Here’s a video showing off an Intel-based Tizen OS

Here’s the first official peek at Intel’s Tizen overlay dubbed Obsidian. It’s probably a very early build as you can see that the animations aren’t all that polished but we get too see what sort of UI dynamics Intel is planning for its own Tizen version.

The UI starts off with an All Apps drawer which is reminiscent of Android and features flat icons navigated by means of side-swipes. More after the break.

A swipe to the right reveals the contacts pane. When a certain app has a notification to display the icon is rotated 45 degrees and shows a tiny red-colored highlight at the bottom corner.

Upon a press on specific apps you’ll get a popup with additional options. The lockscreen seems unchanged from what we’ve seen before and has a slide-to-unlock functionality with not much else.

It’s still Obsidian’s early days and Samsung seems to have gained a little more ground by merging its TouchWiz styling with Tizen.
