Strange that some manufacturers are focusing more on the AC1900 class Routers
 
Because they actually work...

And because the majority of customers aren't interested in spending 200$+ on something just meant to share their Internet connection and browse Facebook on their phone.

Personally, if I were to go out and buy a router for myself right now, it would be an Asus RT-AC68U. I don't have anything that needs 4x4, a pair of 5 GHz radios, a 1.4 GHz CPU, or more than 4 ports (I have an 8 ports managed switch for my LAN).
 
Yes u r right but wath i mean its if they can do a AC1900 Router with greater range or wath is needed for greater range faster CPU?

Most of the range limitations are not the routers, esp. these days with the AC1900 class - it's the clients is where the shortfall is...

Range is mostly limited by the laws of physics these days, as power output is limited by regional regulations. There is very little that can be gained, beyond improving SNRs a bit which can only marginally help.
