I have a 10" Chuwi Minibook X. It's basically my go to when I go to my kids activities. For me, it's a better alternative than a phone or my tablet. It's small when folded up and weighs very little. The luggability is surprisingly better than my Framework 13. Plus, I have a real keyboard instead of a touchscreen that is surprisingly much better than I expected . That's handy for when I do want to do something more productive. And since it only cost me about $300 or so, I'm much less worried about it getting damaged.

I wouldn't just carry it around with me randomly in public. But, I could if I wanted to. It's a shame there are so few options like it. One of my biggest factors I was looking for was weight and overall footprint.
