UPDATE  You could retrieve the device from buildprop easitly   static String GetDeviceName         Process p      String propvalue           try           p   new ProcessBuilder   system bin getprop    ro semc product name   redirectErrorStream true  start            BufferedReader br   new BufferedReader new InputStreamReader p getInputStream              String line          while   line   br readLine       null                propvalue   line                    p destroy          catch  IOException e            e printStackTrace              return propvalue      But keep in mind  this doesn t work on some devices

On many popular devices the market name of the device is not available  For example  on the Samsung Galaxy S6 the value of Build MODEL could be  quot SM-G920F quot    quot SM-G920I quot   or  quot SM-G920W8 quot   I created a small library that gets the market  consumer friendly  name of a device  It gets the correct name for over 10 000 devices and is constantly updated  If you wish to use my library click the link below  AndroidDeviceNames Library on Github  If you do not want to use the library above  then this is the best solution for getting a consumer friendly device name      Returns the consumer friendly device name    public static String getDeviceName         String manufacturer   Build MANUFACTURER      String model   Build MODEL      if  model startsWith manufacturer             return capitalize model             return capitalize manufacturer     quot   quot    model     private static String capitalize String str        if  TextUtils isEmpty str             return str            char   arr   str toCharArray        boolean capitalizeNext   true      String phrase    quot  quot       for  char c   arr            if  capitalizeNext  amp  amp  Character isLetter c                 phrase    Character toUpperCase c               capitalizeNext   false              continue            else if  Character isWhitespace c                 capitalizeNext   true                    phrase    c            return phrase      Example from my Verizon HTC One M8     using method from above System out println getDeviceName        Using https   github com jaredrummler AndroidDeviceNames System out println DeviceName getDeviceName      Result   HTC6525LVW HTC One  M8
