Why do many people like to buy American iPhones? What is the best for American versions and what is the difference between them and those in China?
In fact, whether it is the US version or the Chinese market, there is no essential difference in quality and function. However, for various reasons, the price of the US version of the iPhone is cheaper than that of the Chinese market.
First of all, the price of the national bank's iPhone includes tariffs, and the US version has a lower price than that of the national bank because it does not include tariffs. However, after all, reselling vendors also have to make money, so they are not much cheaper, at most several hundred.
Secondly, in addition to retail machines, the American version of iPhone on the market has two types, one is an official replacement machine, and the other is a lock machine.
official replacement means that when there is a problem with the iPhone during the warranty period, Apple after-sales service will directly replace the user with a new iPhone, and this iPhone is an official replacement. Because of the different domestic and foreign warranty policies, the principle of "only repair but not replace" after-sales use in China, most of the official replacement machines on the market are American versions, and the price is lower than that of ordinary retail machines.
lock machine refers to a machine with a network lock, which means that you have signed a contract with the operator and can only use the SIM card of the designated operator. Therefore, this type of contract machine, , is very cheap, but it is impossible to use it directly after taking it back to China, and you must have a card or blackmail.
So, when you buy American iPhone, don’t be greedy for cheapness. There will definitely be problems if the price is too cheap. Because the US version of iPhone does not have a formal purchasing channel, it is best to check the serial number before purchasing, check whether it is an official replacement, and whether there are any network locks or other issues.
