Is EMUI bad?

[Chris Parsons]

I've never had a device running it so I'm a bit lost on how 'terrible' it is lol. How bad is it, really?

I find it kinda meh. I have an Honor 5X, and I don't like the lack of an App Drawer, because that means I have to create a folder called "Useless Junk." App icons also seem spaced too far apart, both on the homescreen and within folders. Not much customization (apart from theming), but I guess I'm just spoiled by Nova Launcher (no relation, of course ).

You can't just install the Nova launcher? Bummer,. if that's true.

I know other people have, but the one time I tried, I got some Huawei error popup (not an Android system popup) saying that Nova caused some serious instability, and it was going back to EMUI.
