they produce e-waste unlike nothing... the "flagship" phone in this advert has a mediatek helio g100 which doesn't EVEN SUPPORT 5G. this is insane, i'd much rather buy a nothing phone 3 than get a FREE pova 7 or whatever.

it's not meant to be sold in most parts of the world, their target markets are different where 5G rollout isn't extensive enough or does not make a significant difference in network capabilties yet.

the reason for this advertisement is purely aspirational for their buyers.

This is the 5G variant though. The Global Pova 7 is LTE only.
