So im looking at the WIDE variety of launchers on the play store..Nova seems to be decent & if you spend a whole 4 bucks you can get some better features from what I read... then I stumbled upon Next Launcher 3D for 15.99.. watched the video on it and it looks damn cool.. anyone on here have it? Reviews besides the ones from the play store? How's it run on the GS4? Looks like they used a GS4 in the video & it was flawless. Thanks!

When I had my S3 I used Nova Launcher (prime). It was awesome. I am digging my default (HTC sense) UI at the moment though.

I'd suggest giving the free version of Nova Launcher a try.

Do you often find yourself irresistibly drawn to sparkling objects?
Just kidding. I think it is ridiculously priced and still think it's that way to cash in on the curiosity factor.
I used GoLauncher for a long time, but it just became so heavily bloated I ditched it and never looked back.
The built in app icon rotation and animation is cool but this launchers just not for me.
Nova is more than decent, even in its free version. Apex is a great one, but I would upgrade to the pro I just found it more enjoyable that way.
Buzz launcher is my current favorite right now, it's free, seems pretty lightweight, nice layout, gestures, backup and restore, and a community of themers that share there Homescreen designs.
Lightning Launcher is another really nice free, highly customizable one.
 
Yea to much for a launcher when i prefer adw.ex launcher. You can buy Next 3d and try it for like 15 minutes and return it with no cost to you.
 
Just today paid for Nova Launcher Prime. I wasn't going to drop TouchWiz but after messing with Nova and finding out that about the only feature I lost was the weather widget, I decided to go for it. I like the Touchwiz weather widget, but there are others out there that can replace it.
 
I haven't used it, but my reaction was that it looks really cool, but is probably less functional than more traditional launchers. There's too much screen space that is just wasted. That might be fine on a 20"+ PC screen, but I don't think we can afford to waste any space on small device screens.
 
I have used nova launcher and I purchased next and really enjoy it. Gives a different take to android you can do so much with the next browser.

Nova Launcher Prime doesn't waste space! It can make sure you use every available pixel, if that's what you want. It is extremely flexible, yet extremely accessible.
 
I suggest Nova, since it actually made my entire GS4 faster, and landscape homescreen.

I use Nova Prime.

Been using it for about 5 weeks now and haven't had any problems with it.

Personally, I didn't like it. Using Nova Prime right now.

Another vote for Nova here. I have the paid version, but the free version ain't bad and definitely worth trying out. There's no way I'd pay $15 for a launcher that doesn't even let me try it out first. (and I mean a *real* trial, I realize I have a short window to get a refund)

It would be kinda tough to try out HTC Sense on the *Samsung* Galaxy S4!

Nova is too much an improvement over Touchwiz to not use it, in my opinion...Sense may be a different story.
