Is it correct to say that the hardware of all the eBook readers are manufactured equally well?

Is the difference in build quality (assuming the same generation) only a matter of firmware?
Build quality, in my opinion differs quite significantly.
Housing of Sony readers is aluminum for example. Most others simply are plastic.
But you might call this "quality of material" instead of "build quality".
