Is there a way to get the name of a mobile device (e.g. "John's iPhone" ) using javascript?

Maybe I wasn't very clear... what I meant is not whether it's an iPhone, iPad etc. but the "device name" - for example it can be "John's iPhone".

You can use this snippet:

const getUA = () => {
    let device = "Unknown";
    const ua = {
        "Generic Linux": /Linux/i,
        "Android": /Android/i,
        "BlackBerry": /BlackBerry/i,
        "Bluebird": /EF500/i,
        "Chrome OS": /CrOS/i,
        "Datalogic": /DL-AXIS/i,
        "Honeywell": /CT50/i,
        "iPad": /iPad/i,
        "iPhone": /iPhone/i,
        "iPod": /iPod/i,
        "macOS": /Macintosh/i,
        "Windows": /IEMobile|Windows/i,
        "Zebra": /TC70|TC55/i,
    }
    Object.keys(ua).map(v => navigator.userAgent.match(ua[v]) && (device = v));
    return device;
}

console.log(getUA());
