10" no longer seems to exist: Dells/Asus/Lenovo seem to start at 12.5 / 
13 inch. 11.6" seems to be Chromebooks.

Secondhand seems to be the only way you'll find something. The Lenovo X131
I have next to me lasted for several years until the screen hinge gave out.

Small laptops are at a premium if you can find them - even Chromebooks are
now silly prices.

The Pinebooks are seriously low-priced but limited.- right size but no 
touchscreen but priced so that if you were to lose one you wouldn't be too sad:
Pinebook / Pinebook Pro?

All the best
