What is Bada


Samsung bada is a smartphone platform released in 2010. The word “bada” means “ocean” in Korean. Samsung Wave is the first bada-powered phone. For developers, bada will bring a new blue ocean of mobile applications. For customers, they will have a wider choice of smartphones with cost-effective yet powerful bada-powered phones.

Vision of bada

The vision of bada is “Smartphone for Everyone”. bada’s main goal is not to compete with other existing smartphone platforms. Instead, bada will turn Samsung’s conventional customers into smartphone users by providing cost-effective smartphones. This means that bada will open and extend a new smartphone market, which does not exist in the current mobile market.

History of bada

Samsung bada has long history. Almost 10 years of history. It has been Samsung’s proprietary platform for a long time. During its long history, it has been deployed in many successful handsets. For example, Samsung “Star” is an example of recent successful phones, of which sales surpassed 10 million units, just six months after its release.

To make the proprietary platform smarter, we added exciting features such as multipoint-touch, 3D graphics, an enhanced UI, and of course, application downloads and installation, and so bada was born. Samsung bada is proven to be reliable with its history and also enhanced with its new features.
Business with bada

Samsung bada will help mobile developers to expand their application business. Our aim is to continue to release successful models. Over 220,000,000 customers bought Samsung handsets in 2009. Over 40,000,000 customers bought Samsung touch phones last year. Samsung bada will rapidly be adopted by such customers this year.

In addition, the global distribution and coverage of Samsung mobile phones and Samsung Apps, the application store, will boost developers´ businesses. Samsung Apps will expand its service to 75 countries for bada in 2010.

No wonder. A new blue ocean is coming. We hope you are among the early birds in this new market.

Features of bada

Even though bada supports a wide range of devices, bada is powerful enough to turn your imagination into powerful applications. With high end devices such as Wave, bada fully utilizes the power of hardware for the ultimate application experience. Even with mid-range or cost-effective models, it also provides powerful features for better application experiences.

Features such as plenty of UI controls, Flash support, and sensor support help applications to be more interactive. Service-centric features such as in-app-purchasing, SNS integration, and push notification help applications to offer customers a richer, more interactive experience.

For more information, please refer to the Technical Resources page in bada Developers web site.

Ecosystem Support

To help customers and developers, bada provides well-made ecosystem support. Samsung bada provides an application store, developer support systems with useful information, and a developer-friendly certification process.


Samsung bada is a promising platform for developers and customers. We hope you find a new blue ocean for your business with bada. Why not dive into bada today?

Cintiq 21UX - Digital Drawing Board



For many professionals, working directly on screen is the most natural way to create digital art. This is especially true for those originally from traditional art backgrounds who are used to drawing and painting on canvas.

The Cintiq 21UX's ambidextrous design makes the ExpressKeys available to your non-dominant hand so you can have your most frequently used shortcuts and other convenient functions at your fingertips. ExpressKey settings include:

  • Clicks: Click, Right Click, Middle Click, Double Click, Click Lock, 4th Click, 5th Click
  • Keystroke...: Enables your to set keyboard shortcuts.
  • Modifier...: Enables you to simulate SHIFT, ALT, CTRL for Windows, and SHIFT, OPTION, COMMAND, CONTROL on a Mac.
  • Radial Menu: Displays a Radial Menu on your screen. Each level of the hierarchical menu consists of eight menu slices which may contain various features and options to choose from or customize. Up to three levels for a total of 512 possible settings.
  • Back: enables you to move back one page in browsers and other applications.
  • Forward: enables you to move forward in browsers and other applications.
  • Pan/Scroll: Enables you to position a document or image in any direction within the active pane by pressing a tablet or pen button set for PAN/SCROLL and then dragging with the pen tip across the tablet’s active area.

  • Precision Mode...: Changes the mapping around the current pen tip position such that you must move the pen twice as far for the screen cursor to cover the same distance on the display screen. To activate, press and hold the tool button to which this function is assigned. Releasing the button returns to normal mapping.
  • Show Settings: Displays a diagram of the tablet ExpressKeys and Touch Ring, showing the current function settings for each control.
  • Disable: Disables the ExpressKey.
  • Application Defined: Reports only the button number to the application. This is for applications, such as CAD programs, that have built-in support for the Intuos4 Mouse or Lens Cursor. This function may also be used by some highly integrated applications for direct control of the pen tablet ExpressKeys and Touch Ring.
  • Default: Returns the ExpressKey to its default setting.
  • Mode Toggle...: Toggles between pen mode and mouse mode.
  • Display Toggle: (For multiple monitor systems.) Enables you to toggle the current tablet mapping and screen cursor between different displays when you press an ExpressKey that has been assigned this function.

Resistive touchscreen

In the cell phone industry there are two major categories of touchscreen displays: capacitive touchscreens and resistive touchscreens. Resistive touchscreen displays are composed of multiple layers that are separated by thin spaces. Pressure applied to the surface of the display by a finger or stylus causes the layers to touch, which completes electrical circuits and tells the device where the user is touching. As such, resistive type touchscreens require much more pressure to activate than capacitive touchscreens. Examples of devices with resistive touchscreens are the HTC Touch Diamond and the Samsung SGH-i900 Omnia.

Capacitive Touch Screen

In the cell phone industry there are two major categories of touchscreen displays: capacitive touchscreens and resistive touchscreens. Capacitive touchscreen displays rely on the electrical properties of the human body to detect when and where on a display the user touching. Because of this, capacitive displays can be controlled with very light touches of a finger and generally cannot be used with a mechanical stylus or a gloved hand. Examples of devices with capacitive touchscreens are the Apple iPhone and the T-Mobile G1.
