It was an unlocked samsung phone as well, an S9 to be specific. All the bloat on there is from samsung themselves and it frequently sent samsung ads as notifications (which couldn't be disabled) and had a constant notification telling the user to sign into their samsung account (which couldn't be dismissed or disabled).
The gallery app had ads between the images, that's what I meant.
If that isn't bad bloat, I don't know what is.
The phone showed ad notifications right out of the box and got software updates without issues, so definitely no malware.
Not sure when the gallery thing started but it was definitely the samsung app (which is a system app so you can't do anything to it without root).
The phone is gone now because it got slower over time until it became unusable. Androbench showed that the eMMC was perfectly fine, so that was due to updates.
