So, there’s been ample discussion in the corresponding community threads and Samsung has gotten a lot of hate there.

Sadly the S23 looks rather tempting to me, since the pixel 7a I replaced my 5 with is too big for my liking.

How much Pixel-like experience can I achieve if I uninstall all the Samsung bloatware? What will I miss out on? Do I have to expect it running sluggish or unstable? Or will I get any errors due to missing samsung software components? Will all the apps reinstall on updates?

And since OneUI6 is around the corner: Will the ADB-debloat also work with the newer version?

Thanks!

    On my S23u, S10, and Tab 7l I changed the UI to Nova Prime and used “ADB App Control” or straight ADB commands(S10) to remove anything I didn’t want there.

    I haven’t seen anything reinstall and there has been no problems removing unnecessary things on any of those devices.

      good to know!

      As much as I like tinkering with stuff I really don’t want my phone be something that needs constant attention…
