Mobile press office – The craze for the iPhone is the highest in the world. Anyone who uses a smartphone definitely wants to have an iPhone in their life. You can guess the iPhone craze by knowing that almost every celebrity owns an iPhone. iPhones are known for their premium design and security features. That’s why people want to buy it. Let us tell you that iPhone tops the list of most purchased smartphones in the world. According to the 2024 quarterly report, Apple generated approximately $39 billion in revenue from iPhone sales alone.
Faced with the craze for the iPhone, some fraudsters have also entered the market. Fake iPhones have also been introduced into the market. The design and user interface of a fake iPhone are designed in such a way that you won’t be able to recognize it if you don’t look closely. People are being deceived into selling fake iPhones. Fake iPhones are not only offered at the time of purchase, but often, even during repair, customers receive fake iPhones instead of the original ones. Today we are going to tell you some ways by which you can easily find out whether your iPhone is fake or genuine. These methods will be useful not only when buying a new iPhone, but also on the old iPhone.
Pay attention to the packaging
The packaging of the original iPhone is first class. More details about the iPhone are mentioned there. Along with this, a barcode and QR code are given in the box, through which you can identify the real or fake product. If you receive a box without a barcode or QR code, the iPhone may be counterfeit.
Check the serial number and IMEI number
To check the serial number, you must go to the iPhone settings. Now go to General and navigate to the Account option. Here you will get important details related to your phone. Write down this serial number and go to the Apple Check Coverage website. To find out the IMEI number, dial #06#. Now the IMEI number will appear in front of you. Now match this IMEI number with the IMEI number written on the box.
Check software from iOS
To check iOS, you need to go to the General option in Settings. In the General option, you will get information about software updates. You can also give commands to Siri to identify whether your device is fake or genuine. Give the command Hey Siri, if Siri responds, it means the device is genuine. If Siri doesn’t respond, your iPhone may be fake.
Check the App Store
Just like customers enjoy Google Play Store support on Android smartphones, the App Store is also available on iPhone. If your iPhone does not have an App Store, it means your iPhone is fake. Apart from this, you can also get your iPhone checked by visiting the official Apple store.
