Ask HN: Stock Android tablet free of bloatware?

10 points by miki_tyler 20 hours ago

I asked this question before about cellphones, now I'm in the market for a tablet.

Is there an Android device that comes without pre-installed bloatware, gets long-term support, and stays up to date with the latest Android versions?

Funny that it is not just Apple doing that. Samsung also and that has happen ty Galaxy. They break the device you pay'd for. But any Android device will have Android unwanted apps, vender unwanted apps and spy crap like Facebook app for UI and 3 more to keep sending Facebook all data. So if you don't connect any Andoid to a PC and remove that crap, you're out of luck. It is not just bloatware. It's spyware.

I'm interested in this for a snart home dashboard. I've had a Galaxy Tab A7 Lite that got absolutely destroyed by the Android update and now even basic UI interactions are super laggy.

I've tried to look into alternative Android distributions like LineageOS but I haven't found anything suitable yet.
