There are Chinese gestures on the keyboard of Hong Kong Bank's mobile phone, while the water-changed mobile phone is hand-carved, rough, unnatural and opaque, which can be seen by turning on the keyboard light in the dark, especially on the metal keyboard like Motorola V3.
3 Open the back cover of the mobile phone and take out the battery. There is a cell phone model on the back of the fuselage. Many models of banks in Hong Kong are the same as those in the Mainland. For example, the Hong Kong model of Samsung U608 is also called U608, while the water reform model is U600 (probably because China people prefer the number "8").
The panel of SAMSUNG Hong Kong mobile phone has the same "ANGCALL" logo as the licensed one, while the water reform only has the "Samsung" logo.
5 Check the phone version. Licensed mobile phones have a relatively fixed official version, and parallel imports also have some specific versions. Some versions will only appear on Hong Kong mobile phones. The specific versions of various mobile phones are different, so we can't introduce them one by one. This requires everyone to find some professional mobile phone forums to consult relative mobile phone experts.
Some mobile phones may just be water-modified machines, but they are not listed in Hong Kong and other Chinese-speaking areas, including some smuggled from South Korea and Japan.
7 pure English mobile phone is also a water modification machine, no doubt, if you don't need Chinese short saddle? Hey? Is your leg burnt? Suddenly blowing the bag?
There is no doubt that pure English mobile phones are also changed by water. If you don't need Chinese short messages and have full confidence in your foreign language level, you can also choose, because such a mobile phone has not been brushed and its quality is the same as that of licensed products.
The price of parallel mobile phones is also relatively fixed. The price of the same mobile phone in Hong Kong is similar all over the country. If it's much cheaper, it's water reform or refurbished machine.
You can see the refurbished machine by looking at the production date. For example, if you enter "*#92702689" in the standby state of Nokia's non-smart phone, you can display information such as production date. If the date is too early, don't buy; There are different ways to distinguish specific brands. You can find your own query method online.
10 refurbished machine will also have some wear marks on the shell and fixing nuts. In addition, the batteries of refurbished machines are generally assembled. First, JS is unwilling to match the original battery. Second, the original battery contacts are worn and easy to check. In addition, the shell of the refurbished machine is probably not original. However, the situation of refurbished machines is not serious, so I won't go into details.
The above only introduces some common discrimination methods, and the discrimination methods of specific brands and models are different. If you are interested, you can go to the mobile phone forum corresponding to IT 168 to find it.
It's just a way of distinguishing. Maybe some people say, can't you buy it if you know how to tell? Then you may have been cheated. Distinguishing parallel imports is only basic, just like the multiplication formula in mathematics. You have to learn to solve the problem. The method is dead, but the purchase is alive, and knowledge is in it.
If you don't understand something, you can raise it, or there is a better way to publish it for mobile phone lovers to see. Let's have a look!
