UWP - How to get device model

I need to know my device model when my app running.

I try many ways to get that like: 

string[] properties = { "System.Devices.ModelName"}; await PnpObject.FindAllAsync(PnpObjectType.DeviceContainer, properties);

or new EasClientDeviceInformation().SystemProductName;

But both never return my device model, like Lumia 640. On desktop it works fine but on mobile not.

Any ideas to solve my problem?

Thanks

Lumia Models are not the actual Model Names. For example my Lumia 640 is RM-1073. But one of my friend who uses a Carrier Locked Lumia 640 phone model is RM-1072.

You can get this info using

var clientDeviceInformation = new EasClientDeviceInformation();
string systemProductName = clientDeviceInformation.SystemProductName;

There is a way to receive Lumia Model Number too. If the phone's Name is never changed, it will still have the original Name. You can retrieve that using

string friendlyName = clientDeviceInformation.FriendlyName;

However there might be very few people who does not change their phone's name.
