    Not to mention the E-waste and easily preventable deaths caused by not being able to dial emergency services. This is gross negligence at best and mass murder at worst.

        As I understand it, 4G and 5G standards only have VoLTE to make phone calls, and VoLTE is not truly standardised.

        So, without 2G and/or 3G, you can’t be certain any phone can make an emergency call. Even phones that are brand new 4G and 5G only phones.
