Help me decide

I already have classic summer Basket Bag and Square Basket bag.
I really like that Ibiza Slit Pochette. I'm thinking of selling Square and buying this one. Any advice please? Which bag is more functional?

I think it depends how much you typically carry. The square and regular basket bags are more of a beach bag, which can be stuffed full. The Pochette is a small bag, so is more for the bare daily essentials. How do you see yourself using it? I do have this bag though and can recommend the style and quality. When I used it on holiday I might take an extra tote bag for hat, sun cream etc and just use this for my sunglasses, wallet, makeup. It’s a very chic bag though - and a great piece.

The square is very pretty and I wear it to the office during the summer. However, it is very impractical for every day- when I go for a walk in the city, a walk on the beach, on trips... it is hard to pack. The classic Basket is for me exclusively for the beach or pool or when I go on a summer picnic…
I know “the slit pochette” is a small bag, but I find it practical for every day and easy to pack in a suitcase. How many things fit in it?

I tend to very travel light, so maybe not the best person to ask, but there are several YouTube videos reviewing the bag and sharing what fits, such as this one:
