With your permission, I am in Burkina, and unfortunately there is no authorized iPhone agent, there are only retailers
The merchant sells the mobile in its box and envelope, but when I write the serial number on the back of the box on the Apple website, it gives me that the warranty has expired. When I asked him, he says that the mobile has been in the market for XNUMX years, so the warranty falls automatically.
Searching for the serial number, I found the warranty expires on February XNUMX, XNUMX, and I bought the phone yesterday, November XNUMX, is this device resold to me?
I found a new Yvonne XNUMX on the street on the ground and announced the phone on the street, and no one came forward. Is it possible through Sreial Number to find out the owner of the phone
Useful article
Finally, if it starts with the letter F then this phone is “refurbished
My brother, I asked Apple, they said the information is incorrect and they do not know why people would like to trade this information.
What does it mean that the phone is replaced by the appearance of the letter N? !!
I was reading this and really found what I was looking for for your article really useful and I would be grateful if I keep writing in the future.
To ensure you have a new one, buy from Jarir and famous outlets and relax
Indeed, buying from reliable agents or sources is very useful, but you also must know these methods because you do not guarantee where you will buy and not everyone is available to buy from approved agents.
May Allah reward you all the best .
And reward you like him, my dear brother. We hope that we always meet your expectations.
Thank you again for your motivated comment.
Ok, how do I know when the warranty expired on the date
Unfortunately, I bought a new phone, and it was basically new. As soon as I opened it from the box, I found it on iOS 10. At that time, we were at the beginning of iOS 12. I updated it and checked the battery. Unfortunately, I found it at 86%.
This is very unfortunate
The imei site is only available to Americans Is there another site for everyone?
May Allah reward you for this article, really, very useful and very important
And reward you like him, my dear brother. We hope that we always meet your expectations.
Thank you again for your motivated comment.
I have a letter A
May God reward you well Brother Muhammad Arafa, you made an appreciated effort, and I hope you will not be discouraged by negative opinions.
And reward you like him, my dear brother. This is our duty, my brother, and I hope that I will always meet your good opinion regarding the negative comments: On the contrary, I benefit from them by knowing the default and modifying it and knowing what the follower needs, and I thank you again and if you have any comment or idea for the site then tell us, good luck Insha'Allah.
And the eye of satisfaction with every defect as a blameless eye ** And the eye of discontent always expresses the equal
I thought of something new !!!
What we have benefited from this article ,,, and all the methods that I mentioned are ineffective except for making sure of the guarantee, which is the best XNUMX% reliable method via the serial number .. As for checking the cover, battery and the second screws, they are not useful, especially the model number, as it is for Apple only, i.e. If the buyer replaces, returns or renews the device, then you will be notified of that via the Model Number through Apple .. But if you bought the device from a sub-dealer and the device was replaced or refurbished, do not be happy to meet this information, the lover of the heart!
So, the serial number is the most important thing to make sure that the warranty is still inactive, meaning not to use the device ,,, and in a second way, which is to make sure not to reset completely, as the last settings of the device are mentioned in the settings!
I mean, the article is empty and not new !!!
You are always criticized and I don’t like anything
Most of the articles enter and criticize and criticize the site
My brother, say a good word and thank the website owners or editors, even if you like it, be quiet without gossip
We are an old follower and know 99% of the tips and tricks and what we talked about and criticized young people
On the contrary, their efforts are above our head, and if it were not for God, then they did not know us the iPhone in this way and experience, and I always feel that I fall short with them and I do not thank them
Follow you, the greatest site we have known to Apple, and you do not care about criticism
First of all, it seems that you would like a good reader, because I did not criticize or denounce the effect of your words in response to you.
Secondly, I have been following this site since I owned an iPhone 4, but my failure to comment was not because I did not follow it, but it was because I did not want to register my email on the site!
Third, criticism brings newness, and it is constructive criticism that you may be too small to understand.
Fourth, if I do not thank them in my heart, I will not continue to follow them, but I always want them and for you the best.
Fifthly, if my criticism of their articles was an offense, it would not have been approved and published. I have the right to criticize and their right not to publish.
Finally, the word "gossip" is not appropriate to be issued by a respectable person!
Thank you very much for your opinion, my dear brother, and I apologize that the article did not like you, but the idea of developing all the methods is to make the reader benefit from the article and offer him all the new, and I believe that applying all the methods in the article will be a confirmation of the person.

I apologize for the word gossip, brother Sahir
Criticism and expressing your opinion is one thing, and complaining is another. I am not a child, my dear brother.
I've been following iPhone Islam since the iPhone 3GS and fully aware of the comments complaining about criticism don't fear
The reason that the site is patient with people's comments is only patience, not bad words or insulting and cursing
In general, I would like to show you how your writing style is complaining and thank you
Thank you for the response Brother Muhammad, may God bless you
Pardon my dear brother, this is our duty.
May God grant you success and bless you.
IPhone 7 Plus I bought it with a new carton, the letter F came out to me, but it was with me for 3 years, and things are good.
As long as it works very efficiently this is a very good thing, thank God for that.
I would like to comment on the comment of one of the brothers who wants to leave the iPhone and I say
Try, but I don't think it's a good idea
I have an iPhone XNUMX, I changed its battery and it works better than you can imagine
Do you think that any other device from the age of the iPhone XNUMX still works so far as well as the iPhone?
I agree with you, my dear brother.
Many thanks for all that is offered
I have been following you for about XNUMX years, the least that can be said, thank you, in fact, I have a wonderful library of free applications that I learned about through your site (options for XNUMX applications every week) in addition to other rich and useful articles.
Pardon my dear brother, this is our duty, and we hope that we will always meet your expectations.
Thank you again.

Ok, my brother, God willing, I will talk about it in a detailed article soon, and I will put it on my list, God willing.

Pardon my dear brother, this is our duty, and we hope that we will always meet your expectations.
Thank you again.
Thank you so much
Pardon my brother, we hope that we always meet your expectations.
Regarding the warranty, I have a special section in the iPhone settings that explains this - Go to Settings, then General, then Transfer, and you will find the validity of the coverage.
Thank you very much for the information, my dear brother, the method you mentioned I think gives more information, but your method is also good.
Good news 😂
Do you have any comment regarding the article, brother?
I think it is time to leave the iPhone and try Samsung or Huawei because a phone that loses 20% charge at night we do not need it.
Why, brother? 🤔
The iPhone, whatever it is, has its reputation, but of course you have the right to do so, but you may have a problem with the phone.
If you are determined to change, I advise you to take the note and not approach Huawei. This is because of its problems with Google.
