Its no secret that when you switch from different Android phones that you notice that the user interface is a bit different.

Samsung Galaxy S5
Samsung Galaxy S5 has one of the brightest and more cartoon like user interface. It is considered one of the more easier user interfaces to use. The Samsung Galaxy S5 runs TouchWiz which gives you a much brighter and richer design. Even though TouchWiz is a big pro to the user interface, all you can pretty much customize is the font and wallpaper. Other then that, it is not customizable. Besides the color and design factor Samsung has a tendency of packing a relatively large amount of features which gives it the "clutter" feeling. Some people love all the feature the phone gives, others don't.
LG G3
The LG G3 has a more subtle and sophisticated design. The biggest advantage to this phone and user interface is that you can customize a lot more compared to its competitors such as the Samsung Galaxy S5. You can customize the control screen, the home screen, the animation or even when you want the phone to lock or unlock. This phone has a great, smooth multi-tasking feature which makes it really user friendly.
Nexus 5
The user interface that the Nexus has know as Stock Android is unchanged from what Google has made the Android to be. The phone runs KitKat and even though the user interface is unchanged they can vary from different phones for example the Nexus 5 and and Nexus 7. Since Google tweeked its design they will be different between the two. The advanatage to having this phone is that it gives you all the features that Google intended the OS to be, it has the original design made for the Android, as well as the fact that is is not cluttered with features that manufactuers try to put to have their own touch.
HTC One M8
HTC named their user interface HTC Sense, which gives you some customization capabilities by being able to chose between different color schemes and fonts. Some believe it is very important to be able to chose your own color preference and fonts whereas others believe it is not a big deal. The HTC Sense is also known for Blinkfeed, which keeps all your social media updates on your home screen.
