T-Mobile subscriber shares what made him ‘angry’ after buying a new phone

Third-party apps mentioned in the list that come pre-installed on his new phone include the following:

  • Monopoly GO! – mobile video game based on the popular board game.
  • Block Blast – a simple, addictive block puzzle game.
  • Royal Match – the heavily promoted app is a match-3 puzzle game similar to a game like Candy Crush.
  • Yelp: Food Delivery and Reviews – this is a local business review app that allows users to order food from local restaurants.
  • Temu: Shop Like a Billionaire is a shopping platform with a wide range of items at affordable prices.
  • Newsbreak: Local News and Alerts – this is a news app that uses AI to alert you to news that the app thinks you’ll want to read.
In addition to these apps, the Reddit subscriber notes, “On top of that, they installed Amazon, Facebook, and a million other apps on my phone that I don’t use. So frustrating.”
Redditors had some advice for “SleazyAndEasy” and several users advised him to buy a Pixel since Google’s Android phones typically offer a clean Android experience without bloatware. Another obvious piece of advice from the peanut gallery suggests that next time T Mobile Subscriber buys a new one Android phoneHe doesn’t buy it sealed from the shipping company. Instead, they said he should buy a factory unlocked phone instead.

Others also recommended that he buy an iPhone instead of an Android phone next time. One Redditor, a lifelong Android user, recently switched to the iPhone T Mobile “I pushed garbage apps onto my 9-year-old twins’ phones, bypassing my parental controls. Now we’re all on iPhones. I hate the primitive nature of iOS, but am tired of these gimmicks.”

Honestly, some of these apps can be easily removed. Personally, I have never been upset or frustrated after purchasing a new device Android phone and finding bloatware on the device. Installing third-party apps on new Android phones allows carriers to take advantage of similar features T Mobile to offer consumers better deals on new devices. I agree that if your phone is so annoyed when you unbox it full of bloatware that you’re “angry” you should buy your next one Android phone unlocked and not through a cell phone provider. Or buy an iPhone or a Pixel.
