From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

what is your goal? My immediate thought was the Steam Deck but looking at the examples you're looking for something else.

A minipc or phone like handheld that can be used for Linux. Not for gaming. More like a full Linux phone with control.

Not one of the ones you listed has a cellular module.

not anywhere in my sentence did I say I wanted it… ;)

I think one of those is sim capable though actually! But regardless, I meant what I said minipc or phone like, not cellular capable
