Market research has shown that the newest model of E-Phone gained widespread popularity due to technical superiority but through seamless and intuitive design.

A.
B. widespread popularity not only due to technical superiority but also through seamless
C. did not gain widespread popularity due to technical superiority but through seamless
D. did not gain widespread popularity in consideration of technical superiority but rather due to seamless
E. gaining widespread popularity not due to technical superiority but also through seamless

OA is A .

Couls someone explain two thigns: Why OA is corect ? And is this question good representative of GMAT question ?

OA is A and it is correct. However, if I am not wrong then you did not post this question correctly.

I have posted the same question few days back and asked few questions. Below is the link to that thread

I dont think its a good question.
Options A and B both are correct grammatically.
Options A and B, though they have contrasting meaning, logically both of the meanings make sense.

Can you please get it confirmed from a Grockit Expert? Thanks.
