I agree with the 'amateurish'. There simply is no logic that goes:
1. I don't like the colors, so the device is ugly.
2. Tech support is bad, so the product is buggy.
3. Getting a replacement takes days, so the product is slow.
All of them are valid things to mention, but not under those headers. #2 and #3 could go under a separate heading "support is poor", #1 should be a personal note that would gain more power if the review mentioned that 8 out of 10 people agreed with that (while mentioning their age group, gender, etc). As it is it is just anecdotal, just like the famous 'iPod ... Lame' remark was.
