I have it on mine. I was going to wait a while and try to play with the TouchWiz a bit, but I've had it on my note 2 almost from the first round of Invites from aviate. I haven't had any problems with it. It runs nice, battery life isn't an issue. One part I don't like, is on one screen there is a number of news items at the bottom that continuously update, but you can't access them unless you install Yahoo News Digest.
there are 3 themes, Light, Dark and Transparent. in settings you can change the icon packs if you've added them. Can set home and work locations. these help with apps it might recommend while on the go
1st page is "spaces"
Your settings are here, as well as some "links" that'll take you to apps corresponding to teh name. So "Listening" will show you your Music Apps. "Near By" shows you whats close by.
2nd page
This shows you the selection based on what you've chose on the Spaces page. "today" on teh spaces page is the defult. Date, weather, events for the day, the S health and pedo show here. Basically this is where you would set your widgets if you wanted them. I don't care for widgets myself, so I tend to just leave it as is. But you can do a bit with it. Try it, play with it.
3rd Page
This is your "home screen" App tray at the bottom for quick picks. Most people only have one picture, but you can put in two. I also have my Google search bar there over the picture.
4th Page Collections
The "collections" section is nice. You can set them up however you want. You can use the pre set ones or make your own. Pre set seems to sort them appropriately enough, but you can move them around inside the collection as you want, can move the collections around too.
5th Page
last page is all your apps, in alphabetical order.,

FWIW, I think Yahoo News Digest is a must-have anyway.

News Digest? Just a nice way to get up to speed on daily events.
