Android Quirks
--------------
- Gets the [product name](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build.html#PRODUCT) instead of the [model name](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build.html#MODEL), which is often the production code name. For example, the Nexus One returns `Passion`, and Motorola Droid returns `voles`.
Windows Phone 7 and 8 Quirks
-------------
- Returns the device model specified by the manufacturer. For example, the Samsung Focus returns `SGH-i917`.
Tizen Quirks
-----------
- Returns the device model assigned by the vendor, for example, `TIZEN`
