What kind of bloatware does it have? my samsung g8 had bixby and i absolutely hated it.

A53 comes with Samsung’s own version of a number of standard Google apps included on Android, (i.e. calendar, contacts, etc.), so you have two of each. Absolutely useless. Samsung looked at Google’s user data harvesting and said, “We could do that too”.

Does A53 have bands 71?

Yes, this is the US version of the A53. It supports both LTE band 71 and 5g band n71. Anyone who claims that this phone does not support band 71 is probably thinking about the international version… or is just plain wrong.

Very loud speaker?

The speaker in itself is loud and clear but even better, for me, the Bluetooth connected easily to my hearing aids.

Yes. You will have to purchase a sim card from Verizon, unless you already have one from another phone!
