You don't need an antivirus on android. Not unless you're sideloading apps and your device doesn't have Google Play on it. Notifications about phone os updates seems like a bit of a stretch. When my Windows device has updates I can't remove those notifications. And on MacOS I can't close the update window though the notification can be dismissed (at least for the Big Sur update I just did last week). iPhone's have apps that can't be removed that come from Apple. Ever tried removing Siri? Bixby seems like Samsung's rough equivalent. Some Apple apps you can remove but then the phone's "system functionality" becomes questionable (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208094 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208094). Seeing as android=Google, and Samsung=Note10 it's not too much of a stretch for them to bundle apps. I'd agree--it'd still be nice to be able to remove everything. But the bundleware you're complaining about, outside of the device manufacturers and OS owner, amount to Netflix, Facebook, and OneDrive. Yea less than ideal. But disable them if you don't want them there and they'll be as good as gone aside from a few mb of space. Again--not ideal, but it's hard to believe this is that big of a deal breaker.
