Pretty sure you need to get root access to do that, but I would not recommend it because sometimes uninstalling pre installed apps can screw everything up because of the skin, Sometimes not all the time.

You don't necessarily need to flash a custom rom to uninstall apps, all you need is root access.

Yeah, Android usually has garbage from the manufacturer. If you're lucky you may be able to disable them (I forget how), but I think you long-press on an app in the app drawer.

 

Or, go with iOS.

You're right iOS doesn't come with bloatware, got to give them credit for that... but to be fair neither does android... it's only that some phone manufactures decide to add bloatware to their phones.

Sooo, Android gets bloatware. Doesn't matter who it's from - if it's there, it's bloatware.

 

Wow, my rhyming game is so strong.

sorry to say this but 'there' and 'bloatware', it's not exactly a perfect rhyme.

They both end in 'ere' even though it's spelled differently.
