We the users are getting more technically demanding than what the manufacturers can supply. As such, almost everybody who buys a phone is reporting a bug.

Exactly. All OEM's need to lift their game.
But on the other hand, phones are much more reliable than computers for example. Even mac's. Ever noticed that Apple release DAILY automatic updates for their operating system? Some of these updates do cause bugs that didn't exist before the update. Likewise with windows.
The more complex phones get, the more like computers they become. Nokia will eventually be forced to offer an update services also. currently when your nokia phone needs a firmware update (and IT DOES happen, despite what some might say) you need to take it to the service centre and leave it there and have no phone for days or weeks.
How screwed up is that?

@max_wedge, you have a very valid point and i have to agree with you. i guess we just have to understand that there cannot be a flawless product. never has been, never will be. nothing is perfect, simple as that.

And bugs and faults are necessary too because they push us to strive towards a better product. If at all there were none at all, it would lead to complacency on our part. These bugs and faults cause us to think, become technologically better.....so they do play some role afterall.

@BlueQuill, gotta agree with that too. in fact, what they don't say is that if these companies come out with THE perfect product, who's gonna buy whatever they're gonna come up with after that? and that, i dare say, is why we don't get any perfect products. =)

I beg to disagree. Bugs are okay for driving the phone manufacturer's R&D/technical development (or whatever) team. That's what they are paid to do.
And that's the reason why the phones should be bug-free BEFORE they hit the market.

No phone is perfect. Yet not all phones are buggy. You are wrong on that one.
Mamba is right. Some of those R&D guys ought to be fired. If I were the boss, they certainly would be fired!
