Samsung has announced that Amazon Music will be pre-installed on its Galaxy phones and tablets. This update not only increases the number of third-party apps on devices but also offers a three-month free subscription to new users.
Samsung has revealed that Amazon Music will join the catalog of pre-installed applications on its Galaxy smartphones and tablets. This change comes ahead of the upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event and adds to the list of various third-party apps that already come with the devices.
While the addition of Amazon Music may appeal to some users, it could be seen as a nuisance by others who do not want additional bloatware on their devices. The pre-installed apps, including Amazon Music, can accumulate to more than 1GB of storage, which may discourage potential buyers.
Unlike Samsung, competitors such as Apple do not include third-party applications as default installations on their devices, which could resonate better with users looking for a streamlined experience. This comparison highlights a growing frustration among consumers regarding pre-installed software.
To mitigate dissatisfaction, Samsung and Amazon are providing a three-month free subscription to Amazon Music Unlimited for those who download the app from the Galaxy Store. However, users need to be mindful that if they do not cancel their subscription after the trial period, they will be charged $13 monthly.
