At first look – not much has changed. If you've used a high-end 2015 Sammy smartphone, you will feel right at home. The UI seems to have naturally progressed to a sleeker, flatter look, with more transparency and blur effects added when certain edit screens are open. There are a few new sorting options, including a pretty cool app search menu. And the Galaxy S6 / S6 edge will get the full-on Pro mode for the camera that the Note 5 has! To clarify – yes, the Galaxy S6 does have its own Pro mode, but it is currently less elaborate than the one in the Note 5, as it is lacking a shutter speed control, and having a limited 5-step white balance slider.
And hey, if you've missed it – from the aforementioned Note 4 video, it seems that the 2014 phablet will get the same new and rehashed interface. Would that make it as snappy as the Note 5? Let's hope so!

If you're going to switch from a Samsung device to a completely different platform because you can't get Marshmallow right away, then I doubt you own a Samsung smartphone.

I'm not in a rush for them to release a software revision to the public just for the sake of a number change. If spending a few extra months on it means they optimize performance and efficiency more thoroughly, then I'll be happy with a current version that is stable in the meantime.

Is it weird that I have started to actually like Touchwiz UI?

Really not liking the whole transparent border around the non-Samsung apps. Way too iOS like.
That's one thing I love about Android is how icons can have their own individual shapes and looks. Thank god for the ability to change launchers because this icon crap makes me like Touchwiz even less.
