Samsung is almost always Apple at this point. It could use Android because the base of its products, however builds its hardware around its own software and services. As such, the corporate is doing what any other platform holder does – host a developer conference.

Samsung announced today that registration is now open for the primary annual Samsung Developers Conference. The conference is being held in San Francisco and may last from October 27 to the 29.

So, what are you able to expect from the primary ever Samsung Developers Conference? The company’s big selection of Galaxy mobile devices will obviously be represented, but Samsung doesn’t just make the world’s most desirable Android device. It also builds smart TVs and other software that it wants developers to create apps for.

Samsung won’t be exclusively sticking to Android devices on the event either as a number of the planned events revolve round the company’s Tizen mobile operating system. Samsung could be using it to focus on low-end devices for emerging markets, and developers might want to know all about it in the event that they desire to take advantage of the capability digital gold rush.

It must be noted that probably the most interesting aspect of Samsung’s Developer Conference is that it exists. Google already has the Android developer conference locked up with Google I/O. Sure, there are other conferences, but you visit Google I/O to profit straight from the folks building the platform. For Samsung, its developer conference feels like another try and distance itself from Google, especially with the point of interest on Tizen.

With Samsung quickly matching Apple with regards to brand recognition, it wouldn’t be surprising to look Samsung ditch Android within the near future. It’s unlike the corporate needs Android to achieve success provided that it may provide an analogous user experience with its own software. This developer conference could be the first step in convincing developers (i.e. early adopters) to embrace an Android-less Samsung.
