Solved: Galaxy s4 firmware branded or unbranded

Anonymous · ‎10-01-2014

Apart from speed of getting new firmware, what benefit is there to having the unbranded firmware, does it make the phone more responsive ect or is there no difference

Less network bloatware makes it use less RAM and is therefore more efficient (speed & battery usage).

Ok thanks MI5, wasn't sure how much bloat ware there was on there apart from the start-up and shutdown splash screen

Bookmarks, apps and app shortcuts, music files etc. Not too much but enough to irritate me

True, forgot about them. I'd prefer my phone as Samsung intended as well. Thanks again
