Have you tried with HardwareInfo?

That's what I needed. Thanks.

I just found another solution for this requirement. By this solution, it can also retrieve other system information as well such as os version (deviceinfo_details_get_device_os_version).

QString deviceModel;

    if (bps_initialize() == BPS_SUCCESS) {
        qDebug() << "bps initialized";
        deviceinfo_details_t *deviceDetails = 0;

        if (deviceinfo_get_details(&deviceDetails) == BPS_SUCCESS) {
            deviceModel = deviceinfo_details_get_hardware_id(deviceDetails);
            deviceinfo_free_details(&deviceDetails);
        } else {
            qDebug() << "error retrieving device details";
        }

        bps_shutdown();
    } else {
        qDebug() << "error initializing bps";
    }
