+
+   Get Android device information. Returns a :func:`~collections.namedtuple`
+   with the following attributes. Values which cannot be determined are set to
+   the defaults given as parameters.
+
+   * ``release`` - Android version, as a string (e.g. ``"14"``).
+
+   * ``api_level`` - API level of the running device, as an integer (e.g. ``34``
+     for Android 14). To get the API level which Python was built against, see
+     :func:`sys.getandroidapilevel`.
+
+   * ``manufacturer`` - `Manufacturer name
+     <https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build#MANUFACTURER>`__.
+
+   * ``model`` - `Model name
+     <https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build#MODEL>`__ –
+     typically the marketing name or model number.
+
+   * ``device`` - `Device name
+     <https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build#DEVICE>`__ –
+     typically the model number or a codename.
+
+   * ``is_emulator`` - ``True`` if the device is an emulator; ``False`` if it's
+     a physical device.
+
+   Google maintains a `list of known model and device names
+   <https://storage.googleapis.com/play_public/supported_devices.html>`__.
