Is there a mobile company that does not preload rubbish like upday? I have a samsung

[Android Central Question]

Upday appeared when I let my mobile update. Despite good advice from people on forums, plus samsung and virgin I haven't even managed to get rid of notifications. I want an honest mobile that doesn't give access to my phone away without my expressed and informed consent. Might seem trivial but I resent it. Thanks

Welcome to Android Central! The best way to avoid bloatware would be to get either a Pixel phone or an Android One phone, carrier-unlocked. Otherwise, you often have to deal with preinstalled bloat -- it's one of the ways a manufacturer and/or carrier helps subsidize the cost of the phone.
