I use a T100HA for exactly these reasons, but it's got a detachable screen. Older models had extra batteries and HDDs in the keyboard section, which is a great addition imho.
I'm quite happy with a similar Asus model. I have a rather odd combination of needs: Touch screen, occasional keyboard use, and ability to run Jupyter/Python. So far this can only be done with a Windows tablet. Websites describing the installation of Linux on Bay Trail tablets all end in despair.
I'd be interested in a Chrome tablet if it would install Linux with touch screen support and let me run Jupyter/Python on it.
