Everyone in this thread is talking about how this is just a user space on Linux without RTFA. It uses the FreeRTOS kernel, which isn’t Linux last time I checked.

Also, it specifies LTE in the specs. I think the GSM tethering is a mistype or mistranslation; I don’t see why they wouldn’t allow it to tether the LTE data.

Could you please point me to the source of "GSM tethering"? We'll try to fix this asap. Thank you!

Under “Network”, “Pure as data modem”, Second Paragraph, Second Sentence:

“We decided to enable tethering via USB C cable so that Pure can be used as an external GSM modem.”

This implies a 3G connection, so I checked the specs. This phone is pretty close to exactly what I want, so I’m considering buying it for myself and my spouse.

Seriously considering purchasing a pair (this coming from someone who imported and ran two Nokia N9s for several years; I still miss that phone!); hope it’s everything it seems to be!
