You have to take into account that there is going to be a natural percentage failure rate that doesn't necessarilly indicate a problem with the phone in general.

Yes, if only 10% of the V710 owning population were on this and other forums, then there might be a problem.

My friends phone is gone. he was playing with get it now and the phone died. it won't turn back on even with car charger plugged in. it just sits there and flickers on for like .5 sec then off for a while. Its got to be broke 😢 . Any other let us know. and if any one has any ideas to bring it back to life let me know. He has already taken out the battery and put it back in to no avail. Thanks for any help
