Yes...   Almost apps  come  as "preinstall" option  and they are 
installed in  /data  partitiion... so  when you reset to factory 
settings  all of that apps  will be lost....
When you recover the device with the SD card   in the first boot   the 
system  ask for the  language , network config... and you have the 
option to install ( one by one, all  or none ) most of the included apps.
