ESP32 Reliaibility

Hi,
I am thinking of adding ESP32 to a product which requires minimal WiFi & BLE operation. Can someone help with the MTBF or FIT or MTTF data of ESP32? I am unable to find it in the docs provided and technical questions section of espressif.com loops back to the downloads page.
Thanks

You're probably better off mailing
sales@espressif.com with these kinds of questions.

Do you mean transient failures or permanent? AFAIK the ESP does not have ECC memory.
It very much depends on what defines a MTBF failure.
Each culture will have their stereotype of a man who might pave their driveway only to find that the driveway subsides and the man is no where to be seen.
I don't think highly about the effectivity of regulation & how that figure is calculated & have worked in some shocking 'design' cultures.
EDIT:
Standards may also be easily be abused. Ta=25C is a starter. What happens at Ta=40C, no one knows.
Volume, user feed back, that is where I would start.
I use my ESP32s very badly. Its also used in the hoby market where I doubt anyone use's ESD protection. That's not to say that if you raise a finger to it it wont cave.
