Samsung, the world's second-largest phone maker has said today that it will prioritize the Android and Bada mobile operating systems, making them key software platforms for their smartphones.
Says YH Lee, head of marketing at Samsung Mobile: "We are Prioritizing our Android platform. Android is very open and flexible, and there is a consumer demand for it."
Android has quickly become the third biggest mobile OS in the world, behind Symbian and RIM, surpassing Apple and Microsoft, which had head starts.
Samsung launched the Bada OS last year and have introduced two phones running the software, the Wave and the Wave 723.
Lee says the company will launch a full lineup of Bada phones in the upcoming quarters.
Despite prioritizing the other smartphone OS', Samsung does say they are releasing a Windows 7 device later in the year.
