I recently got a Sony Xperia Z3 Compact which I am delighted with.

I do however want to remove some of the pre-installed Apps.

My old phone (HTC Wildfire) was low in storage, so I was only able to download a handful (if that) of Apps.

No doubt my new phone has space for zillions of Apps, but I may as well get rid of those I don't need.

I don't use Twitter or any of those 'kind of things' so no doubt I'll delete those.

What others are safe to remove ?

thank you

Go into settings and try to uninstall the ones you don't want. I would guess that you will find you can't as they are installed in the system partition. You can disable them but that won't free up any storage but will stop them appearing in your app drawer. The only way to remove them is to root your phone. Whist this isnt hard I wouldn't recommend it as I believe that you lose the Sony camera drivers when rooted. Anyway way you have 16gb internal memory and a SD card slot which is plenty of space.
