Models, being mass-produced and all tend towards seeing more kinds of issues, whether design etc. It's all perspective. Here are some, to varying degrees that I remember off the top of my head...
iPhone 4 - Antenna Death Grip
iPhone 5 had a battery replacement program early on
Palm Pre - Slider assembly
HTC One (I forget which) - Purple tinted photos?
Nexus 5X, similar era LG phones - bootlooping
Lumia 535 - touchscreen
HP TouchPad (not a phone) - case corner cracks, difficulty reviving after a dead battery
The Galaxy Note 7 had two sizable battery defects and we know what happened there.
BlackBerry Priv's tended to have heat issues.
Nexus 5 had some GPS quirks, whether software or the back cover.
Look hard enough and you will find. Beware the availability heuristic!
That was the HTC One (M8) and it had chroma issues with its UltraPixel camera.
And don't forget the red screen tints with the Galaxy S8 and the broken Bixby button.
