Purism Phone European band G4/LTE support?

[Schuma]

Hello mates, will the Purism phone support the common bands (G4/LTE) which are used in Europe?
Such as:

2G bands

GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

3G bands

HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100

4G bands

LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 13(700), 17(700), 20(800)

Without those Bands it would be hard for me to put in 599$.

Thanks for your information in advance.

Best regards

I don’t work for Purism, so I can’t confirm for sure precisely which frequencies it supports, but the campaign page makes the following claim:

WHAT COUNTRIES AND MOBILE NETWORKS WILL SUPPORT THE LIBREM 5 PHONE?
The Librem 5 is an open network phone, not locked to any particular network. It will work in all countries that provide 2G/3G/4G, GSM, UMTS, or LTE-based network services.

Personally, I made the assumption that this meant it will support all possible bands, because not all networks use all bands. It would be nice to see confirmation of the supported bands.

Librem 5 still GSM?

Well, I would not go as far as to say “all bands” but we want to support as many as possible, at least concerning the actual frequency bands. We can not say the same for proprietary provider extensions which especially some operators in the USA require. Cheers nicole

Hi, frankly, we can not yet say for sure since this depends on the final hardware choices. We have different possible candidates for the mobile modem and need to negotiate their requirement with the manufacturers now. We will soon have to plan a big visiting tour to different manufacturers and negotiate their capabilities, requirement and sources with what we have on our wish list. We also have to keep power and space constraints in mind. The different modems we have have different capabilities…
