Smartisan OS
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Smartisan OS is an Android-based smartphone platform developed by ByteDance Chinese company Smartisan.[1] It is a custom ROM for smartphones and potentially tablet devices.
The first smartphone to utilize Smartisan OS is the Smartisan T1.
The CEO of Smartisan Co., Ltd., Luo Yonghao, said on Sina Weibo that "Smartisan" is a portmanteau of "Smart" and "Artisan".
Development
Smartisan OS was unveiled on March 27, 2013[2] at the China National Convention Center. It will compete with MIUI from Xiaomi and Flyme OS from Meizu in the Chinese cellphone market. The first public beta is available from June 15, 2013. It will initially be compatible with Samsung Galaxy S III plus a few other devices, followed by Smartisan's own hardware the following year, after which no third-party devices will be supported.[1][3]
