Nowadays, they often counterfeit everything that is not ashamed to counterfeit. Phones, in particular the IPhone, have not been spared by the Chinese bunglers. How can you tell an original iPhone from a Chinese one?
Instructions
Step 1
Pay attention to the packaging of the phone. If it is opened, carefully believe everything that lies there. Even if the device itself is "clean", the headset or charger can be replaced with Chinese ones.
Step 2
The charger of the branded iPhone weighs 60 g and it says Foxlink or Flextronix. The Chinese counterparts are lighter - they weigh 40 g, and often have Chinese characters on them.
Step 3
Take a closer look at the stickers on the phone box. If it's real, you will never see the sticker glued upside down relative to the text on the package.
Step 4
There should be no latches on the USB cable on the phone connector side.
Step 5
It's more difficult with a headset - there is no difference between the original and Chinese headphones, except that the wire for fakes is tougher.
Step 6
Take a closer look at the apple logo, which in some fakes can be bitten on the other side.
Step 7
The screen size of the branded IPhone is larger than that of fakes from China. This is clearly visible if the original and the copy are side by side.
Step 8
It is rather difficult to remove the cover of a real iPhone, which cannot be said about its Chinese counterpart.
Step 9
Macintosh is always installed on real iPhones. In the case of a fake, the system may differ. Or maybe you don’t understand at all what kind of OS and OS it is at all.
Step 10
Original Apple devices support Wi-Fi, but Chinese ones do not always. If your iPhone doesn't support Wi-Fi, it's definitely made in China.
Step 11
The touch display of fake iPhones reacts to the touch of any object, in contrast to the display of a proprietary device, which reacts only to the touch of your fingers.
Step 12
Original iPhones support virtual keyboard, while Chinese iPhones do not.
Step 13
Sometimes there are spelling errors and typos in certain items of the IPhone menu. This means that the device is clearly built in China and has nothing to do with Apple.
Step 14
The set with the iPhone may not include a table stand, a device for removing a SIM card from the device and a cloth. If you bought a brand new iPhone, and these items are not there, you should know that your device is clearly fake.
Step 15
The original iPhones always have built-in memory, while their Chinese competitors have removable flash drives.
