It seems like we might have our first look at the Galaxy S5 home screen.

EV Leaks has posted alleged images of both the lock and home screen. Both suggest that Samsung has its own Google Now-esque system in the works, that will deliver notifications, news stories and other such contextual information right to your screen.

We don’t know just how far the UI will go just yet, and how it will stack up next to Google’s own service. And we likely won’t know that much more until the Galaxy S5 is officially revealed. Hopefully that will be in March.
