I've been a happy Samsung customer for the longest time, because I basically flashed their nice hardware with cyanogenmod.
My recently purchase S7 is the first ever cellphone I return to the store because: 1) It's way too hard to flash their exynos based hardware and 2) the default install comes with 14Gb of garbage included. That includes the full microsoft office and a slew of garbage apps I'll never use (I'd include the launcher in that, but I understand some people like it, so I'll it a pass)
Annecdata, but I have now become this guy who will tirelessly slap Samsung's garbage software "strategy" every time I have the opportunity.
