My Galaxy Note III with Nova Launcher for a Nexus-like feel. This is a fun phone to play around with for sure. I haven't used an AMOLED screen in a while and forgot how punchy it makes the colors look. Wow!

I like to keep things fairly clean and functional.

My Note 4 with Nova. Most icons set up to open another app with an up-swipe thanks to Nova gestures.

Enjoying me some round icons. One of the best features of Android is the homescreen being seperate from the app folder.

I'm an iPhone user and I never thought id consider going back to android... But some of these pics are looking absolutely stunning. If the performance of lollipop matches it's looks then I am seriously considering android for my next phone.

Can anyone comment on the polish of lollipop? One of my biggest gripes with my experience of android is the sudden page switches and jarring transitions.

Sudden page switches? I haven't experienced that one unless I press back or the power key to turn the screen off.

Just made the switch from an iPhone 4 to a Nexus 5. Very happy (and happy with my decision not to just go for an iPhone 6 :))

The battery percentage is from Notification Toggle. Also wifi/bluetooth/sound-vibrate-mute from the pulldown shade.

The time and date are the digital clock Xperia widget.

I'm running Nova Launcher Prime.

I have no app drawers beyond what you see on my screen, also no other screens left or right. The left app folder contains all my social apps. The right one holds what I deem 'essential'. 16 in all in that one. I have roughly 40 apps in addition in my app drawer. I don't use them as frequently and when I do need them I find them quickly as everything is alphabetical.

I find this minimalistic approach works best for me.

Finally rooted my Note 4 so got straight in with some Wanam (Xposed) as well as Nova.

LCD density set to 540 in build.prop which offsets the dialer a bit but worth it for the extra detail elsewhere.
