Apple’s official refurbished phones are about to go on sale in the country. How can we tell the difference? In fact, the easiest way is to look at the price. If you buy from a regular channel, then the cheap one must be a refurbished phone. Of course, if it is a regular channel, you don’t need to guess, the direct store will tell you so. If you want to buy a mobile phone from an informal channel, then you want to verify whether you are being fooled by the merchant. You can also use the following methods to make a simple judgment: 1. First of all, judging from the packaging box, unlike the replacement machine which only has a single head, the refurbished machine comes with packaging when it leaves the factory, and is also equipped with new accessories, and "Apple Certified Pre-Owned" is printed on the front of the box. 2. The second is to look at the serial number of the phone. The method is to enter the phone settings, then click General, then click About this phone, and click Serial number. The serial number generally starts with letters such as C7G, C3K, CCP, DYJ, DQG, DQJ, C28, DQH, and C3M. Among them, C7G, C3K, C3M, and CCP are after-sales replacement phones for the mainland GSM version, DYJ is for the after-sales replacement phone for the CDMA version (telecom version), and the phones starting with DQG and DQH cover a wider range, including American, Korean, and Hong Kong versions. Because there are more Hong Kong version serial numbers, it can be determined that the Hong Kong version phones starting with DQG and DQH are official refurbished phones, and DQJ are mostly replaced phones in South Korea after-sales. Many American version phones starting with C28 are mostly official unlocked models. There must be replacement records when checked in the after-sales GSX system, so these phones are also official refurbished. Although domestic refurbished phones have not been officially launched, I believe they will continue to use this identification rule. If you find that the serial number of the phone you bought is the same as the above serial number, then you should pay more attention. You can check the serial number on the Apple official website to learn about the relevant information of the phone. If you find that it has been activated before the purchase time, then it may be an official refurbished phone or a replacement phone. The price of Apple's officially refurbished phones in China is still relatively affordable. It is recommended that you purchase them through regular channels. The mobile phone market is very complicated. Even if you have a pair of sharp eyes, you will inevitably make mistakes when facing the deception of experienced JS in the grey market. Don't be too clever.
