Hardware diversity badly nedded

[Ahmed Hassan7]

For me WP OS is the best there is and the best there will ever be ... But the really limited phones to chose from is becoming irritating its either a Lumia or a 8X. And then look at android for example in 5 days (MWC) at least 3 rumored devices will be announced which means newer options which is something we badly need in here. To add even more desperation to the mix, new hardware is not expected for at least two upcoming months (build conference) so ya I am getting annoyed from the very little number of devices running WP OS... The OS that I will never leave (I think)

what about ios users ? iPhone/iPod/iPad ?

Nothing new here, this has been the MO for WP since it was released, very few hardware choices. Still seems to be a side hobby for Microsoft.

You keep costs down by building in bulk. More hardware variation means higher prices, unless you have the user base to
support it. Which Microsoft doesn't have.

I think this guy means we need more manufacturers but the problem is the cost of being an OEM.
