Now that we see that Google is also selling Samsung S4, HTC One, and Sony Z with Google own Nexus OS, i am just wondering if I buy these phones from AT&T, would I be able to install the Google OS onto these phones?
One reason that is holding me back from buying Android phones is the bloatwares. I have Galaxy S Captivate, and the bloatwares irritate me. I also own Galaxy Tab 2. While the bloatware is minimal on the Tab 2 vs Captivate, but I am still somewhat irritated me as I am not able to completely delete them (only disable).
I own iPhone 5 and just bought Blackberry Z10. Both phones do not have bloatwares on their OS, which I like. Sure, Z10 has some AT&T stuff on it, but these are mostly just shortcut icons (not programs).
I hate bloatwares to the core. When I buy new laptops, I always spend some time to completely wipe the HD and reinstall new fresh copy of Windows.
You may think, why don't I just buy Nexus or these phones straight from Google? Well, it's because I prefer to buy contract phone with reduced price vs buying it outright, it's my preference.
Now I want to buy the Sony Z as it's a waterproof phone, so I want to use Sony when I am traveling on vacation/holiday, but if I can not get rid of the bloatwares, then I may never buy Android phones ever.
