I know I'm gonna get flamed for saying this but the truth hurts... 
I was a Nokia user changed Sony Ericsson since the 630, but I have to say if the k750 successor is NOT symbian and is buggy I will definitley go back to Nokia.
Firmware is supposed to enhance your product and give you more features, not remove bugs,
when a phone is launched it should be bug free, I can understand branded phones but when an unbranded phone is full of bugs then you know something is wrong, as for the quick launch why did they advertise it a year earlier if they don't want to be pressured into launching it... as well as these are billion dollar companies we're talking here they should be able to with the thousands of workers and reasearchers they have to bring out a bug free phone.
I would gladly pay an extra 100-200$ for a symbian bug free k750.

when i bought my nokia 6670 when it was just released, I never had a single crash or freeze. Even now (with no upgrade in firmware), it never crash/freeze eventhough I have installed hundreds of software (and I'm not talking about harmless java programs). And if you dont know, 6670 is a smartphone and the firmware (i.e. O/S) is much more complex and advanced than the K750i.
so stop trying to defend SE for K750 blunder by diverting attention (a.k.a "other people do it so it is OK for SE to do it") |

Despite what Nokias unofficial PR agent above says.. It's true that all manufacturers have a hell of a time with firmware. Why are SE's more commonly buggy? Because this is an SE forum. Goto any specialised forum and each will appear about as trusty as the Exxon valdeze carrying oil any great distance of more than a meter or two.
You only have to look at the K750i threads to see that some poeple have no issues at all while others do.

Let me add light to this discssion
i brought my K750i in May on the 28th ya thats just days after it realised i got the first batch
and i never had a single freeze in the phone
the thing is solid oh the soft keys may make a little sound when pressed hard thats about it 
and not a single scratch on the glass
i guess i am lucky
why dont we get some numbers as to how many phones are buggy at both SE and nokia's end
and then settle this issue once and for all
SE K750i rules |

I bought mine on May 23 and didn't have any problem at all either, so I agree with korbindallis

Samsung released 50 models. Is the nokia the house of sunset? Are the Asia the winner of the wireless?

my k750 bought on 02 on the week of release is perfect as well, no freeze ups or major bugs found.

@Gigs: The point here is that there are more complaints than usual for K750i, on this forum at least. This does mean something. Also the fact that some operator are no longer selling this phone for a while is also proof that something's wrong. Manufacturers are under constant pressure to deliver more phones with more functionality and have a harder time fighting bugs before launch. However, it is a completely wrong attitude to use this as an excuse. As a customer, one expects a bug-free phone. |

@Gigs
yes. we all know that every manufacturers has it fair share of firmware bugs but for a non-smartphone like K750 to freeze up while phone is idle is really very bad indeed. (if it freezes on you while u r playing with it then it is not as bad)
This is a quality problem SE has to address it. this issue will not go away by bashing other phone makers.
you can go to nokia boards and count how many people are complaining that a specific nokia model froze up while the phone is not being used or left idle.
i will be pretty pissed off if i bought a phone and i kept worrying that it will hang/froze while in my pocket. it may not have frozen on you yet but you know it can happen because other people already encounter the problem. The phone is like broken at the time u bought it and u can't use it with confident until the next firmware update.
What a sorry state.
