In such a situation, if you are also buying a new iPhone or you have recently bought a new iPhone, then you can find out in minutes whether your iPhone is a duplicate or not with these 5 methods. With these methods, you can avoid any big fraud. Let's know about them.
Siri will reveal the secret.
It has been seen that Siri often does not work properly in duplicate iPhones or its response is very bad. Whereas in the original iPhone, Siri works very well, so you can get many things done without touching the phone. To test this, you can ask Siri things like 'Hey Siri, what's the weather like today?'. Now if Siri does not respond in this condition or is not active at all, then your iPhone may be a duplicate.
Check from the iPhone Lookup website.
To check whether your iPhone is original or duplicate, you can also check it by going to Apple's official website and entering the serial number of your iPhone. For this, you have to go to Google write Check Coverage - Apple, and go to the first website. After entering the serial number here, if the website says 'Invalid Serial Number', then understand that something is wrong. To see the serial number of the phone, first go to the Settings of the device, then General, then About, and copy the serial number from here.
Check these two apps too.
In many duplicate iPhones, camera features like Compass, Gyroscope, or TrueDepth do not work or these features are not seen in the phone at all. In such a situation, you can find out by downloading the 'Gyroscope Test' or 'Sensor Test' app from the App Store.
Connect the phone here.
To find out whether the iPhone is a duplicate or not, you can also check by connecting the iPhone to the computer. For this, try connecting your phone to iTunes / Finder. Now if the device is not being detected in iTunes or Finder, then this phone can also be a duplicate because the original iPhone gets synced within minutes.
Test with 'Measure' app
Apart from this, you can also know with the help of the 'Measure' app whether your iPhone is fake or not. This AR app of Apple works properly only on the original iPhone. In such a situation, if the app does not run or is not already installed on the iPhone, then the iPhone may be a duplicate.
