information about windows phone (model number)

windows-phone, windows-phone-7, windows-phone-8

Solution

You should use PhoneNameResolver, a simple class that resolves the obscure devices names like

RM-885_apac_prc_250

into friendlier commercial names like

NOKIA Lumia 720

Here is a sample code:

var phone = PhoneNameResolver.Resolve(
    DeviceStatus.DeviceManufacturer, DeviceStatus.DeviceName);
SomeTextBox.Text = phone.FullCanonicalName;
