TouchWiz makes it look like Gingerbread. Hmmmm, maybe I'll have to get stock Android when I get ICS.

Yea, they can definitely just cool down with the TouchWiz, Sense and most definitely with the MotoBlur on ICS. Just my opinion.

Motoblur is a pretty terrible rom considering it is bloat filled and doesn't add anything over stock. At least with touchwiz you get the nice pulldown toggle. Touchwiz should look mostly like stock android but with the pulldown toggle and the touchwiz widgets. I know this won't happen since they think people actually want touchwiz's launcher, same goes with sense. They really think people will be unable to use their phone if it looks different.

Having the music toggles on the lock screen? That's one thing that's nice.

Is that so? Please explain, I find motoblur on the DX to be just fine, does what I need it to. Has very useful widgets built in that work much better than the crap you get off the market so I really would like to know what you are talking about. Complain complain, yet have nothing to really say why you are complaining.

have you even used any of the new Droids or the Atrix 2? "Motoblur" is really nice.

Yeah, you obviously haven't recently used a Motorola phone, which Motoblur no longer exists on any them made this year. The new Motorola UI is much better than Motoblur and imo touchwiz.

I have the Droid Razr and also had the Bionic. Moto's new UI is great to me. Both phones I had were lightning fast and very smooth. I've only had minimal experience with older Moto phones but the newer ones with Moto's new UI are fantastic (IMHO)

I think they need to get rid of that launcher, the new TW 5 should be based on the new ICS launcher that's far more useful and with new TW widgets, but probably the core apps modification aren't cooked yet so they decided to use the 4.0 apps instead since they should work as well
Hope the TW 5 is more based on TW UX and not TW 4.0

TouchWiz 5.0 will be re-designed for Android 4.0 unlike TW4.0

I personally love the icons and colors on TouchWiz 4.0 because the Super AMOLED Plus screen really makes them pop. The only thing about TouchWiz that I can't stand is the 4 icons on the bottom. Ever since I got my first Android phone, I've used custom launchers that put 5 icons on the bottom, with the app drawer icon in the middle, and that is probably going to be my favorite change with Ice Cream Sandwich.

Really mad... I cant believe that Huawei as a company already has a phone that will run on ICS coming out next week on US prepaid carrier. but lets wait until it comes to our phones to be the hottest smartphone of 2012 bet money it will be ;)
