Quality is some what dependent on requirements,  If the product is  released as per user requirements and, doesn?t have the complications, I would say, it is a quality product.

 

Bug-free :  If the product is reached 80% of the user requirements and, as long as there are no dangerous severity and priority bugs, the product could be considered as bug-free

it is not always possible to fix all the reported bugs before releasing a product. So what we can do is fix all the defects with high sevierity before the release to meet the deadline and then release another version or a patch with all the bugs fixed.

Generally Quality is defined as not only the justification of requirements but also the presence of value in it. Value in this context means that it should be user friendly. User friendly means both bug free and functionally perfect.

Quality has two working definitions:


Producer’s Viewpoint – The quality of the product meets the requirements.


Customer’s Viewpoint – The quality of the product is “fit for use” or meets the customer’s needs.

The answer to this question depends on the vantage point you are taking. 

From a software company's point of view, quality is conformance to requirements and specifications.  From a Quality Assurance point of view, quality is the absence of defects.  However, from a customer's point of view, quality may be a totally different thing altogether.  Here, quality can be said to be the customers' perception of the value of a suppliers' work output.  Ultimately, it is the customer who defines quality.
