Knowing the difference between fake and genuine electrical devices might be difficult for many people when they’ve made a mistake twice.
Fake GSM mobile phones are not an exception, and we all face the issue of learning how to tell the real ones from the fake ones.
When it comes to making fake phones that look authentic, counterfeiters go to great lengths.
Because of the difficulty in telling a fake from a real phone by its casing, screen, printed logos, branding, packaging, or accessories, fake phones are becoming increasingly popular.
The IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) is a 15-digit number that is used to identify mobile devices (International Mobile Equipment Identity Number). This is how you can tell if a phone is genuine or not.
Here’s how to do it.
1. To acquire your phone’s IMEI number, dial *#06#.
2. Type the IMEI number into the checkbox on IMEI.info.
Information about the phone will be automatically provided to you by the system. Fake brands are likely to present information that is inconsistent with the information on the phone.
