Not sure if it is like that because I'm in Korea, but on my Samsung S9 Samsung is injecting ads for their new S24 in my notifications. I've had the phone for 5 years and this is the first time I see ads in my phone notifications, unbelievable.

If you want something cheaper with a great display and great performance and can stomach the lack of expandable storage, and some bloatware, go with the OnePlus 12. Once you remove it, the phone will absolutely fly.
If you are okay with a no expandable storage and worse screen (still a bright OLED) and want less bloatware and/or are on a tighter budget, go with the Motorola Edge+ (2023). It still has 512GB internal and costs just $600.
As for the cloud storage problem, I suggest you have some kind of external drives, or even a high capacity laptop or desktop. You can transfer files with a cable, and storage is quite cheap, although the price (at least for SSDs) is climbing up and will probably continue to do so this year. Currently, I have 3TB of SSDs in my laptop and a 4TB external drive for my backups, while important backups are also stored in the cloud, which take up under 100GB total.
Expandable storage is #1, great screen would just barely edge out excessive bloatware for #2.
I guess I'm just bitching at this point because I know the sony is the only one that will fit what I want. Motorola is so close to filling the space that LG left behind, it's unfortunate they haven't realized they are just two features short of being unique at their price point. They don't have the ecosystem, aren't trying to create one, so why not pack in the features everyone else ignores?
I just really wish the EU could somehow create an argument to require memory card slots. I've been trying my best to come up with one myself, just to put it out there in the world.
I say vote with your wallet and get the Sony if you don't like my other suggestions. Your choice as a consumer will show that people still care about expandable storage.
