I've similar requirements and I've seen the experia 10 III. Last time I've looked at it, it had uninstallable bloatware like facebook and the facebook services preloaded on it. I don't think it is acceptable. Has this changed? I'm still looking for a decent phone.

Facebook is preinstalled, yes, although you can disable it (and from adb maybe even uninstall it completely). As for "Facebook services"...

I searched, and there are in fact 4 services! They are apparently disabled too, but I'm going to remove them from adb in any case, thanks!

I've heard that now you cannot really uninstall anything from adb (at least without root), only disable something for the current user
