British and Schuko are both relatively huge. Even the 2-prong europlug that small electronics use, that also can be installed in a Schuko outlet, often make the European version of things like usb-c chargers significantly larger than the US version. I live in Europe but travel a lot. For all small electronics I try to get a Japanese or US version, and then use a small adapter. For travel, a US usb-c charger plus EU adapter is smaller than an EU usb-c charger plus US adapter. British-style outlets can also be coaxed to take a europlug, not that I would advise anyone to do that.
