Enough shit about reddit. Get back to work folk. Tell me a phone with no bloatware at all, or no app pre-installed at all.
Pixel as many have suggested. In addition to being able to take any of the popular ROMs, most of the apps on the stock ROM can be disabled.
For example:
I just got a Pixel 7 Pro, there only thing it came programmed with were the basic Google apps.
Stock Android has so many additional components (assistant for example) compared with GrapheneOS.
Still, compared to the Samsung phones I’ve had in the past, there’s very little bloat. It was literally just like 8 Google apps and that was all.
Yes true, and for some these software is unnecessary baggage and for others absolutely important features.
Fresh lineageos install on any phone.

Google Pixel with GrapheneOS or CalyxOS.
I’m not giving Google any money.
Sony Xperia 1 and 5 series phones. They actually do have some bloatware but it’s not egregious all.
Pixel 6 w GrapheneOS is what I use, its lovely
Snag any Pixel that’s affordable to you and slap GrapheneOS (or Lineage, whichever) and you’re gold.

Some of the Nokia lineup and many of the xiaomi phones are able to install custom roms very easily
Any Motorola phone with unlockable bootloader (most if not all), with official LineageOS support. You get a very very basic set of base apps meant for functions like the camera, calculator, music, gallery, files; apps that effrctively are used by other apps for core functions.
PostmarketOS on a Pinephone, because everything after Android KitKat is bloat
