Two more days of the New Year, many people will choose to buy mobile phones at this time, people who understand better will choose to buy a second mobile phone, after all, the second mobile phone is super cost-effective, but some people will choose a new machine, more at ease, a fan is on the official website to start the new iPhone 14pro max, but what makes him wonder is that the activation status of the machine not only shows not activated, but also the three more words "pre-activation" behind. What's going on here?
As can be seen from the whole machine report, this iPhone14Pro Max is 256GB, dark purple, the activation status is not activated (pre-activated), and other data are normal.
There is no difference between actual pre-activation and non-activation, both are brand new machines, there is no problem, the only difference between the two is that the pre-activation is displayed first, but Apple uses to distinguish the purchase channel and anti-scalper. Only Apple phones on Apple's official website and Apple's Tmall flagship store are displayed pre-activated, and other licensees sell them to show that they are not activated. Pre-activated mobile phones Check the serial number on the official website to show more content, but not activated ones.
After the user actually boots and activates, the pre-activated warranty expiration date will temporarily inconsistent with the user's boot activation date, because the pre-activated mobile phone warranty time is calculated from the day of Apple's official shipment. The correct warranty expiration date will not be updated until the next few days. If the merchant tells you that this machine is pre-activated, so the activation date is advanced, don't believe him. This machine is most likely a rear seal!
When we get a brand new machine, we must record the video of unboxing, which can be used as evidence if there is a problem later. Don't be in a hurry to unpack, you need to use the serial number on the back to query the machine data to see that there is no problem with the machine's data, and then unpack.
