The popularity of Apple technology around the world is growing every year. And with it, the number of stores that sell it. What is the difference between an authorized Apple reseller and a regular seller? And what should you pay attention to if you buy a gadget with your own hands? Read in this review.
Where can I buy Apple devices and not lose money?
If reliability and quality assurance are important to you, there are two safe options.:
- Branded salons – Apple Store. The most obvious option is an Apple hardware store from the brand itself. But there are no such people in Uzbekistan yet. And the official Apple online hardware store does not offer delivery to our country yet. Some people are looking for intermediaries who could bring the gadget for an additional fee, but we do not recommend this method. If something goes wrong or you run into scammers, you will be left without money and without a device.
- Authorized Apple resellers. Such stores are the official territory of Apple. They work according to the standards of the brand, which controls everything from sales to quality of service. Therefore, it is absolutely safe to buy Apple equipment from authorized resellers. All devices are new, original and guaranteed. And the stores themselves have the same unique global brand atmosphere as the Apple Store.
How do I find an authorized Apple dealer in Uzbekistan?
Go to the official Apple website. Then enter the city and select the product you are interested in. You will see a list of stores that you can trust.
Where is it not worth buying Apple equipment?
Of course, Apple devices are sold not only in the Apple Store and at authorized dealers. Private sellers from ad sites also offer original used devices. But it is extremely difficult to assess their internal state “by eye”. Was the device flooded with water? Has it been repaired? Are all the parts original? Only professional diagnostics can provide answers to these questions.
And under the guise of a used gadget, you may be sold a refurbished device or even a fake. The official Apple warranty does not apply to such gadgets.
“Gray” sellers lure buyers with a pleasant price, but they keep silent about the risks. They buy equipment abroad, ostensibly for personal use, and then resell it in Uzbekistan. Due to the fact that the “gray” sellers transport gadgets unofficially and do not pay taxes, they can offer a lower price. But keep in mind: the iPhone may turn out to be “locked” for a specific operator, and then it will not work with the SIM card.
There is another danger. The IMEI of “gray” iPhones is usually registered to individuals. They can apply to cancel the registration. In this case, the smartphone will be locked. This will not happen with officially imported iPhones.
Tip: if you buy equipment by hand or in unauthorized stores, you will need to check the Apple equipment. If the device in front of you is original, it will show you which model is in front of you, whether the gadget was activated earlier and what is the remaining warranty period. So, go to the official website checkcoverage.apple.com and enter the serial number of the device. This way you can check iPhone, iPad, MacBook, Apple iWatch and other devices.
