Looks like the Google-Samsung terms were to ensure that Samsung does not keep the Google branding and services in the back. Samsung for the longest time has put prominence in their services and the average user sees very little of Google in Galaxy devices. This has gone on to make the Galaxy brand bigger than Android among Samsung devices. 

What can be interesting even is the part where Google announced Samsung as one of the partners in smart watches, this comes just three weeks after Samsung announced Tizen running smart watches.

But why the branding, have Google terms changed? But the Pure Android devices are never available in Africa.

Nope, TouchWiz is going nowhere, but as they did with the Galaxy S4, I expect a GPE to sell in the course of the year.

Interesting change of events, the Galaxy S 5 has explicit branding for all things Google, including when the OS boots, see here https://plus.google.com/+MartinGicheru/posts/9LuhbzzibDt




Also, on the main home-screen, there is a folder with Google services once you make the first setup.
