How to secure a Samsung device?
I have just received a Samsung galaxy fold5 through the post, however I imagine it's full of bloatware and I'm inexperienced with this type of device. What is the first things that you would do to secure it? Thank you 😊
Edit: I mean to be more privacy focused

I think you confuse security and privacy. Samsung are pretty secure from what I saw. They are not private at all however. You can debloat it with adb and maybe tools such as Universal Android Debloater.
There is a couple of guide such as this one: https://linustechtips.com/topic/1402380-ultimate-samsung-oneui-debloat-privacy-customization-guide/
Hey that's me!
One thing I noticed is I never updated the app icon customization section. You don't need Asapticons/Icon mixer. Themepark has an option to add custom icons now!
I can also post my De-Bloater config (root only)/list of apps (that can be used to disable them via ADB) I've removed when I update the post in a bit.
I'm still on Fold3/OneUI 5.1 but apps should be similar.
Thank you very much. You're right there 👍
