Samsung phones are about 50% bloatware and 50% bad Android Software nowadays.

Maybe mine have less bloat because I'm in Australia, maybe I don't consider some of the apps to be bloat, not sure - but I've had Samsung's since the S2 and I've always been content with my phones.

I have definitely found the software to be improved over the years, and I love that I can customise the colours of every element down to hyperlinks in my text messages, all using their Theme Park app from their funny little app store. They also have a few other decent apps to change around the notification bar icons and things like that.

I'll definitely be sticking with Samsung as long as all of these things keep going in a happy direction.
