At 10" and 12"? More like twohandheld.
I had Acer W4-821 and I think this (along with the Dell counterpart) was the last 8" on the market, at least available in the retail. It was compact enough to go into a jacket pocket and had a full blown OS, I even run CentOS virtual machine on it for testing small things while on the go.
Today the only option for less than 10" are Android tablets and they are far from a PC.

- walterbell 10mo agoComparable to WSL2, including virtualized graphics, available as foldable Pixel handheld with optional external peripherals and standard Debian packages, i.e. supports all three of: phone, handheld and desktop use cases.

Yeah, outside of the odd offering from GPD or their knock-off crews every now and then, that segment only exist in the industry-PC market ("ruggedized"). Everything else is indeed ToyOS land. Or indie hopefuls, most of which either don't make it to market or are not powerful enough.
