Here?s one feature we knew was coming for Windows Phone 8.1, but wasn?t quite ready a few weeks ago: device enumeration in reviews.
Yup, numerous reports have come in confirming that under app and game reviews, individual posts will not only show the user?s name (if registered) but their exact Windows Phone make and model used for the review. That?s important for context when reading a analysis by someone. For instance, if customer rates a game?s performance as ?excellent with smooth graphics? it makes a difference if they?re on a Lumia 520 versus a Lumia 1520. Not only that, if an app developer sees negative reviews only from HTC 8X users, they may very well conclude there is something going on with their app that needs fixing.
