I think that impression might be quite subjective – my impression is the exact opposite. I don't have any numbers either, but most people I know, both Android users and iOS users, are quite happy with their devices. They do of course have minor issues, but that will almost always be the case with something targeting such a broad audience. I am not sure how I could be more happy with my device. Right now it mostly does what I want it to do, the battery lasts a couple of days, and it rarely bugs out. edited: changed "really" to "more" in the second paragraph.

How about a smaller (but not thinner) phone that is strong enough to act as a laptop when hooked up to monitor/keyboard/mouse? That would be cool. Give me a 3GHz i7 quadcore with 500gb ssd that I can also put in my pocket and have the battery last 2 days. Always having 2 or 3 expensive computers on my person seems dumb.

I am not sure how I could be more happy with my device. Depends what you think the best possible device is. My phone meets my expectations for a smartphone. If you think phones will replace PCs for everyday office work, I'd say it falls quite a way short.

"battery lasts a couple of days..." I think we're conditioned to have a low bar. I want something that lasts a long as that $20 feature phone that I can pickup near the checkout line at Fry's. I want it to be $20. I want to be able to drop it repeatedly. I read somewhere that given Apple's design esthetic, the iPhone will evolve to a slab of glass. It would look like a piece of art. Sounds right. Something with no holes. You can submerge in water. Screen would be all around, front, back, sides.
