Consumer Reports also didn't use actual return/replacement rates with Surface devices, and included in their breakage rate things that are easily attributable to a Windows Update.
- cncrnd 8y agoIt's still a negative indicator of reliability. I'm sure the breakage rate for other devices also includes software related issues, and I would expect less windows update issues on a Microsoft device than a third party manufacturer device. The difference in hardware reliability might even be greater than it appears accounting for the possible software compatibility advantage.
