I am looking forward to this... I just got my wife a Mate 10 pro 1 month ago and I have to say it's a really nice phone, and not all bloated out like every Samsung ever.
I guess Anandtech should like into this. I have a Samsung, though it is bloated, I was able to disable not often used apps with a built-in feature and Greenify. My launcher is Nova with no icons/apps on the screen. No slowdowns at all except launching apps which are not in memory.
I agree, Samsung has support for microSD cards and on any flash tier 128GB or above keeping the (carrier specific) bloat disabled shouldn't be too much of an annoyance, they'll probably just take around 0.5GB of space and nothing else. The current Samsung Experience is pretty refined otherwise.
