So I just now seen that Samsung is going to release their own UI. Technically theyve had their own with touch wiz... what do you think this will do for the Samsung community?

As a die hard Samsung fan I'm on the fence about this. It has its advantages and disadvantages.

As someone whose first move on a Samsung is usually to replace Touch Wiz with Nova, it depends on the new UI. If it's up to Samsung's (seeming) current standards, it won't make any difference to me - Nova will still get installed.

People do that on stock Android (pixel) I like Samsung launcher it's meant for how they wrote the software so sticking with it. Flows good.

When TouchWiz existed, I replaced it with Nova Launcher. With Samsung Experience, I don't feel the need. I still set up Nova and I might change over to it at times, but it's not needed. I'm liking what they are doing with One UI as well. Samsung seems to be listening to consumers and developers.

Never needed Nova since they upgraded TouchWiz to Samsung Experience. I'm liking the OneUI and it looks like Samsung will release it with Pie so I'm hoping it won't be a huge laggy mess out the gate.

Awesome. Does Samsung keep the swipe down gesture from anywhere on the home screen for Notifications? That's one gesture I seriously miss when using my Pixel 2XL.

While I haven't seen it up close to see if I would like this better or not, I'm willing to give the Beta a try. However, I am not seeing the sign up within the Samsung+ app. Has anyone got this to work yet? Do you need to register your device first within the app?

It's samsung of course it will lag over time.
I had my s8 for just under two years. It never slowed down or showed lag. Perhaps once upon a time Samsung's lag but they don't seem to now. The quality of the long-term was what made me chose the note over the mate 20.
