That's not true, either.
While you are correct that most of the reviews are positive, there are plenty of 'ho hum' or negative reviews, as well. For example:

There are others that are somewhat negative and a few more with a 'interesting, but I'm not going to get rid of my current high end phone" attitudes.
Even the favorable reviews cite some potential problems - low sound volume makes it hard to hear the phone sometimes (isn't that the purpose of the phone) and limited, non-upgradeable storage. If you're not going to use memory cards, you really need to offer more than 16 GB of storage as an option.
Surprisingly, the reviews I've seen don't cite lack of software as a big problem. The consensus seems to be that most of the key apps are out there even though the total number of apps is somewhat limited.
It looks like the bottom line is that most reviewers expect it to do well, but not to be a runaway smash hit that restructures the market. Personally, I suspect that it will hurt Android more than iOS, but few reviewers are speculating on that yet.
