Due to the fact that the Nokia brand is one of the most popular, there are many substandard and frankly fake products on the modern mobile phone market. If you want to protect yourself from it, carefully check not only the presence of quality certificates and other technical documentation, but also the integrity of the case and phone accessories.
Instructions
Step 1
It is advisable to buy any product from Nokia in its branded stores, thus, you can significantly reduce the likelihood of buying a fake mobile phone several times. If you find a defect manually at home, contact the store where you bought the equipment with a demand to replace the fake phone with a licensed one.
Step 2
If after purchase you want to identify a fake Nokia 5130 phone, carefully examine it from all sides. It should not have uneven, smeared, crooked inscriptions.
Step 3
Then proceed to check the software. Switch on your phone. Its operating system should boot with a blue Nokia wordmark on a white background. Check the correctness and correctness of the spelling of all menu items. There should be no such glaring errors as "File manager" (file manager) and "Sound regordor" (sound recording).
Step 4
Next, check the imei of the phone. To do this, dial * # 06 # and press "call", check the numbers that appear on the screen with the sticker under the battery. If everything is ok, then dial * # 0000 # and press "call". This way you will find out the firmware version of your phone. Now try installing some application on your phone. If the device displays a message stating that installation is impossible, most likely you bought a fake Nokia phone.
Step 5
Also, keep track of when your phone is turned on. The fake phone turns on for 5-10 minutes, the original one takes about a minute. The camera will never have autofocus, even if it is provided in accordance with the technical documentation. In general, be extremely careful, as cybercriminals often use Nokia phones to manufacture and distribute low-quality products. If you bought a defective or fake Nokia 6300 phone, please contact the manufacturer's service center immediately. There you will be provided with all the assistance you need and will provide you with an original Nokia phone.
