Common sense of identifying true and false iPhones. The complexity of the market makes us lost in it, so we should master this little common sense to prevent us from being cheated. Travelling goods, parallel goods, set machines, refurbished machines, demon machines. How much do you know?
Operation method
Alignments are iPhones purchased at authorized outlets in mainland China. This kind of machine has its own simplified Chinese, network access license (network access license is only available in mainland China), and three guarantee warranty card, which can enjoy one year national joint insurance in China.
According to the default definition in the industry, smuggled mobile phones are mobile phones that should have been sold to other countries or regions, but entered the domestic market after evading tariffs. In the real sense, smuggled mobile phones are not fake. It is just that there is no warranty in China, and it does not support the operation of some domestic operator networks and some domestic software. (The price difference between parallel goods and licensed goods generally ranges from 500 yuan to 800 yuan) The mobile phone model is obtained through the identification of parallel goods through [Settings] → [General] → [About this phone]. At the end of the slash, the first two are CH, ZP, LL, Japanese, etc.
The mobile phones returned to the factory with quality problems after being sold and used (within the guaranteed replacement period), and then refurbished and replaced the defective parts. The machines sold again meet the factory technical standards (the price difference between the mobile phones and the licensed products is generally between 300 yuan and 600 yuan).
Refurbishment machine Individuals or private enterprises will renovate and repair the machines acquired by various means, and sell the machines as new machines. (The general market price of the second mobile phone ranges from 1500 yuan to 2500 yuan, and the renovation cost ranges from 300 yuan to 1000 yuan.) Get the mobile phone model through [Settings] → [General] → [About this phone]. The first letter, if it starts with M, is the original new machine, if it starts with N, is the official replacement or official turnover (set machine).
The so-called demon machine is that some unscrupulous businessmen change the serial number, IMEI and model of the mobile phone by modifying the font chip of the mobile phone, so that the original locked machine can fake the Hong Kong version and sell the price of the Hong Kong version. Because the serial number modified by the profiteer is officially available, it is impossible to know whether it is a demon machine by checking the serial number. The most direct way to identify it is currently that the monster has 3194 errors when the machine is flushed, and can never upgrade the firmware.
