ADW and Launcher Pro are good for icons and smoothness..... . While, QQ launcher Ex has many features but doesn't look nice on our device. Try and see if you like any..

I personally prefer ADW for it's smooth performance and nice UI.

I like so much Launcher GO ex for speed and customization.
You can have directory in menu launcher to organize your apps and I find this feature really usefull!!!

Go launcher ex...
Fully customizable and many themes

once again GO LAUNCHER EX

Zeam
Always Zeam for speed since the Mini has low RAM and a slow CPU.
Try it with an empty desktop (for widgets) and full transparency for the applications menu, so you can swipe down to get the full set of apps showing over your wallpaper.
Go Launcher is nice, especially with Go SMS and Go Contacts, as you can theme them all together.
ADW, slightly better technically but less user friendly (crashes) than Go.
Espier for freaking out the iFans?

I was using the qqlauncher is AMAZING, but in the lastest versions appear that isn't compatible and it was in older versions :S

go launcher eats to much ram! argghh!!

Agree with all of you..personally i like go and adw...but they consume more ram and make the phone sometimes laggy..

I think zeam for smoothness and go for customizing...

Launcher pro imo... uses less ram

zeam is smoothness, fast but little customs

Touchwiz for smoothness..go launcher for customization..launcher7 for show-off..lol..

Launcher pro plus (Y)

i think the ics is the smoothest
hehe
but zeam is best for smoothness

used go launcher till now, atm i'm using adw and i'm enjoying it

My question is: only Go Launcher has directory feature to organize apps?

Zeam launcher or adw is the best !!

LauncherPro. And it's worth the money of buying the plus version, Let's your esize widgets, and adds some stuff like contactswidget. It all works nice!

Launcher Pro \m/

Nova launcher for me, i find it more snappier than apex and widgets on nova align better in my experience.

Nova the best

I like go launcher and tsf shell. I regularly switch between them.

Cm9 with Trebuchet is the best. Clean, fast and easy on the eyes.

Apex for me is smoother than Nova but Holo HD is really good too!

Which launcher do you use on cm10?

I use CM 10 and I use atom launcher from market.
I found it more snappy.
please describe your experience with your favourite launcher for cm10 that could help others.

Nova, the best........its very fast, smooth animations .......never been to other launcher when im on ICS or cm10............

Tried most of them,i use nemus with themes on all rom's,it has 0 lag and ~14mb which i love

currently ADW launcher that came with Temasek's rom
on CM10 testing i used Apex Launcher (i also tried GoLauncher on CM10 - but it was too laggy for me)
btw why didn't you create a simple poll in this thread with most common launchers?

I use Apex, always smooth, sometimes dock disappears though.

Nova Launcher!

I can bet that currently the Next Launcher is the fastest one around.

Easy mate, it is still a beta. It will use more memory as it is OpenGL biased. But still it is fast as hell.

Apex here too, although scrolling on widgets is not as smooth as one would expect for CM10. On Scrollable New Widget i get those 'periodic stutters' i used to have on CM7 too. Interesting thing is that if performance governor is selected (@1GHz always) it runs buttery smooth. So maybe something to do with the interactive governor (preset on CM10) configuration? Btw, the same goes for all android menus, contacts etc; Only on performance governor things are totally smooth everywhere-always.

Nova prime, awesome, no lag just pure smooth awesomeness and i can organize my apps and games so i can actually find stuff without searching and concentrating really hard like all the other crap launchers.

nova prime its the best...

Primo launcher is the best!

It would be nice if you can write how much memory also use your fav. launcher
Mine like i said does ~15mb, how is that nova prime?

Holo launcher HD also worth to mention here.

Hey there,
I have the next launcher and i'm very pleased with this launcher. He's very smooth and stable with lots of features for adjusting app and so on.. Try this one and i think you will agree with me that this is the one....

o boy..try both... and decide

They are similar but I found Nova better designed.
Sent from LG 2X using Tapatalk 3 Beta

not all of us have the same settings on our phones so it's best to download and try both - you'll see which launcher suits you best...

I think Apex =)

I found Nova to be both smooth and good looking with many settings but then again... It´s very personal.

Apex
Enviado desde mi O2X

It all comes down to preference

Im using the NOVA launcher and Im very happy with it... of course, the pro version

Nova.....really smoother than apex and the main thing low memory usage....since our O2x ram is bottlenecking i would prefere nova over other launchers....:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

I recommend also nova, smoother than apex based on my own observation..

i found nova launcher also smoother on cm10

nova launcher is doing an excellent job right now on JB
I keep switching between nova and launcher7 depending upon the look I want

I confirm : Nova is very smooth
More than trebuchet and Apex !

i think apex is better
but you have to try it on yourself

Nova is much smoother on our phone and allows customizing the app drawer decorations color (the blue underline under tab names) without installing a theme.
It is a nice touch when you use transparency and want to match your wallpaper color.

NEXT Launcher,from the GO team Devs..I never saw better launcher after i installed NEXT..
It's on an early stage though,but there are many things to come,cause GO team will continue build new things for their apks..

Nova and Apex are both very nice launcher, if i have the choise i want use Nova launcher because you have more settings

Apex Launcher for me. I dont need notifications, so free version.

Holo HD Launcher with notifier True jelly bean interface, smoother n faster, haven't tried others though
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda app-developers app

I've tried practically every launcher, in the end the smoothest with good features are Holo launcher and smart launcher (both unique), the best looking are next launcher (ram heavy..) and go launcher.
I really liked nova but it is more expensive and pro feature notify is broken and still not fixed :S
Most launchers have nova features now...

You should give ssLauncher a go. Takes a fair bit of time to configure, but in the end, you'll get a unique interface.

Last time i used it im almost certain i had same versions if nova and tesla unread, benzrom v3 xxama2. Install would be fine until reboot then constand tesla unread fc. Looked it up and it was an ongoing bug. What date is tesla unread 2.2 release?
Anyway, holo has practically all features of nova with better menus (especially app drawer tab or folder management), and uses less ram.
Worth a try, nova uses to be my favourite but now holo won my favour.
I am drunk please excuse my lazy grammar.

Dunno about the date of the build, but it's 2.2 version from Play Store downloaded like a week ago, thought I had it as soon as I got the update on my SGSII. I installed it on my wife's phone (SIII Mini), set up and all works as it should (as on my SGSII), no FC, no errors at all. It shows unread notifications on home screen and in menu as it is supposed to.
Maybe it's cause of a really clean installs as this SIII Mini is a brand new phone, few flashes and mods only (essentials).
Cheers,
Fevv.

auto rotation? huh... ummm, no go! and then pay up for every single thing around it... no go thank you, thou it's impressive and quite different on first few run(s). Saw it on S III and saw the flaws and stuff. It has great potential and I admit it's a very different approach to do the interface.
