"When our players defend PH glory, they’ll do it with POVA’s 120FPS precision." ~Jeff Victoriano, SIBOL Team Manager
Over 5,000 Filipino gamers were immersed in interactive zones where they experienced first-hand the device's industry-leading 120FPS gameplay and futuristic light-strip design during TECNO Philippines' August 9–10 "POVA Gaming Fiesta," which turned SM Fairview into a gamer's paradise and drew record crowds for the explosive launch of the POVA 7 Ultra 5G. Setting the scene against a life-size PUBG Mobile battleground, the event solidified TECNO's commitment to transforming local mobile gaming culture.
Philippines’ First Triple-crown Esports Phone Redefines Competitive Edge
By achieving an unparalleled trifecta of esport endorsements, the POVA 7 Ultra 5G immediately addressed the expectations of Filipino gamers for dependability at tournament level. The PMCL Commissioner's live demonstration at the event confirmed that the recently introduced Official Device for PUBG Mobile Challenger Leagues SEA (PMCL) 2025, which ensures frame rate consistency during high-stakes professional matches, is a crucial advantage. Concurrently, TECNO declared a long-term partnership as the Philippine National Esports Team's (SIBOL) Exclusive Gaming Partner, appointing the POVA 7 Ultra 5G as the SIBOL athletes' official gaming phone at the SEA Games and Global Esports Championships.
Dito Partnership Eradicates Gaming Data Barriers
In a game-changing move for cost-conscious Filipino gamers, TECNO partnered with DITO, the country’s fastest-growing mobile network, to launch the industry-first "TECNO x DITO x PUBG Mobile Prepaid Gaming SIM." in the event. DITO’s brand ambassadors PPOP sensation ALAMAT brought down the house with a surprise performance, announcing the customised SIM releasing.
By forming the "Perfect Gaming Squad," DITO Mobile, TECNO, and PUBG Mobile are providing Filipino mobile players with a competitive advantage. The package includes a DITO Prepaid Gaming SIM and the TECNO POVA 7 Ultra 5G, the official PUBG Mobile smartphone. Opensignal has identified DITO as the fastest network in the Philippines, guaranteeing a better gaming experience with less lag and quick loading times. Unlimited access to PUBG Mobile is also granted to subscribers who purchase the unique DITO Prepaid Gaming SIM, provided that they are also enrolled in specific DITO Level Up promotions. This strong partnership offers unparalleled performance and a high-end gaming experience at a cost-effective pricing.
POVA Chief Gaming Officer Myrtle Sarrosa Bridges Gaming-Cosplay Divide
By appointing multihyphenate icon Myrtle Sarrosa (cosplayer, actor, and gaming queen) as POVA Chief Gaming Officer, TECNO solidified its cultural importance. Her new position will strengthen TECNO's position in the rapidly growing cosplay scene in the Philippines and restore its reputation among die-hard gamers. A visual representation of how the phone combines performance and individual expression, Myrtle's offline appearance features the newest PUBGM skin, Spectral Byte, with light-strip flares on her clothing and weapon. She said, "POVA 7 Ultra 5G isn’t just a tool, it’s your battle jewelry," displaying the designs and light effects of the device that thrilled Gen Z attendees.
