Motorola Leaks 3G Updates To Investors

It's debatable whether Motorola makes generally superior or inferior products, and as with all consumer electronics, there will be huge batches of defective or quasi defective product. No cell phone manufacturer is immune to this, and there's really no way to definitively say which brands are more prone to this. True, reps for the various companies notice trends, but actual numbers of what phones are more consistently defective than others, there's no way to know.

However, what can be easily measured is the cost/features/value of a phone compared to others. At this, Motorola is clearly a loser - the phones they sell are barely on par with other manufacturers, and as is evidenced above, they're hardly worth the money that is demanded for them. And most folks on here would agree that they're getting close to creatively bankrupt when it comes to phone innovation.

All this is indicative of them taking a serious dive in market share & profit.
