Almost all Apple products are widely popular among consumers, so using the famous brand, many craftsmen began the production of fakes.
Naturally, the main producer of this counterfeit is China. And, despite the fact that there is no universal method for distinguishing a real brand iPhone from a copy, there are some nuances that need to be checked when choosing an iPhone.
What to pay attention to while choosing an iPhone that it is original or fake?
To understand if a real iPhone is offered to you in a store or a fake, you should pay attention:
- On the design of the packaging box.
- Stickers.
- Complete set.
- Type of smartphone
Packaging box design
Apple values its brand very much, so it is kind to all the details concerning the iPhone, including the packaging that first catches the eye of the buyer. It is made of coated dense cardboard with clear right angles. Brand logo, bitten apple made on the box by embossing.
At the bottom of the box should be a sticker on which should be indicated:
- The full name of the packaged model.
- IMEI
- The series number of this model.
- The volume of the drive.
The text of the information should be made in clear print without errors and descriptions, not have blurry letters and numbers, spots and other errors.
The appearance of the gadget
Inspection of the iPhone should begin with a study of the case. There cannot be the slightest gap between the front cover with the screen and the base; the abutment must be tight. You should carefully examine the buttons, they should not stagger, be pressed easily, accompanied by a smooth click, characteristic of iPhones. If a crack or crunch is heard when pressed, this is an obvious fake.
You should carefully inspect the case and the inscriptions applied to it, their text should be clear, without typos and errors. On the case, the model number and its IMEI should be clearly visible. Their data can be checked without problems by going to the page of the official Apple website.
The screen of this iPhone should be a deep black color. In some cases, when the iPhone is made in black, it may be slightly lighter than the case.
In the case when the screen color is gray, this already clearly shows that this model is most likely not a proprietary one. True, this may not indicate that the gadget is a complete copy, but it gives reason to assume that the iPhone may have visited some dubious service workshop.
If dust is present on the camera lens, under the glass, this may indicate that the gadget was opened and repaired.
The Apple logo, mounted on the rear panel of the case, is made of stainless metal alloy and is recessed under temperature into the case cover and is practically its element.
When viewed, be sure to turn on the iPhone. All screen colors should have a pleasant juicy look, without any extraneous shades. And a little trick - a small arrow should move on the icon of the “Clock” application, and on many fakes this trifle is not present.
