What is Bloatware and what is NOT?

[timbre]

Ok, simple question I would think. I have a rooted s4 and want to remove uneeded apps and bloatware. The most important things I do not want to affect are the wifi capability ( I use the phone to tether), 4g download speeds. Does anyone have a list of what CAN be removed and what should NOT be removed?

Or just disable the unwanted apps in app manager. No root required.
