I have a confession to make. One of the first things I did when I got my Captivate was tried to De-TouchWiz it. I immediately got a new launcher and used lockbot to change the lockscreen.
Well, what I'm finding out is that there are some things about TouchWiz that I really like. For example I love being able to change wifi settings etc. on the drop down notification drawer. I also love being able to change the brightness by swiping the notification bar.
The one thing that I decided to come back to as a UI element is the Lock Screen. I didn't even give it a shot when I first bought the phone and today I've been using it and I love it. The puzzle message system is just a great tweak and I love how you can just move the puzzle piece into the puzzle hole to go straight to that application instead of swiping the whole screen to unlock and go to the home page. I also really like that you can kind of swipe any which way to unlock the screen, as well as the fact that it's transparent to your wallpaper/live wallpaper.
All around, bravo to Samsung on the lock screen. I hope others are enjoying it as much as I am.
