How to distinguish the authenticity of second hand apples, and how to check whether the second hand

Apple mobile phones are generally not fake, as long as they are copycat or refurbished.

It's easy to distinguish if it's a copycat, even if the appearance is exactly the same, the iOS system can't be copied, check the system steps: Settings - General - About this machine, there are detailed information about the phone on it.

Since you're talking about second-hand apples, it doesn't make much sense to identify refurbished.

The easiest and most direct way is to identify the authenticity of an Apple phone by querying the serial number of the phone

1. Take out your iPhone and open "Settings" in the main interface.

2. After opening "Settings", tap "General", and then tap "About This Mac".

3. At this time, you can see the information you need about the machine, and remember the serial number of the mobile phone.

4. Open the web interface of the computer browser and enter "Apple mobile phone serial number query".

5. After querying, various information of the mobile phone appeared, which was the best Apple mobile phone.

Extended information: Other ways to identify the authenticity of an Apple phone:

1. Pay attention to the transaction of mobile phone trading transactions, as the saying goes, "you get what you pay for", if the ** of the mobile phone is too low or unreasonable, seriously consider starting, don't lose big because of the small.

2. Check the serial number through Apple's official website, and push back one year to the activation time of the mobile phone, if the activation time is similar to the purchase time of the original owner, the mobile phone will not be a refurbished machine.

3. Install iTunes on your computer and connect your computer and phone. If iTunes can recognize iPhones, it's a real iPhone.

4. Enter * in the standby state of the mobile phone* A string of numbers displayed by the mobile phone is the serial number of its motherboard, and then look at the IMEI number on the box of the machine and take out the SIM card tray to check the IMEI number on the side and compare the three to see if they are all consistent. If it is consistent, it can be judged to be a real Apple phone.

Here's how to see if a second-hand phone is original:

1) Look at the serial number (IMEI).

Enter * in the standby state of your phone and write down a string of numbers that appear on your phone. Remove the battery and look at the serial number on the white label (case serial number) on the two labels on the back of the fuselage, and the other label is generally the network access license to see if the serial number is the same as the previous number.

Then look at the IMEI number on the box of the machine, compare the three, to see if they are all common, if not, then the machine is likely to be a trace of the trace through repair or parts assembly. If the three numbers are the same, it means that the mobile phone is **, not a refurbished phone.

2) Look at the phone case.

The inner screen, outer screen, camera head, etc., only need to touch these parts, and fingerprints will be left. Look at the gap between the top and bottom of the machine, the open space around the keyboard, and the charger slot, etc., whether there are any dust and traces of use. The shell of the innovative machine is generally made of imitation of the original or old shell, so the front and rear parts of the shell are very simple and not tightly closed.

3) Look at the outer packaging and instructions of the machine.

The packaging and instructions of the regular new machine are printed exquisitely, and the fonts and drawings are very clear and hierarchical, while the counterfeit packaging boxes are mostly simple, single-sided paper, imitation fonts and drawings are very rough, and the printing handwriting is vague.

4) Look at the phone accessories.

The new machine of the regular manufacturer has a full set of original accessories, at least one battery and one charge, the accessories of the innovative mobile phone are generally not completely or not the original, it is best to understand what are the standard original accessories, if you find that there are scratches on the plug of the matching charger and headphones, then the mobile phone is also very likely not to be brand new.

5) Warranty period.

Second-hand mobile phones cannot enjoy all the rights and interests stipulated in the "three guarantees" of regular mobile phones, so there is generally no warranty period or the warranty period is relatively short. If the seller says that they are responsible for the warranty, they can't agree, because regular mobile phones are generally guaranteed nationwide.
