How to Spot a Fake iPhone in Kampala: 5 Things to Check Before You Buy
Buying a premium smartphone is a major investment, and unfortunately, the market is flooded with high-copy clones and refurbished fakes. To protect your hard-earned money, here are the absolute non-negotiables you must check before handing over cash for an iPhone:
Verify the Serial Number & IMEI: Go to Settings > General > About. Copy the Serial Number and paste it directly into Apple's official Check Coverage website (
checkcoverage.apple.com). If the system says "Invalid Serial Number," walk away immediately.Check for True Tone: Swipe down your control center, long-press the brightness slider, and look for the True Tone icon. Fake or cheaply replaced screens will completely lack this feature.
Inspect the Font and Bezels: Apple devices have perfectly uniform, razor-thin bottom bezels. Counterfeit models often feature a thicker "chin" at the bottom of the display and generic, pixelated fonts in the system settings.
Test the Camera Control & Action Buttons: On newer models like the iPhone 16 series, clone factories struggle to replicate the capacitive, pressure-sensitive feedback of the official Camera Control button.
At Andrew Gadget Store, we eliminate the guesswork. Every single device we sell is 100% genuine, backed by verifiable serial numbers and official diagnostics. Don’t gamble with street vendors—shop with guaranteed authenticity.
