Have had my Rezound about a week. I now have over a 100 apps, mostly that I downloaded. Some are used regularly, some are nice to haves just in case, others may not ever use and will be uninstalled after I check them out a little more.

Is this too many? Opinions.

Email: Touchdown -> Corporate Email with Active Sync
OCS: Office Talk Free -> Just what it says.
Tools: Multiple.
Media: 3rd party for music, pics and vid.
Games: A few (6)
Browsers: Dolphin and Boat Browser as well as the stock. I like both of these better
Widgets/apps: Quick connect for GPS, WIFI, Bluetooth, Display Brightness, Battery (2)


EDIT: FYI, unlocked, rooted, unbloated with custom ROM (Scotts CleanRom 1.5.5)

Well, so far so good then, Mr. Smith. What's your thoughts on removing the standard apps for media and others if I want to stay with the 3rd party apps?

Would clean up some space to download some more useless ones, LOL.:D

I've removed plenty. Just remember that some do impact others so when you remove an app maybe move it to a backup directory for a week or copy it to your PC before deleting it for good.

Unless, of course, you enjoy migraine headaches and kicking yourself in the arse for not backing them up :p

I'm in agreement I have downloaded so many and I think I maybe half on a weekly basis. I did a clean up recently and I currently have 42.

I hover between 90 and a 110 apps. If I didn't clean up once in awhile I would have around 300. I have quite a list in my all category in the play store.
