Samsung claims it’s not completely closing the door on making new Android ar watches. But that door isn’t very wide open.

The company gave an official denial to a Fast Company report that Samsung would only make watches powered by its own Tizen operating system going forward. 

“ disagree with Fast Company’s interpretation. Samsung has not made any announcement concerning Android ar we have not changed our commitment to any of our platforms.”

The statement isn’t exactly a ringing endorsement of Android ar. If anything, it may just be Samsung trying to save a little face not admit what we already know from the current wearable lineup: Tizen is the future for its watches.

Samsung hasn’t released an Android ar watch since the Gear ve debuted at I/O two years ago. l of the company’s other wearables run Tizen, which the company is able to customize to its own liking promote with its Galaxy smartphone lineup.

The story behind the story: In the Fast Company report the unnamed Samsung executives cited several advantages for Tizen: it’s more power efficient can play more cohesively with the company’s smartphone lineup. ile Android ar 2.0 brings a number of improvements, it’s unlikely any of them will change Samsung’s mind.
