That's what I thought, but I was looking on Amazon, and they didn't mention WiFi or bluetooth.

I don't use Amazon, so I'm not familiar with how the products are presented there, but obviously someone thinks that such things are taken for granted - because who would buy a smartphone without WiFi or Bluetooth. However, there may be a small group of people who would be interested in such devices in order to use them as airgapped devices for cold wallets, which would mean that without WiFi, Bluetooth and SIM card such smartphones would not be able to communicate wirelessly with Internet.
Me, too, is also annoyed by the pre-installed applications from google, but as a Huawei phone user, I find it incomplete without using Google Playstore.
It's because you are too used to Google playstore and nothing else. I have already familiarized myself with Huawei's App gallery on my phone as i am looking forward to getting another one of their phones and most of the popular apps are in thereThere are a couple of popular third party android app stores I know about such as APKpure, and they always keep them updated. Whatever app you might fail to get in Huawei AppGallery, you can easily get it from 3rd party app stores.

I've been looking at Google free Huawei phones, but the latest models don't seem to have WiFi. This surprises me if it is true.
Impossible, what kind of smartphone would it be without WiFi? Look at all the available models here : https://www.gsmarena.com/huawei-phones-58.php , and you will see under Comms that each phone has listed something like this -> "WLAN Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual-band, Wi-Fi Direct, hotspot"

...however other preinstalled applications takes so much space in my phone, I don't even use it. It takes so much memory and it can't be uninstalled.
Are you sure about all preinstalled apps can't be uninstalled? Some can certainly be removed without rooting your phone, you just need to follow few simple steps. For me, they are not a problem because I have 128 GB of space and 6 GB of RAM in my Huawei, which is more than enough for one smartphone.

...but soon all the games on playstore will be available on thier app gallery
Not only that, Huawei is very close to launching its Harmony OS on smartphones which will definitely be a turning point in their business. Unfortunately Huawei is facing a loss of chips and display panels for their devices, so their future production will be quite difficult. Given the influence that the USA has in the world, if Huawei wants to survive, it will have to produce all the necessary components in China. But even that may not be enough, because I believe that the attacks on this company will go so far that some countries under pressure will be forced to ban the sale of their devices.
I like huawie because of its camera and storage even it doesnt have google playstore, but soon all the games on playstore will be available on thier app gallery
I'm not bothered about privacy, but I am annoyed by useless apps being installed, and using up resources and bandwidth. I must be pretty boring because I don't want to listen to music on the phone, or send pictures of my tonsils or other body parts to people, or use any of the other gimmicky apps that seem to try to install themselves.
I also don't like when phone is full of pre-installed apps, especially these which aren't needed for me. Rooting your phone helps in such cases, but downside of it that you loose warranty.I like Android One series phones because basically, it's clean Android without bloatware and just some pre-installed Google apps.

Never been fan of Huawei, but they were turning into serious competitor for Samsung and Apple. They were offering quite good phones for low price. But now, without Google services it looks like half-working product. Yes, Huawei are making their own AppGallery, but it reminds me story of WindowsPhone and how they failed. You simply won't find so many apps that you need. And I think it's not likely that majority of apps that you can find on Google Play will be ever uploaded there.
So, I don't any reasons to buy Huawei when I simply can buy fully working Android phone. Well, unless you're hardcore Huawei fan, but you have to be ready for lot of inconvenience while using this phone.
And none of Android phones is good in terms of privacy. If you really concerned about it, it would best to use old Nokia phone.

I don't install any social media apps, and I have disabled play services. My phone is not a play thing. 
Significantly you're been spied by a certain company either by the USA(Google) or the China (Huawei). So how could one be able to use social media apps houses by Google play services?
YouTube push things that don't interest me based on a misunderstanding of some of my posting and searches. One possibly amusing example is happening at the moment. Because I have been discussing and searching about hard drive problems, YouTube has started to suggest videos about erectile dysfunction. I'm not sure Viagra will help maintain hard drives in my computer.

I also don't like Google's policy, which is that the browser should decide what to read and what to watch. And also I am the owner of a phone from a Chinese manufacturer. Everything can be easily configured by disabling and removing various services and prohibiting updates. In addition, YouTube has such a function when browsing history, search history, and much more are not saved. There are many videos on YouTube showing how to do to turn off Google tracking forever.
Also found an open-source browser on GitHub.

Ungoogled-chromium, in which all Google trackers are completely turned off. There is also a version for the android.
WhatsApp does not require Google or any of it's services. Install WhatsApp APK by sideloading from Whatsapp website and you are good to go.
Whatsapp does not required Google as you said. But you what about backing up whatsapp chat. You can only back up chat on your device or Google drive. And many will prefer cloud backup. So whatsapp need Google for something too.
I am a Huawei user but I don't even think my phone without google apps.My phone is little old and all google app run smoothly.I have seen a lot of new huawei users are running google apps using third party apps.So I think it will be boring without Facebook,Whatsapp,Youtube ,Gmail and so others.And no phone can survive without google.Huawei users are still using youtube,Gmail and so ohers with the help of third party apps despite the ban.
So basically huawei are saying they are google free but still connected to it.Huawei without google cannot survive.In our country no one will buy huawei if they can't use google apps.

Google isn't controlled by a regime, it's part of the regime, and it is distorting history, and the information we receive.
Wow - so many merits for anti-Chinese sentiments.
I don't really care if people are spying on me. What does annoy me is that the big players are constantly messing with my settings, and installing rubbish apps that I don't want, and won't use. I don't want things like Alexa, Cortana, Facebook, Twotter (sic) and all the other trivial nonsense that goes on at the moment. I don't want crappy music superimposed on my surfing either.
It also annoys me when my searches are modified to push products just after I have bought something. Computers used to be tools, but now they are self-driving devices, and we are just passengers in our journeys on the net.

yeah. i have four android based tracfones.
only need one but to be able to do some degree 📜 of security. i need four to keep stuff less synched .
lets say I have the need to use and exchange and they want 2f.
I need a phone to never leave the house that has multiple 2f accounts.
lets say i am mananging an account for a farm i need a second phone that never leaves the house 🏠.
lets say i take a trip i want to use map features etc. thats three.
lastly my wife need a phone thats four.
the 2 f phones stay inside the house and are place in double faraday box 📦.
quite frankly better desktops may come back with very good monitors. a lot of people have seen what they can do on zoom.
covid-19 has a really big wave two and the desktop looks better with mobile looking shitty.
not rooting for covid to grow this summer just pointing it out.
