I use an ARM laptop for travel. I've had a lot of problems with running Python code. Mostly data-science related. A lot of recompilation is required, which is a hassle. Also, sometimes you'll be constrained in what libraries you can use, because some of them simply don't work on ARM, due to ARM specific bugs. NUMBA is one that caused a lot of headache, but I think they got it fixed since.

Asus C201P. ~180 euros. Very durable, battery lasts for 10 hours easy, more if only programming. It's preinstalled with ChromeOS. Installing Linux took some tinkering; there are some blog posts around that were very helpful.

You might also look at the Pinebook, 11" for $99. I'm considering one also.

I've looked at the Pinebook but 6 hour battery life isn't enough for me.
