The expensive models also have ad/crapware, don't forget about that fun feature

I didn't know about the adware but I know they bundle a lot of duplicate shit in the deluded belief that people want to use Samsung's payment system, or appstore or any of the other parallel universe junk that just stinks up the phone.

You shouldn't have to do this if course, but if you want to remove all the shit they put on phones it's very easy and safe to use ADB. XDA usually has a list of the things that are safe to remove and there are tutorials online.
