grouped into themes · share of opinionated mentionsThe failure mode
Reliability is unknown — only 5 long-term owners reported back, too few to calculate a rate. Isolated single reports exist for focal uniformity, the built-in streaming player, thermal/shutdown, power/shutdown, imaging/color, and focus/lens issues. No pattern can be confirmed, but none can be ruled out either. The category baseline for serious failures is 12%.
