    Although it hasn't launched a Tizen-powered smartphone in Indonesia, Samsung has today opened a new version of the Tizen Store that has been specifically created for the country. This leads us to believe that the Samsung Z2 will hit the shelves in the region a lot sooner than previously expected.

    Samsung has also expanded its in-app payment platform to accomodate users in Indonesia who now purchase expansion packs in their local currency. A basic, yet inaccurate, translation of the Maps application is also rolling out to some owners in the country, but it looks like it needs a little more work.

    Good news for folks in Indonesia who've been hoping for an affordable Tizen smartphone for a while now. It looks like its finally en route to your location.
