My recent purchase of Samsung S23 Ultra at almost £800 is full of Samsung crud and spying that I can't remove.

Cost is no guide on a crud-free experience.

Cute thinking Samsung's own apps are spyware crud. Is Apple's iCloud app also crud spyware?

If you wanna see spyware crud Try buying Chinese phones with Candy Crush and third party Chines apps and games you can't uninstall and show you ads in the menus.

I don’t think it’s a controversial opinion to state that yes, Apple software is higher quality and more privacy respecting than Samsungs.

Based on what impartial third party tests is this claim based?

Cost is no guide, but incentives are higher at the cheaper ranges.
