The latest from @evleaks shows a possible TouchWiz (http://www.engadget.com/tag/touchwiz/) home screen that would be a sharp U-turn from the current one, if real. It displays information and notifications like Google Now in a tiled format à la Microsoft's Modern/Metro UI -- not unlike the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 (http://www.engadget.com/2014/01/06/samsung-galaxy-note-pro/)'s Magazine UX. Naturally, there's no info about how the software would gather up such data, but in any event, the screenshot above could easily be a Samsung test or a fake -- we'll find out in a few short months (http://www.engadget.com/2014/01/09/samsung-promises-a-back-to-basics-rethink-for-the-galaxy-s5/).
