So, if you peruse the new sub forum thoroughly, you can see complaints about:

annoying always-on live view shutter mode

shutter noise, clunk upon turning on

shutter open all the time gathering dust

function buttons failing intermittently 

camera freezing without a clue as to why

the thin sensor still not helping with wide lenses in the corners

Sony colors

confusing EVF display implementation 

@setuporg  Some that you forgot -

Black paint is too damn abrasive!

Black paint is too damn slick!

Black paint is too damn black!

Black paint is not damn black enough!!

Black paint feels too light! 

Black paint feels cheap!

But silver chrome is too heavy!

Function buttons failing intermittently is not just a “complaint “, it’s REAL folks, my m11 has been sent back to the service center and I am considering to get a new one or just wait for the m11p. I have a social media group with 20 m11 users, 5 of them have sent their m11 back due to this problem!

I really think this is fakenews, Reid’s review is very clear about it, it’s rather the opposite, the M11 being the most neutral in colors, with a tiny difference with the M10R

Or as they said in late July 1914, peace man!:)

And then Lord Kitchener banned the use of cameras on the Western Front.

Let' s see for what price you can sell your M11 in 50 years and how long it will work.

Good point, but our grandchildren will have made massive amounts with Bit Coin and they will be buying yachts and racehorses rather than Leicas.

IIRC the M8 in 2006 was 4190 Euro and the M9 in 2009 was 4190 Euro... As a comparison, the price of petrol has doubled since then...

I'm trying to figure out the relationship with the price of 'petrol'. Logistics costs may have increased, but there is hardly that much more plastic in an M11 compared to an M8 or M9 😀.

I don't have my M11 yet, but I will report here if there are any issues.

Yes the review is reassuring although it does say the M11 colors are more saturated.  I hope the Leica Look is preserved!

After which he sank off Orkney Islands going to Russia on HMS Hampshire that struck a German mine...

stick to an M9 or the M10R then, like me

I do have and enjoy both, but the siren call of M11 is hard to at least evaluate...  Even though this one really calls for M11-P.  Where P would be much more substantial than for M9-P or M10-P...  Except the wait would be too long.:)

Is it all the function buttons or one particular?  Mine have been fine and work as they should 

fn button on the left is ok, the top fn and back wheel press buttons have malfunction, they might work fine even with ten+ clicks then miss one or two clicks. Situation on my m11 is worse, nearly 4/10 of the clicks on the back wheel are missed.

I've noticed this on occasion, as well as lag. I seriously doubt this is a hardware issue. It feels like problems in software related to mulit-tasking or prioritization. Feels like the camera is prioritizing doing something else at the expense of responding to the UI.
