If I wish to purchase an Android phone with a 3" screen I can. Same for a device with a 4.5" screen. Hardware keyboard? Fast processor and lots of RAM? Cheap device with lousy screen, slower processor and less RAM? Samsung, LG, Motorola, HTC or something else? All of these options are available for me as customer, and we're just talking hardware here. If I want Touchwiz, HTC Sense or even Motoblur, I also have those options.

So, of course my "seamless experience" will be different depending on the device I choose to buy, but how is that different from any other gadget? The vary wildly in cost and specs, and any informed buyer should know that the device that costs 4x less will probably not be as smooth.
