Samsung's Galaxy S5 is already making it to the rumor treadmill with the technological advances it's going to offer. The leaks so far include a new kind of fast charging battery, a 2K resolution display, an iris scanner for enhanced security and now comes the BIG thing - the TouchWiz UI; which Samsung installs on all its Android phones. TouchWiz saw a lot of criticism (mostly from Apple) for being so much like iOS.

The latest leak on the Internet reveals a 'tiled' interface and it's not a copy of Windows Metro. It's unique in its own way; but not much can be concluded from the screenshot yet. Have a look at the following photo and draw your own conclusions.

    It's something to look at. If Samsung can actually kick a great way of user-personalizable-yet-superb User Interface, then they've won the game big-time!

    If they do it - they'll have to be extremely careful. People usually don't like the change. I think they might try it with Tizen.

    This might be the Magazine UI which seems to have inspired from Google Now.
