The last thing I'd do is "remove" the histogram from my image reviews!
The histogram is probably the single most useful part of image playback. It's far more informative than the image itself. The histogram, once you know how to read it, gives you the best feedback about the accuracy of your exposure.
It's easy to "magnify" the image to be able to see it larger (see above response....plus most Canon have + and - buttons, labelled in blue, that allow you to enlarge or reduce the image playback). I only use that to check composition, and maybe focus. And it has to be pretty bad for me to delete, since most image evaluations and judgments are so much better done later using a much bigger, calibrated computer monitor.
Also, not sure about your camera, but many Canon allow you to configure the image playback orientation. You can set the camera to never rotate images, always rotate images right side up, or to only rotate images right side up in computer, not in the camera. I always use the latter setting because doing that allows vertical/portrait orientation shots to display as large as possible on the camera's LCD screen. Sure, that means the images are "sideways" if holding the camera in horizontal/landscape orientation. But it's very easy simply rotate the camera to view the image right side up, whenever that's wanted.
One more suggestion.... I set my cameras with Automatic Image Review turned off. That saves a lot of battery power and is much less distracting than having every image play back immediately after it's shot. I just "spot check" images every so often, manually calling them up for review.
