I recently bought a super-folk size Tanglewood that I'm enjoying playing and it is quite "chuckable". It's got quite a lim neck and nice light action. They do a travel size one, which might be worth looking at. The Yamaha Guitalele has also been recommended here before.

A few weeks into lockdown i dug out a little soprano ukele my wife gave me about 10 years ago and have enjoyed playing it, signed up for an app that has some lessons and have enjoyed progressing through that, but its very small and although i'm a shortarse i find lots of chords very cramped so i've been thinking about upgrading to a concert uke and buying something a bit more refined, but while on guitar websites thought about potentially just changing course and learning to play the guitar instead (i realise 6 strings is a lot more complex and sure there's a bunch of other stuff ive not even considered yet) but i'm not sure which direction to head in and looking for some advice!
in my head a smaller acoustic guitar will be easier to manage, I dont want to spend a fortune but i dont want to buy something that im going to want to replace again in 6 months time, and it will sit on display in my home office so i need to like the way it looks too.
so considering the following options:
Fender Malibu Player (has electric options built in so has plenty of room to grow right at the top of what i could conceivably spend and worry a lot of the budget is going on the electric bit that i may never use)

Fender Sonoran Mini (worry a mini will be comedy small and limiting really soon)
