Best Launcher?

What do you guys think the best launcher is, as for functionality + eye candy? I tried SPB Shell 3D and though some of the eye candy looked cool, when you really got down to it, there wasnt much of any customization and for sure lacked big time in the functionality department. I was thinking of trying out TSF Shell but then I also was looking at Go Launcher EX... so Im not sure which one to try.

Suggestions? Thoughts?
 
I would say the TSF shell looks the best, I love the scrolling effect on that launcher, and the crazy launchers pretty good too but abit complicated, currently testing out Mobo Launcher its offers heaps of themes for customization its pretty sweet. You can try out out these 3 launchers see which one suits you the best. these are my favorite ones.
 
So... did some more looking around, reading and watching some videos and it looks like Im going to try Go Laucher EX cause it seems to have TONS of things to customize it. But my concern before installing is.... ITS FREE? Is there some gimmick to this? How can something so cool be free in this world?
 
I use apex launcher or nova launcher I feel like apex has more customization but for me nova seems to be running smoother
 
Been using Go Launcher EX for about three days now and its awesome. Customization that comes with it is an amazing combination, my MT also has CM7 which is double awesome:).
 
With my razr now running ICS, I have moved on from GO Launcher EX to Apex. Loving it more and more as I figure out all it's features.
 
I gave in and purchased the full version of Apex today. Going to try and pop the apk onto my phone and see if I can run it even though it says not compatible.
 
I go a little bored with Go Launcher EX so swapped to Holo. There is a free version & a bought unlock key to enable additional features like notifications.

At the end of the day it's all about personal choice.
 
I use Go Launcher Ex. It pretty much has everything I could want. As a matter of fact, I pretty much use all the Go Development Products. They have the right combo of usability and customization for me. The only bad part is they do seem to slow down my device at times and I think they may eat up battery too. Oh well, nothing is perfect.
 
i like launcher pro. you can have very small icons, and you can eliminate the text description of those icons too. really helps if you are trying to keep all of your needed apps on one home screen. others may do this too, but i am not sure.
 
paid for and enjoy ssLauncher. a bit of a learning curve, but you can customize the hell out of your screen(s). its only the 2nd launcher I've paid for (other Launcher Pro)
