This is where system apps come into play. Granted, it’s hard for OEMs to pick which apps can be uninstalled or not. What I think of as bloatware may not be the same as what you think of as bloatware. On the contrary, similar apps on other vendors can only be disabled. Xiaomi will also allow users to remove Downloads, File Manager, Themes, Music, and Video apps.
