Legacy S Phones@eastie The only apps that Samsung would add would be Samsung apps or Android apps crucial to system operation. Some carriers install apps that they are promoting. This is especially true of carrier devices.

This is why it is *not* recommended to buy Samsung phones through your carrier. Samsung allows carriers like AT&T to install junk apps and promotional content in order to subsidize the price.
This allows carriers to offer the phones at a slightly lower price point, but is rarely worth the headache of unwanted apps.
It is best to purchase your phones factory unlocked, either directly from Samsung or at a reputable retailer like Best Buy to avoid bloat apps.
