We posted earlier about Nova Launcher and how it dropped from beta to a full version on the Android Market. There is a free version and a paid version. Most of you probably got pretty excited, but hit the brakes of that excitement when you saw the four dollar price tag. Yes, it is pretty hefty for a launcher, and you might be asking, “what is so special about the paid version?” Well let me enlighten you my friends. Some crazy new animations and gestures are only going to make your Ice Cream Sandwich experience a whole lot better.
I truly believe Nova Launcher is the best ICS launcher out there. It beats out Trebuchet and Apex Launcher by a landslide, and if you do not think you should purchase the paid version, check out my video below. Hopefully it will sway you that direction.

Go launcher does effects. What makes this one special?
Mainly because this is strictly an ICS launcher. When it comes to many out there that have beta ICS roms, this launcher helps make them run smoother than stock ICS launchers
Go launcher sux on ICS thats why….have they even updated it? Nova Launcher is like the ASOP but gives you all the heavenly tweaks that you want in a launcher. The Go launcher, its cool but its kinda like comparing a nice dinner out at suave restaurant or Outback Bobs all you can eat buffet. If your hungry and want it all (all the shit you can handle) then go with the Go Launcher, if you want tasteful sophistication bundled up to have people notice “Oh your running Ice Cream Sandwich, I am too…oh wait a minute? Whats that? do that again? Mine doesn’t do that?” with go launcher they are a bit more squinting at the your phone thinking “hmmm oh your running an over the top crazy themed to the max gingerbread ROM! Nice! it almost looks like the real deal” and then you shock them by telling them that you ARE actually running Ice Cream Sandwich hiding in amongst the all you can eat buffet that’s spewing out in your face. Nothing against Go Launcher, heck if you were actually running Gingerbread then Go Launcher is probably going to get you as close to the look of Android 4.x as your going to get on your Gingerbread ROM.
