Galaxy S6: Samsung wants to create an interface “as simple as … – Frandroid

This is now (almost) a secret, Samsung will unveil its Galaxy S6 at the Mobile Word Congress in Barcelona in March. What is less known is that the Korean automaker wants to greatly simplify TouchWiz, so as to make it lighter.

 Galaxy S5

TouchWiz, the interface found on all Android smartphones and tablets from Samsung, is often decried by Android users. Too heavy, too colorful, packed with applications in duplicate with those of Google, it is far from unanimous among both consumers and the press. Samsung seems he taken note of the criticisms made against him and has make adjustments with the Galaxy S6.

This is certainly the assertions of the website web journal Business Korea , which anonymous sources, indicates that significant changes will be introduced in the next version of TouchWiz. The slogan would be simplifying . Not only Samsung plans to ensure that it consumes less memory, but it should increasingly focus on its core functions and eliminate unnecessary features or its repeating those already built into Android by Google. One of the sources of the Business Korea has even stated: “ We plan to remove all unnecessary features and make the user interface of equal simplicity that seen on the Nexus 6 “. The Nexus 6, remember, uses a stock version of Android, and therefore has no overlay or additional software.

Is it wishful thinking on the part of Samsung? TouchWiz Will also lightweight and convenient to use the interface of Nexus 6? It would in any case surprising to see Samsung go deep on its own interface as it is presented from the Galaxy S3 as a differentiating element of other Android smartphones. Especially since the first images of TouchWiz under Lollipop not suggested a much lighter interface. Answer in every case in March with the announcement of the Galaxy S6 during the MWC 2015. As usual, we will be there to cover the event.
