Answer 1

It looks like either iPhone5,1 or iPhone5,2 depending on the model of iPhone 5.

From @marcoarment, who is a well known iOS Developer:

iPhone5,1: model A1428, AT&T/Canada

iPhone5,2: model A1429, all others

A1429 may have two modes, but I don’t see any iPhone5,3 records.

This method covers all devices in market:

- (NSString *) platform{
int mib[2];
size_t len;
char *machine;

mib[0] = CTL_HW;
mib[1] = HW_MACHINE;
sysctl(mib, 2, NULL, &len, NULL, 0);
machine = malloc(len);
sysctl(mib, 2, machine, &len, NULL, 0);

NSString *platform = [NSString stringWithCString:machine encoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding];
free(machine);
return platform; }

- (NSString *) platformString{
NSString *platform = [self platform];

I created a library for detecting the device at runtime.

It's called SDVersion.

Thought some may found it useful.
