One of the biggest complaints leveled at Android smartphones is the plethora of apps, many of which unwanted, that come preinstalled on the devices. Samsung has listened to this and has made the bloatware it installs on the Galaxy S6 user-removable.

According to screenshots uploaded to the XDA Developers forum by member Jeshter2000, users are able to uninstall a range of apps including Google apps such as YouTube and Play Store, along with the Microsoft OneDrive, OneNote, and Skype apps.

Not only that, but users will also be able to delete Samsung's own apps, such as Calculator, S Voice, and S Health.

Deleting unwanted apps not only allows the user to free up space on the smartphone, but also allows them to streamline the user interface to suit their needs.

This offers the best of both worlds, allowing those who like getting free stuff to continue to have access to free stuff, while simultaneously allowing those who want a more pure Android experience to get it.
