I wasn't able to find good information on frequency support, only a mention that it supports Verizon.

Your best bet would be contacting their live chat, asking them what category modem it has equipped, and supported bands. Unrelated but I have a dell 5400 Chromebook that works with both visible and mint mobile.

No it doesn't run Android. It uses an ARM processor.

It runs the ARM version of Windows. Runs really smooth, but has limited app support, so don't be disappointed when your favorite apps aren't available in ARM versions.

Those Snapdragon 8cx devices can be upgraded to Windows 11 with Android 13 emulation.

The situation is like Chrome OS. Even if they will stay on W11, they might actually get longer support than real Android tablets.

Windows on Arm is even worse than Chromebook/Android on Arm. Unless you can run Linux on this thing (which you probably won't), you'll pretty much be stuck on the web browser.

This is the truth.
I tried a surface pro X. Beautiful hardware! But had to return it because my old cheap $250 laptop runs Windows better.
Windows in ARM is trash, and I wish it wasn't.

Cheap laptop with good screen and good battery life. Remote into your desktop for proper usage. Easy win.

Same. I loved ProX size and form factor but win32 emulation sucked and even chrome browsing which is what I was doing the most on it was too laggy.

The upside is the include LTE modem but the lag was just too annoying. Now I am using a dell 7440 ultralight with 5G. So much better but expensive

I have a previous gen Samsung arm laptop. They have great battery life. I havent noticed any limitations with the apps as they can emulate x86 and x64 but I'm also not running anything gpu heavy like photoshop or games.

I like buying them around $200 because that's where i think they have value.

It's X55 modem. Is it locked to Verizon?

Poor app support. It is a nice try but failed attempt that hit the market 2 years ago for around $1500 but preforms poorly.

Bingo. I have the x13s and that's exactly what I use it for. 10 hours remote access!
