I don't think ANY hardware wallet requires a full blockchain...

As the subjects says, Is there any way I can use a hardware wallet without downloading the blockchain? The size is currently 65 GB and it will take a hell lot of time if I use bitcoin core. Is there any alternative available in the market?
The hardware wallets that i know, keepkey, ledger, trezor and many other do not need to download the whole blockchain to use their wallet service. If you mean about desktop wallets then electrum is a good choice in your case.
