Android launchers/Home Screen Replacements have come a long way over the last couple of years. Right now, for Android, the leader seems to be Go Launcher EX (a very customizable, free Launcher - I mean completely free too - there is no dumbed-down version). Please forget about Go Launcher for just a second. I want to look back at a Launcher that was the King of the Android launchers for quite some time: Launcher Pro. The only reason I do not currently consider it "King" is because the author has not updated the app since May of 2011 (as of this writing, this holds true).
Launcher Pro is sort of frozen in time. I do not necessarily consider this to be a bad thing, however. There are mobile phones being produced today having specs akin to those found on phones produced 2 years ago. A phone that comes to mind would be the Samsung Replenish.
I thought that maybe Launcher Pro could be an alternative launcher that may play well on this low-spec, Samsung Replenish. I installed Launcher Pro Plus on the Samsung Replenish (the full paid-version of Launcher Pro which can be purchased through an unlocker) and the results were fantastic. With full screen widgets such as Calendar, Facebook, Contacts, SMS, and Twitter enabled, the file size of Launcher Pro only weighed in at 2.86 MB. Go Launcher EX Will set you back 4.4 MBs before it's even installed to your phone! So here I give you Launcher Pro running smooth as silk, Widgets and all, on the Samsung Replenish. Enjoy the video!
