While that is true, it is important to only disable 1-2 items at a time. That way, if you have trouble with the phone after disabling apps, it's easy to determine the cause. Disable 1-2 apps, then test the phone for at least 6 hours, including running everything you normally use.

Gonna try that. Those warning that the phone may not work properly worries me.

Most apps display that message when you disable them. I have been disabling apps for years and never had a problem. If there ever is a problem just go back in and select Enable

I've disabled a few and nothing seems affected so far.

Many of them are only on Samsung devices, but it's a good start as to what you can likely disable without a system issue. There are also multiple games and Google apps that can simply be uninstalled.
