iOS - How to get device make and model?

EITHER try this library: http://github.com/erica/uidevice-extension/ (by Erica Sadun).

(Sample Code):
[[UIDevice currentDevice] platformType]   // ex: UIDevice4GiPhone
[[UIDevice currentDevice] platformString] // ex: @"iPhone 4G"

OR You can use this method:

You can get the device model number using uname from sys/utsname.h. For example:

#import <sys/utsname.h> // import it in your header or implementation file.
NSString* deviceName()
{
    struct utsname systemInfo;
    uname(&systemInfo);
    return [NSString stringWithCString:systemInfo.machine
                              encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
}
