As ZH says, root the phone and then use something like Super Manager to delete the guff you don't want/need. Of course, rooting the phone also means you can add things like an ad blocker which has an obvious appeal.
Of course, you can go further like I have and install a whole new modified operating system which means I don't have the pre-installed crud, I have more features AND my battery life is longer.
All depends on how brave you are.........
