How to Check If Your iPhone Is Refurbished or New?
When you buy an iPhone from the market or a third party, you cannot simply guess whether it’s new or not just by looking at it. In order to know about your iPhone, you should always head to the “Settings”. The About section in the Settings of the iPhone contains all the information you need, it has IME numbers, information of software version and the storage of the phone too. There is another number there which is something like “MG4C2MZ/A” and this is exactly what you need for the identification of your iPhone.
This number is basically the model identifier, with it you can easily identify the status of your iPhone whether it is new, refurbished, replaced or personalized.
Steps to Know if your iPhone is Is Refurbished or Not
Here are the steps you need to follow:
1. Go to the “Settings” of your iPhone.
2. Tap on the option that says “General > About”.
3. Keep scrolling and you will see a model number.
The first letter of the model number is the thing that needs your attention.
If your model number starts from an “F” like if its “FQCL2LL/A” then it means that your iPhone is refurbished.
If it starts with an “M” like if its “MG4C2MZ/A” then it means that your iPhone is totally new and it is bought directly from the Apple store.
If the model number starts with an “N” such as “NQCL2LL/A” then it means that your iPhone is replaced and it is replaced due to a problem from the Apple store of the Apple Authorized Service Center.
