[Q] S6 recommendation from a TouchWiz hater? topic
Hi guys,
I started my Android journey with the S3, then went for HTC M7 as I realised I really didn't like TouchWiz and was running CM on my S3 for most of its lifespan.
I then saw the S5 and thought man I really need a good camera after the M7 disappointment, but I HATED that phone!
People didn't seem to agree but I'm an ultra-nerd and the overall lag in the phone (due to TouchWiz) got under my skin so bad, like I was installing custom apps to replace things like the ridiculously slow Gallery, even found my Camera took too long to open sometimes. Generally through owning the phone I remember noticing so many little stutters of lag and sometimes outright freezing for a second or so. I even thought there was an issue until I compared with three of my friends phones and found them all the same.
On top of that, I really hate the look of TouchWiz (haven't seen Lollipop yet), and have always been an AOSP purist - but didn't want a ROM with any issues and just wanted a rooted factory phone.
Then I bought the Oneplus One and am in LOVE with this device, I really like the bigger screen, I love the speed and OxygenOS Lollipop is wonderful, good battery and again AOSP Lollipop just looks amazing to me.
Unfortunately, the only thing that I can't stand is the camera - it's good, but not great.
The S6 is now released and akin to what happened last year I've got an itch to spring for it given the quality camera, and hearing that all TouchWiz lag has now disappeared from the phone.
I know it's not been out long and don't know if anyone has even really had a chance to play but I was wondering if anyone who hates TouchWiz has decided to use the phone and if so why, and if they have used it whether they are happy with the purchase or not!
Also I'm half tempted to wait for the Note 5 because I enjoy the bigger screen size - but I've got a few holidays coming up and really want a decent camera to take with me!
Cheers
