abatically:
I agree with all but the default browser, at least for Samsung phones. Samsung browser on the s7 is a great browser that supports ad blocking without rooting. Samsung has also updated it on the s6. Google has disabled ad blocking on their chrome browser. Normally my default browser is chrome but I often use Samsung browser for websites with heavy ads.

how much is s6 now

If you installed linda ikeji app, uninstall it now. That app does background syncing, draining your data anytime you go online. Don't believe me, check your data usage in settings.

Point no 3 is fallacy. You can't be on Android OS without using antivirus. Your phone will crash sooner than later.
Android OS is an open source and its not safe.
Not all android apps can be gotten from playstore

Android does not need Anti-virus... Virus don't have effect on them bro

Shut it!
What do you know about Android OS?

All you do is download apps from play store and chat on either bbm or whatsapp

I disagree with number 5 sha cos my own phone browser is beta than any uc or cm browsers... Easy to use, fast download, great speed and consumes low ram

Op i think all you have said is based on your own opinion..the only one i agree with you on is the batter saving app..it never worked for me so i don't bother installing them..but why won't i have facebook app, google chrome(i currently have over 200 sites opened down on it), antivirus app( ask those people that watch po}} on their phones especially the naija's po{{ ooo, u will be asked to click on this pics to see more and voila virus don enter ur phone be dat)

well to me the best way to reduce loads on ur phone is to delete videos and if possible delete games and most importantly delete apps that you don't use,i have got apps that i haven't touched this year and all i hv to do is delete them when i need space on my phone and just incase that i need them later on,all i have to do is re-install them oooo i have got unlimited wifi tongue

Very helpful. Those apps don't only kill battery or reduce fone efficiency but consume most of your data.

Re: Here's The 5 Apps You Should Remove Right Now From Your Smartphone by Funjosh(m): 9:57am On Apr 20, 2016

Facebook app and Default browser still cool with me, but I don't just fancy the rest u listed here.

Re: Here's The 5 Apps You Should Remove Right Now From Your Smartphone by Nobody: 10:04am On Apr 20, 2016

See how to hibernate all those apps instead of freezing or removing them.

I have never installed any anti virus on any of my android phones. I'm an heavy user, jump everywhere to download and do loads of stuffs but have never been infected by any virus. My present phone is the only phone I'm yet to root and perform techy stuffs on cos of the monthly updates it receives

Actually antivirus are useless on android , they can't stop a malicious code
from compromising your phone, they serve only aesthetic purpose.

Re: Here's The 5 Apps You Should Remove Right Now From Your Smartphone by azpekuliar: 10:34am On Apr 20, 2016

The Facebook App is not leaving my phone anytime soon.

The default browser is far more secured than any other browser especially against anti philising, online tracking and can ssve data too, It resolves proxy issues better.if your are on 3G or wireless network, you dont need chrome neither opera

To save data go to setting>bandwith management untick. What's the need or use of seeing senators, governors ,ministers and President and their wives faces on news always At settings> advance untick javasxript or set on demand
Another awesome app is link2sd
You can delete all apps, frozen and defrozen all apps for ezample after download check ur battery perxentage before going to sleep freeze all apps, wake up at your usual time recheck the percentage
What means all your apps operates on demand.

Very interesting Op

I support the suggestions but default browser. Default browsers are inbuilt with "admin" access and logic operations that are not open to foreign apps.

Talking about Apple Ipadmini2 (and possibly other apple devices), the default browser - Safari has a way that let's you download a PDF file to Ibook or Adobe or "note". When you open a pdf file in the safari and tap it, you see options at the top of the page: "open in ibook" and at the left, "open in..." (which allows you to download it to adobe, notes, etc).

I tried doing this in Chrome but was not able to. Chrome will even tell you to "open in safari".

And this is an example of how default browsers of every phone has a superior access capalities than any foreign browser.

In conclusion, you can download your easy to use browsers, but leave your default browser for the more crude internet access

You are lying sir , I have been using my android phone for two years and it is near to virus free . I have seen people with more than one anti-virus on their android phone battling with virus related issue on their phones .

You will be deceiving yourself if you think anti-virus can protect your android phone .if you care to know how you can use your device without an anti-virus , simply ask .

Op is 75℅ percent on point . when people complain to me that their device is draining battery . the first thing I look for is to see if there is any anti-virus or battery saving apps on the phone .if there is I simply uninstall them and do some other check .
