I would go one step further than ratings but add mandatory lifetime ratings from the date of purchase with manufacturer guarantee attached. This should cover at least battery/charger, software updates (in particular security updates) and operation of necessary could infrastructure.
I have burned too many times by manufacturers not taking security updates seriously (Motorola phones for instance). If a manufacturer wants not to fix an issue it should be an automatic reason to get a full refund.
