Hum. No, some manufacturers don't "fill". They add less customization,
like Motorola (Lenovo group). This way updates come faster.

    I said "fill", because it's the term 's|b' used. I don't consider my
phones "filled with crap" or having too much customization.
 

Samsung phones use to have older Android versions, and sometimes they
don't update the phone to the next version after being sold. And that
update comes several months later, because they have to add again their
customization layer. And in the case of Samsung, it is big.

    As you said, that *used* to be the case, but is no longer the case for
many years, at least 4+ years, but probably longer. My 4+ year old
Samsung Galaxy A51 lower-range phone came with Android 10 and was
updated to 11, 12 and finally 13.

Probably because your phone is high end. AFAIK Samsung does this with only some models.
