Fucking hate Sony. Had an Xperia and the bloatware was over the top. Main issue is Sony is priced higher than other OEM but with less specs. Just over itself. Sick of conglomerates
I had a bunch of Xperias and never encountered any bloat, battery life was great. Unfortunately lately only the top of the line is decent, I had an Xperia 10 and it absolutely sucked, it was the last of 5 consecutive Xperias I bought.
I’m writing this from my Xperia. It doesn’t have CoD or OneDrive. It has Facebook, but so does every mainstream phone. Only extremely niche, privacy-focused manufacturers don’t have Facebook at this point.
It has LinkedIn, but I have had to use that professionally and would have installed it anyways. It’s similar to Facebook where only niche manufacturers don’t have it. Compared to Google, Samsung, and Apple, Sony phones are pretty clean. Compared to niche companies like Fairphone, yes Sony has more bloat.
Sony. Often overlooked, but very solid smartphones. Maybe because they aren’t as sharply priced as a lot of the competition.

Compared to Samsung and some other brands, it actually doesn’t have a lot of bloatware. Very rarely had any issues with the Xperia I had.
I might buy a Pixel in the future though. Or a Fairphone. Would be cool if Framework started making smartphones.

Geez downvoted for an opinion.
Sony has good hardware but it does come with Facebook, OneDrive, LinkedIn, Call of Duty, and a few more. It absolutely has bloatware.

Love my Xperia 1 IV. Had a couple Pixels before this. Those were great but the Sony hardware feels superior in every way.
