On-device buttons, optical zoom, native H.264 hardware.

An E-book reader.
Because this is my first e-reader, I can’t judge it against it’s peers. It works well.
It is spectacular hardware-wise. Its software works, but it is sometimes obviously or even critically lacking. It lacking a file browser and respecting directories is bad enough that I can’t really use it for its intended purpose, and almost regret buying it.
I have trust issues with all storage, but flash memory-based storage is particularly unreliable.
TL;DR – Stubby metal drives are a problem.
Note that solid state thumb drives exist; use them.
