As others have pointed out, 8" is probably a bit too small, and you'll have to make a painful tradeoff between performance vs. battery life as well. I'd go with something in the 10-11" range. There are plenty of tablets that you can get keyboard covers for, but those are IMO poor choices due to lack of a real OS supporting real apps (though they can be great as "terminals" for real systems elsewhere).
The two I'd consider would be the Microsoft Surface Go or the Asus Chromebook Flip C101. One is Intel (but Windows). The other is real Linux underneath (but ARM). Both are pretty cheap and seem to do well on most measures considering their size.
