Some people think they're buying brand-new iPhones.
But they're actually buying iPhones that have been used before and simply repackaged.
Well, there are ways to check whether that iPhone you're buying is truly new before you make payment.
I'll share two methods below:
β«οΈ METHOD 1
- Check the phone's serial number at the back of the box.
- Then visit checkcoverage . apple . com (Type it appropriately.)
- Enter the serial number in the space provided.
After inputting the serial number...
β If you see "Please activate your iPhone" (or a similar message), that's a good sign. It means the iPhone has never been activated. It's purely new.
β οΈ But if the page says the phone is activated, that's questionable. A brand-new iPhone should normally not be activated yet except by its first owner.
β«οΈ METHOD 2
- You can also visit iUnlocker . com.
- Scroll down.
- Type in the IMEI or serial number.
- The site will display information about your device.
β "Past First Activation" should ideally show NO.
β οΈ If it shows YES, that phone has been used before.

If a vendor posts an iPhone on his status, and types 'IBM', 'IDM, 'ICM', or 'Mint', just know you have to be very careful.
They'll usually not explain to you except you ask.
Such phones are usually cheaper, so you think you're getting a good deal. But what you don't know is that you might be buying a problem.
Those coded expressions are used as a gimmick, since the vendors just assume that you already know the meaning.
The first three mean that the iPhone has issues, while the last one means that the iPhone isn't exactly UK-used.
Specifically...
IBM means Important Battery Message, suggesting that the battery is faulty.
ICM means Important Camera Message: camera problems.
IDM means Important Display Message: screen issues.
As for MINT, although some vendors will disagree....
When certain vendors say an iPhone is MINT, it usually means that it is more like Nigerian-used.
However, note that MINT doesn't necessarily mean the phone is faulty. It just means it was last used by a Nigerian customer. And it's usually cheaper than the ones they call UK-used.
Guys, please retweet for others.
