Samsung Had The Highest Failure Rate Among Android Phones in Q1 2018
Jul. 13, 2018The data compiled by Blancco in its report reveals thatSamsung is at the top of the list of failures among Android makers, with a failure rate of a whopping 27.4 percent. It is followed by Chinese giant Xiaomi, which didn’t see such high rates but still clocked in a morbidly high 14.2 percent, followed by Motorola at 9.6 percent.
Blancco’s report further reveals thatSamsung is a ‘known’ resident of the failure list. The Galaxy S7 was ranked as the worst performing Android phone with the highest failure rate back in Q1’17 but that number has jumped significantly due to performance issues. It further adds that,
Android makers had issues with the overall performance of handsets, alongside camera, microphone, and battery charging woes.
Note: If you’re wondering about how Blancco reached these conclusions, well, it is by the compilation of iOS and Android device data handed over from the carriers and retailers for “testing and erasure.”
As per the latest report, the iPhones were plagued with a mix of problems such as sudden touchscreen failure, grey lines on the display, and performance limitation placed by Apple on older iPhones (which angered the usersandcaused a ruckusearlier last year). Several iOS users also reported issues with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi connectivity, and the removal of the headphone jack was also on the feedback list.
