How to get device make and model on iOS?

Question

I was wondering if it\'s possible to determine what kind of iPhone (for example) the currentdevice is? I know it\'s possible to get the model through
NSString

I've made the plist file to help you to get the complete name for each device (source code right at the end of my answer)

Based on OhhMee's answer, you can use it like this:

Swift 4.0

static func deviceName() -> String {

        var systemInfo = utsname()
        uname(&systemInfo)

        guard let iOSDeviceModelsPath = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "iOSDeviceModelMapping", ofType: "plist") else { return "" }
        guard let iOSDevices = NSDictionary(contentsOfFile: iOSDeviceModelsPath) else { return "" }

        let machineMirror = Mirror(reflecting: systemInfo.machine)
        let identifier = machineMirror.children.reduce("") { identifier, element in
            guard let value = element.value as? Int8, value != 0 else { return identifier }
            return identifier + String(UnicodeScalar(UInt8(value)))
        }

        return iOSDevices.value(forKey: identifier) as! String
    }

Don't forget to add #import in your Bridging Header.

Objective C

#import 

NSString *machineName()
{
    struct utsname systemInfo;
    uname(&systemInfo);

    NSString *iOSDeviceModelsPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"iOSDeviceModelMapping" ofType:@"plist"];
    NSDictionary *iOSDevices = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfFile:iOSDeviceModelsPath];

    NSString* deviceModel = [NSString stringWithCString:systemInfo.machine
                                               encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

    return [iOSDevices valueForKey:deviceModel];
}
