Apple’s iPhone tops smartphone reliability ratings by wide margin

“If you are phone-shopping and wonder about the reliability of various brands, you are in luck. FixYa, a volunteer technical assistance Web site, has analyzed more than 720,000 support requests to come up with complaint-per-phone ratios, which the company said represent reliability,” Roy Furchgott reports for The New York Times.

Third was Nokia, followed by Motorola.”
