you are confusing os with launchers. One OS and a number of different launchers. I've been in android since 1.0 and I remember the likes of Nova etc on their first release. Go Launcher was nice in it's day too. There was that SPB 3D launcher too which was epic but would murder your battery.
The problems I usually hit are with the core o/s not being polished enough and there being fundamental bits that just don't work in the no nonsense way I need them to.
I find that iPhone does **most** of these things smoothly but gets boring when you get a new phone and pretty much everything is the same.
Anyway, I'm currently really enjoying my S8+ and it's not annoying me nearly as much as I expected it to, so things are looking promising.
