This Is What Happens To Fake iPhones [Video]

There has been an increase in reports of fake iPhones being sold around the world. That in itself is not such a surprising development. After all, the iPhone has become quite a successful product. Apple is constantly battling this criminal behavior, and as if fake iPhones weren’t enough, some people even open fake Apple stores. It’s not just something that Apple has to be on the lookout for, but customers also need to be observant about where they buy their Apple products.

More and more people are unfortunately receiving fake iPhones when they purchase them online. It’s something that both Apple and the authorities are constantly trying to stop. What people should remember is that if you want to buy an Apple product then do so in one of the certified Apple stores around world. Apple has a complete list of all their Apple stores which you can easily consult when looking for the store that might be closest to you. That way, you won’t have to be disappointed when your Apple product arrives at your door.

A shipment of fake iPhones was recently discovered in Russia, and the authorities decided to capture the moment to show what happens to these devices. For people looking to buy a new iPhone, this might be heartbreaking to watch. But remember that these fake iPhones probably don’t support all of the great features that Apple’s real iPhones do. They wouldn’t do anyone any good if they were just handed out. They are counterfeit replicas of better technology that no one other than Apple can reproduce over and over again. Apple has spent millions of dollars on perfecting their design, and I doubt anyone has the capability to produce an iPhone that is equivalent to the quality that Apple assures. If you are short on money, don’t go for one of these fake iPhones. Instead, wait a while and save up for a real one. You will be both happier and have an iPhone that actually does what an iPhone is supposed to do. Let these fake iPhones meet their doom!
