At least on Android, it's pretty easy to uninstall all the bloatware and leave only what you need. Why are you not doing it if you miss it?

All you need is to enable developer options, enable adb debugging, install adb or Android developer tools on the computer, connect phone with USB and do a bunch of "adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 some.package.name" for a bunch of packages.

Ok, now that I wrote it, it's not that simple, especially knowing what to uninstall, but it's not rocket science either.
