Uninstall 3rd Party Apps

[Abdelmalek]

Hi, I'm super keen to buy the XZ1 Compact as it is the only Android phone of its type. What I don't understand is - how come we can't uninstall 3rd party apps like Kindle, Amazon, FB or AVG? The 32 GB of memory isn't much these days and every little extra bit helps. Does Sony get money from these companies for preventing uninstall? Sure seems like it.

Those apps are located in system partion, not user, you won't be able to use that space even if you manage to delete them (using root access). Still you can disable thrm through settings that way they won't be able to update or work in background and icon will be hidden from launcher.
