How to distinguish between licensed and parallel imports of mobile phones?

This one is actually very easy to divide, this"Two"All kinds of mobile phones are the same mobile phones according to the manufacturer, and they are all produced from the same manufacturer. Licensed goods are generally in the store or the merchant's designated sales point** machine, need to pay individual tax, the merchant invoices, **higher than parallel goods**, enjoy after-sales service such as national warranty. Parallel goods (most of them are smuggled into the mainland for sale) are the most rare, and they do not enjoy the after-sales service of the national joint insurance, but sometimes they can enjoy the store insurance of parallel traders. Many people mistakenly think that the quality of parallel cargo aircraft is very poor, but in fact, they think that it is not complete, and parallel cargo aircraft are divided into brand new and refurbished aircraft.

A new phone is an unused phone directly produced by the manufacturer, and a refurbished phone is a new assembly of the used phone (replacing some parts and replacing the old case with a new one), because it is not assembled from the manufacturer's side, so the quality cannot be guaranteed. In addition to the refurbished machine, the main difference between the cargo plane and the parallel cargo machine is the first and after-sales service.

The network access permit mentioned by the brother upstairs will have that label in the parallel cargo plane in addition to the refurbished machine. In fact, this sticker can get it, although I haven't verified the authenticity of the sticker, but I don't think the average retailer will identify its authenticity.

The easiest way is to see if the battery compartment of the phone has a network access license.

If there is, it is licensed, otherwise parallel goods or fakes.

Common words: mainland licensed, Hong Kong licensed, parallel import, refurbished machine, Korean version machine.

Licensed goods in mainland China: purchased through regular channels, mobile phones sold at designated dealers, such mobile phones are basically assembled by regular domestic manufacturers, have network access licenses, and can enjoy after-sales services such as national warranty and one-year warranty.

Hong Kong licensed goods: only in Hong Kong sales, in Hong Kong to enjoy warranty and other after-sales service, in the mainland can not enjoy the joint warranty of mobile phones, such mobile phones are generally Chinese traditional Chinese system, there are Chinese traditional Chinese manuals, mobile phones are directly imported from abroad.

Parallel goods: also known as European version machine, is a mobile phone sold abroad, also imported from abroad, and then redo the mobile phone system, made into Chinese simplified Chinese, in use and the mainland licensed goods exactly the same, but do not enjoy domestic warranty and other after-sales service.

Refurbished phone: It is a patchwork of second-hand mobile phones, and it is used to replace it with a new mobile phone shell as a means to pass it off as a brand new mobile phone. Quality is hard ***.

Korean version of the machine: is to imitate the shape of the technology as a means, to create and the original machine cap almost the same mobile phone, this kind of mobile phone is only very similar to the original mobile phone in appearance, the function is far from good, quality, there is no unified standard, so it's hard to say.

To sum up: mainland licensed, Hong Kong licensed goods and parallel goods are all original goods, the difference is mainly in the warranty, the mainland licensed goods are the most expensive, Hong Kong licensed goods are second, and parallel goods are the cheapest. The refurbished machine and the Korean version of the machine are similar to ** in appearance, and it is difficult to say in other aspects, so ** is very different.

Therefore, when choosing a mobile phone, it is still the mainstream of mainland licensed goods, Hong Kong licensed goods and parallel imports, if you want to just buy a look to play, refurbished machines and Korean machines can be considered.

In my personal experience, the quality of the current mainstream brand mobile phones is like this: Nokia, Sony Eyney, Motorola, LG> Samsung.

If you want to buy parallel mobile phones or Hong Kong licensed goods, Nokia and Sony Ericsson are the first choice, because the quality is very good, even if most of the problems are after a year, the mainland licensed goods have to be repaired at their own expense after a year.

The probability of problems with Samsung mobile phones is much greater than that of Nokia and Sony Ai, and most of them appear in the system and battery, but Samsung's mainland licensed and parallel mobile phones are also the biggest difference, and the difference can reach thousands of yuan at most. Use these price differences to make a maintenance preparation, or buy licensed goods directly to enjoy a year of free maintenance, this is up to you to choose.
