For me yes. It's cleaner and more elegant, and having used it on my GPE S4 for ages, I like it. Swipe to google now, OK Google works, memory footprint is small and icon size is about right for a tablet this size.
Now if you want to change grid sizing, and icon themes then clearly its not as good, but if you just want a streamlined launcher with as little idiosyncrasy as possible, then it does the job for me.
It's just a preference thing. Had it not worked on the Note 12.2 I would have used Nova, but with Nova I just couldn't get the grid spacing correct for app drawer and desktop.
might give it a try...
as you said i think i would use it on tablet but not the phone as i like my grid sizing and having so many apps on each page.
Help guys...
Do you guys have a music widget on touchwiz launcher other than the magazine one ? I could swear there was one and now for some reason I don't gave one.

No I was just looking for the music widget that I thought I saw on Touchwiz launcher, but must have been mistaken
Do you guys have screen protectors on the device ? It's a very big fingerprint magnet otherwise I've found, I'm looking for a toughened glass protector with oleophobic coating.

How you finding it so far?
Grand .. Other than Touchwiz issue even with a new launcher ( I still find the device heavy on memory despite having 3gb) but otherwise it's like a big Note 3
Stock apps are good, hancom office seems very good.
Multi window is nice but beyond two windows it's a little laggy.
Screen size is great for drawing and painting. Art flow and Sketch Book Pro are excellent on it. I have no regrets as far as they go for sketching and such
Loving the keyboard on the Note 12.2 in landscape. Really quite pleasurable to use. I went back to Touchwiz launcher too.
Yes ....... but I really need to stop my spending
haha, I have to say, their I am thinking about the Pro 2, but you say about the hi DPI issues, but the Pro 3 in the UK is only around £50 more! For newer tech and 2" bigger screen. So I like the new Pro 3
the 128GB i5 seems good for £849 but it doesn't state if that's with 8GB ram.
If the rumors are true apple is working on it. But I do not think any rumor saying it is coming out this year is true. If it is really being worked on it will be out in a few years.
It's pretty big, in landscape I find the keyboard too wide. Not sure what else to use.
So you don't like Samsung's keyboard on it ? I don't mind it at all, though occasionally predictive text gets in the way, especially with Irish names and places. But then all keyboards have this issue.
I have bought a motorola Android Keyboard which should arrive soon hopefully, so when its on my desk I can just use the bluetooth keyboard.
No I use SwiftKey but tempted to use Samsung keyboard instead. SwiftKey isn't as good as on my phone I don't think.
