Z1 earlier in the year, making it their first Tizen smartphone. It has been a hit in an emerging market like India but has not fared so well in other regions. Based on that success, they have been working on a successor to the Samsung Z1, the Samsung Z2.  It has  only been a few months since the first generation has been made available to the public but supposed photos have already leaked online.

 

The Samsung Z2 Tizen is a budget smartphone aimed for hugr markets like India, China and Russia. With so many affordable phones going around offering mostly the same things, Samsung felt it had to come out with its own version to compete with the other leading brands. Previously leaked specs although not confirmed, say that the Z2 will have a display resolution of 540x960. In addition, it will also have 32-bit quad-core processor and 1 GB of RAM.The Z2 will also be powered by a 2,000 mAh battery.

This marks the fifth consecutive year that the premium lineups, Neo QLED 8K and Neo QLED, have received certifications, reinforcing the company’s continued efforts in carbon reduction.
       
      “Samsung Electronics is committed to driving technological innovation for a sustainable future,” said Taeyong Son, Executive Vice President of Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics. “As the world’s leading TV manufacturer, we will continue to be at the forefront of establishing a more energy-efficient ecosystem that benefits consumers.”
       
      Following last year’s certification of 60 models across the Neo QLED, OLED and Lifestyle TV categories, Samsung has further increased its number of certified products in 2025 to include QLED TVs.

Since then, Samsung has continually expanded its portfolio of environmentally certified products, including QLED, Crystal UHD, Lifestyle TVs, OLED TVs and a wide range of monitors and digital signage products.
       
      For more information on Samsung’s 2025 TV lineup, please visit www.samsung.com.
       
       
      1 38 Certified models include Neo QLED 8K(QN990F, QN950F), Neo QLED 4K(QN90F, QN85F), OLED(S95F 55”/65”, S90F, S85F 77”/83”), The Frame Pro(LS03FW), LCD Signage(QMC 43”, 50”, 55”, 75”), and Soundbar(Q930F, Q800F, QS700F) products.
      1 42 Certified models include Neo QLED 8K(QN900F), Neo QLED 4K(QN80F, QN70F), OLED(S95F 77”/83”, S85F 55”/65”), The Frame(LS03F), QLED(Q8F, Q7F), Viewfinity S80UD, S80D, QMC 65’’/85’’, Soundbar(Q990F), EMDX 32″.

      This commitment to innovation has earned Samsung widespread recognition from industry experts and global tech media. Newsweek recognized the HW-Q990D with its prestigious Editors Choice award, praising it as “the best Dolby Atmos soundbar you can buy in 2024.” Additionally, the HW-S800D, Samsung’s sleek lifestyle soundbar, was named Editor’s Choice by Techlicious, which described it as “the perfect choice for anyone looking to upgrade their TV’s sound without sacrificing style or space.”
       
      Building on this momentum, Samsung continues to push the boundaries of home audio technology. The company’s 2025 soundbar lineup introduces AI-enhanced surround sound, improved connectivity and refined audio processing, reaffirming its dedication to delivering superior audio experiences to consumers worldwide.
       
      “We’re proud to be recognized as the global leader in soundbars for 11 consecutive years and believe this honor is a testament to our commitment to delivering premium audio experiences,” said Hun Lee, Executive Vice President of Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics. “We will continue to push innovation forward, enhancing both sound quality and usability to create an even more seamless and immersive home entertainment experience.”
