The homescreen with and without the theme. You get new icons and a new wallpaper.

We've never really been fans of skinning Android. Adding new features is fine, but OEMs try to "brand" the software by changing the colors and icons, which usually makes things look worse and really only serves to make things harder for new users. No OEM tries to "brand" the Windows UI—you can happily hop from one computer to another and all the icons and buttons will be the same. Similarly, on Android, when you hop from phone to tablet to watch to TV to car, if would be nice if all the designs and buttons on those devices looked the same.
Lately more and more phones have been shipping with a built-in theme store, and when we see them we usually think, "Yes! A way to get rid of this skin!" Samsung's Galaxy S6 shipped with a built-in theme store, but at launch it only had a handful of ugly skins—mostly officially licensed Avengers skins (like a red and chrome Iron Man skin. Yikes.) or "Character" themes that filled the UI with cutesy Hello-Kitty style characters. Today, Samsung started posting skins from third parties, and one of the best-looking and most popular ones is a theme that brings TouchWiz more in line with stock Android.
There are actually two different Stock Android skins fighting for acceptance in the Samsung Theme Store. Above we have pictures for Samer Zayer's "Material" theme, which is currently rolling out in Samsung's store. Right now reports are all over the place as to availability, with some users seeing the theme and some not getting it yet. The theme should eventually show in either the "New" section or the weirdly exclusionary and grammatically questionable "Themes for Man" section—Samsung thinks women don't like stock Android, apparently.
