I'm no fan of foldable phones, but it's impressive that Huawei remains strong in the smartphone market, despite the restrictions imposed on them.
My wife still uses her 10 year old Huawei P7! And she dreads having to buy a new one, because of the enshittification of Android.
She wants the Nokia G42 for repairability, but you can't friggin remove the stupid google search on your home screen! What an idiotic design decision by Nokia!?!?

Maybe you can dip your toes into using lineage os or graphene os?

I used AOSP for years to minimize my Google exposure, but it became too cumbersome, and I stopped when I accidentally bricked a phone modifying the boot loader.
