I really liked Go Launcher Ex, but it would constantly pull up programs in the background that I did not use. For example, I have not once in the year I have had this phone used Mobile Hotspot, yet it was constantly running with Go Launcher. My battery would drain down to 0% in 5 hours of light use. I seem to be in the minority that has this problem, however, and if you do not experience this problem, Go Launcher is fine.
I've been running ADW for about a week now, and I find it just as good as Go Launcher. Neither is hard to use, and they offer pretty much the same customization options, at least for the things I was interested in customizing. I prefer ADW because I have not had the battery issues I had with Go. In fact, I seem to be getting better battery life than I do running the default launchers for Tweaked 2.0, Eclipse 2.0, or Stock.
I've tried Launcher Pro, but I found it less intuitive than Go and ADW. I couldn't navigate through the customization options as easily as with the other two. I also hear that it hasn't been updated in 8 months. I can't verify this, and as I stated before, it all comes down to preference. I haven't used Launcher Pro enough to really cast judgment.
So, short version, I prefer ADW Launcher to Go Launcher or Launcher Pro, but all three are better than the stock launcher. It all comes down to individual preference.
