They do seem to understand ergonomics and user experience better than most.

My Sony Xperia has all its buttons on one side. Seems awfully unorthodox, as almost all the other brands put them on both sides.

Until of course you start using the phone with one hand or lay it on its side to watch a movie.

I'm not sure why but the Japanese seem to put a great emphasis on detail. If I ever find out why that is, I'll let you know ;)
