Compared to what? The N900? Or...the N97? (not isolated cases)

So far the phone's hardware has had a pretty solid track record, no broken USB ports, no destructive lens covers, few screen issues...especially when compared to many late Nokia symbian-era phones, a couple I have noted. Now the phone does have a much smaller install-base so HW issues will be rarer but proportionately the engineers have done a pretty splendid job, especially for the ex-Nokians.

Now the specs and design? Yes, they could have done better, the screen and the camera being a particular low point. But this is still their first phone, and just like the HTC Wallaby, HTC Dream and the original iPhone, there will always be a few things the manufacturer hasn't quite perfected yet, especially with relation to new software. Give Sailfish, and Jolla, some time and I think you'll have a smooth ride.

And to those who are having software issues, what have you been doing in Developer Mode?
