Because they have a problem with the simplest thing, choosing good brand name.
Among Android companies, Samsung was the first one with consistent brand strategy: Galaxy S1, S2, ... updated each year.
It doesn't require IQ 160 to grasp this: good name and update each year.
But for some reason HTC, each x months created new brand: Hero, Desire, don't remember, One, and the last one: One X/Mega f... I don't remember even after reading Engadget three times a week.
LG tried to copy Samsung and changed the letter to G. So finally we have G1 and G2. Not bad, they are more consisted than HTC.
Sony has letter Z but still doesn't know how to enumerate updates. The last model is Z1 and the previous was Z or Z Zero? I don't know.
Blackberry also uses letter Z, and their last model is Z10?
At least Google coined good brand name, Nexus. Nokia has Lumia series which are selling quite well.
