The Oppo Find X7 series is getting 5.5G support, the first in the industry

Has anyone here been in a situation where they thought "man, 4g sure is slow. Hope they roll out 5g soon"? I guess they need a feature to put on the box, otherwise people might think their current phone is good enough.

5.5G, does that mean it has AI built in to the mind control magnetism or whatever? 🤡🤣

The actually relevant bit:

Anyway, 5G-Advanced is a marketing name for 3GPP Release 18. This includes “non-terrestrial networks”, i.e. using satellites as network cells

First I've heard of 5.5G, is this just a thing in China or is it related to the satellite connectivity stories we've seen popping up from a few other manufacturers this year?
