How to check whether the mobile phone is original?

Whether the mobile phone is original can be checked by serial number or IMEI number, price comparison, operating system check and performance check.

1. Check the serial number or IMEI number.

The serial number or IMEI number is the unique identifier of the mobile phone. It can be found in the phone settings, in the original box, and sometimes on the back of the phone. Verify the authenticity by verifying the validity of the number on the manufacturer's website.

Step 2 compare prices

If the price is too outrageous, it may mean a counterfeit product. Original mobile phones often have a relatively stable price range.

Step 3 check the operating system

Some fake mobile phones may use different operating systems, or use systems that look like the original but are actually modified.

4, check the performance

In order to test the performance of mobile phones, fake mobile phones may have low processor speed, memory or poor camera performance.

Matters needing attention in purchasing mobile phones

First of all, when buying a mobile phone, you should go to reputable large shopping malls, supermarkets, home appliance stores, online platforms and other businesses.

Secondly, we should check the vouchers, including IMEI serial code, network access license, three-guarantee voucher and so on. There will be a unified IMEI number on the outer packaging box, back cover (or battery slot) and mobile phone motherboard.

Thirdly, check the appearance, the outer packaging should be intact, and check the fuselage for scratches, trauma and bad spots on the screen.

Finally, it is necessary to carefully check whether there are records in the phone's call records, SMS records, picture records and other storage contents to prevent the phone sold by the seller from being used by others or even refurbished.

In addition, consumers must obtain shopping vouchers: they should take the initiative to ask the seller for invoices or bills, and at the same time, they should also ask the seller to write down the model, fuselage number, factory serial number or batch number of accessories, product trademark and model on the invoice.
