I've been using Samsung Phone for a decade now. I love Samsung phones more than anything. They are just wonderful and tempting. But this time with the S25 Ultra they made some huge mistakes I'd say. 
Firstly they remove the Bluetooth fron the Stylus. 
Then the second thing I noticed is that I don't have the MICROSOFT OFFICE 365 pre installed. Like how is that even possible.

Cause everytime I buy a new Samsung mobile it already comes with the Microsoft folder. But this time I was shocked. I was disappointed. 

Samsung can do better.

Well, that would be a plus for me.  I spend time deleting those apps when I find them on my phone.  If you want them, download them, simple as that. It's not like it's hard to do.

Yeah that's right but if you're a student or someone who works and uses these apps on daily basis you'd definitely want them on your phone. Cause you go through documents, files, etc every single day.

Well I downloaded it from the store. Thanks though.

I get the stylus thing, but in the big picture, not many people ever actually use it for the function of going through Bluetooth anyway. IMO, there were more cons than pros for that. Now as far as writing, etc, it still works great and will be a big plus when editing document, etc.

 

As far a MS 360, well that is not a big deal too not have come it pre-installed. The fact that is was just as easy going to the Google Play Store to get it in seconds proves that. I mean this sincerely, but when spending $1k+ on a smartphone. then one should be checking out before that purchase, what will be included on those devices, along wiht what they want have/expect to be included (as in previously included, but no longer) on the devices they want.

I’m one of them that’s glad it’s not a pre installed app since I hate having to delete all of the apps I don’t use on right after setup.

I'll pass on the Microsoft. If I need it I'll load it, otherwise just another thing to clean out.

@omoorrrr I think the pre-installation of MS Office 365 was done by your carrier. I have had unlocked Samsung devices for years and have never had that pre-installed.

It came pre-installed on my A54. I bought it unlocked. I removed everything except Excel, since I still use some spreadsheets.

@realaud A Microsoft folder was pre-installed on my unlocked S25 Ultra. It contains:

  • M365 Copilot
  • OneDrive
  • Outlook

But not Office 365.

Mine came with M365 co-pilot, Lens, Excel, and Word.  I don't think it came in a pre-formed Microsoft folder though, just the individual apps. I did not uninstall them, I just don't use them. I do not think Outlook came with it, if it did, I uninstalled *that*.
