Hey, Just a quick personal post from my side. I used the Meizu MX4 with touch as my main phone for a long time and I really didn't think it was bad; I actually consider it a really decent phone. I was always a bit puzzled when I saw people mentioning how unreliable Ubuntu Touch was in some cases in comparison to others. Sure, it wasn't perfect, but my Android phone had very similar issues. The Sony Xperia Z I used before was sluggish, applications sometimes hanged, had issues getting GPS location and data was sometimes unreliable - same things, some maybe just happening a little bit less frequently. But for me I never really felt this huge gap some people were mentioning, but maybe I'm not really a very demanding user. Even the lack of applications didn't really bother me, as I had everything I used on an Android phone (but I must confess that I don't really use too many of those).
Maybe when someone was part of the initiative creating a phone operating system you tend to get more tolerant of issues, since you know what a big and complicated venture this is. I'll never know for sure.
