That sounds right.
In this case I would like them to put this people to work on my pet annoyances: screen turning on while on my pocket and natively recording my conversations.
Screen shouldn't turn on under any circumstance, unless I press the physical button. There's no way to configure this and there are many cases of this behaviour: incoming call, low battery...
There is no way to properly record every conversation. There are apps, but they don't really work. Some of them with "good critics" demand to host the audio in their servers. Are people crazy?
I've recently bought one android phone for my mother. Her experience has been sad and painful (in her words). Now it seems her next phone will need just another painful period.
It's not just geeks, UI is difficult and changing it is no good.
