When I saw 'Slimbook' I wished for a small pocketable Linux netbook even though I knew Ryzen 4000's thermal profile wouldn't suit such a design.

I would really like AMD to release CPUs which can compete with intel's core M3, which can be used in SBCs or pocketable netbooks like these[1][2]. I feel there is a need gap in this space for a reputed manufacturer or a trusted enthusiast brand to get in.

Why would you want a pocketable Linux pc? one may ask; I'm tired of this always tracking smartphone cellular-apps cluster-X mess. My phone-call usage lifestyle is anyways on-demand(little to no incoming calls), so why not just use a USB GSM module on a pocket Linux pc when needed.

P.S. I'm aware of upcoming pure Linux smartphones, some with cellular-kill switch, I'm a vocal support of these platforms, but it's not available in my country and as I understand they are not ready for a daily driver.

That form factor is interesting, I had seen another like this before from somebody who had been travelling. Also interesting is that there seems to be demand for it in some countries and not others.
