enquiry chemical group SquareTrade recently loose the results of a massive cellphone study . They chase after 15,000 single handsets over their first year of manipulation , and they found some big variant in dependableness . The iPhone malfunction rate sat at a easy 5.6 % . The Blackberry ( in its various embodiment ) jumped to 11.9 % . But it ’s all better than the Palm Treo , which malfunctioned 16.2 % of the metre within the first year .
To be true , none of these numbers are particularly right , and I have a tone that there may be a confounding iPhone White Glove Effect — I keep that speech sound ’s methamphetamine screen in mind every metre I put it in the pocket opposite my key . ( Ironically , iPhone users were found 3 % more potential to accidentally damage their phones than their Blackberry / Palm counterparts . ) When projected to two twelvemonth , the iPhone ’s failure rate jumps to 11 % while Blackberries level to 14 % and Treos touch a shuddery 21 % . I judge it ’s a good affair we have those ridiculously bind declaration to bail us out after all . [ SquareTradeviaCNET ]
