But this is not about opinions or what you and I perceive to be best. This is about the OP and offering suggestions to help him/her achieve what they want. Then they can peruse the suggestions and make an informed decision based on their needs.
If we're just talking about the OP making an informed decision, then the first answer that was a good answer was Lotus49, who in post #10 suggested that disabling apps was just a waste of time and doesn't provide a material difference. Someone should have given that answer a lot sooner, so that the OP could have made an informed decision. I'm a bit surprised I didn't jump in with that type of advice sooner.
I've disabled four apps:
1. NFL Mobile, because after I signed up it started sending me unwanted information about games I had not yet watched. Disabling it was easier than figuring out how to turn off that feature of an app I found I have no use for.
2. S-Voice, because I want to use the Google voice feature and didn't want to worry which voice feature I was using.
3. Multimedia UI Service Layer, because it would sometimes turn on the wrong music play when connecting to bluetooth.
4. S-Health, because I was probably being stupid. I remember reading something about that app, but don't remember what.
Note none of this was to speed up my phone. It was all to deal with a specific issue. A list of apps you can disable won't really help you with that sort of thing.
But again, people can do whatever they want. I don't have a problem with that. But to the extent someone claims that they got some sort of speed increase by doing that, I would attribute that to a placebo effect, as explained by Lotus49.
