is a good thing

Moto could use a little work on their phones too.
"Motorola" just sounds good.... powerful... stylish..... familiar....
"Samsung".... Yeah, I don't know where they're going with that one.... Almost as bad as "Lucky Goldstar"..... (just got educated on that one the other day...)

Something sounds wrong about that because LG stands for Life's Good. 😕

It was Lucky Goldstar at first, then it was shortened to LG. They are using the Life's Good tagline for advertising purposes.

I honestly think they've lost their market share due to stodgy design practices...and hip counts for a lot in today's marketplace. I can honestly see them getting bought out by or joining forces with an Asian handset maker...it'll help them expand their presence in new markets.
siemens needs a lot work on their phones, so this will be a good thing for siemens

their design might be nice, but their phones are garbage. they always have problems. i always have to troubleshoot them and exchange them.

I agree. People tend to sensationalize many phones due to large responses. He may have had a large call volume regarding this phone from a major shipment. For all we know, they could have sent over a shipment containing 5000 phones with defective screens, keypads, features etc. It has been known to happen.
I've had very few returns on Siemens phones (almost all of ours are Motorolas), and have also dealt with them directly on a few occasions. Their reps were extremely punctual, knowledgeable and very helpful. I think that overall they are a very good company. Their phones just aren't particularly stylish or cute, and that seems to be what a lot of people want.
Also, I think judging a company based off of returns can be deceiving. Peop...

I recently had a customer who told me that he realized that Siemens was a bad brand because he had some difficulties with his phone and someone he knew also had difficulties with theirs, and in his experience when two people both have problems with a product, that means that it is an inferior product!
