SEOUL (Reuters) - Samsung Electronics said on Friday smartphones based on its own operating system bada would amount to one-third of its total smartphone offerings this year.

"Customer response for bada-based smartphones is very strong," a Samsung executive told analysts.

Earlier on Friday the world's No.2 mobile phone maker said more than 50 percent of its smartphones would be based on the popular Android operating system developed by Google.
