I don't think you could really approach the kind of coverage automatic crash telemetry can give with a bunch of test devices. You will absolutely find a non-zero number of issues with the test devices, but it's not really the same.
Without substantially increasing the cost and work to maintain the test pool, you'll be testing exactly one combination of OS version/patch level/settings, one internet connection medium/carrier, one set of browser config options, etc for each device in the pool.
The investigation into any fault isolated to a single device in the test pool has to start with suspicion of the health of the specific device. The test S20 crashing doesn't tell you that every S20 will crash in the same way, it could be an isolated local fault. Yes you can throw more devices but that's further increasing the cost and effort of maintaining the test pool.
