PHEW. Thanks. Bought one off an independent eBayer, they don't seem particularly suspicious and have 100% Feedback etc but that comment about the seals had me worried from the pics! I'll see for sure when it arrives tomorrow.
An easy way to check if the phone is fake is to record an 8K video at highest available fps. Either the fake phone simply cannot do it, or the quality of the video will be awful.
These companies are making and selling fake phones at a significantly high margins and the cost of production is also low for these phones. They don’t have to spent money on advertising, R&D and all other things. These things will be covered by the original company. I think that is why they stick to fake phones.
Wouldn't be surprised if there is some collaboration from actual legit phone making companies already. The bottom line is always Profits! Using each and every loophole to legally rake a buck.
@@DMalek I've actually owned some of these fake phones and most cost $200 or less. The customization features are normally better on the Chinese phones, hard to explain without a video, but changing the ui, the keyboard, the way the screen swipes, how to get to the command center and the animations it plays, the color flashes and notifications, there were SOO many options. I had Android users thinking I had an iPhone and iPhone users thinking I had an iPhone running a modified OS. It looked like an iPhone but was running a funky Android OS. I loved that phone, but I dropped it and shattered the screen. 😕 But legit, a lot of them are great. Check out the Xiaomi Poco X5 Pro. Not a bad phone for the price, and most Chinese sites have it marked down by $100 or so, so whatever the review price they list on TH-cam, you can normally find it half off on actual sites (which is what I did).
It would probably be the slowest piece of garbage though, since the official OS that ships with the real S24 Ultra is designed with much better hardware in mind. Also, there might be issues and incompatibilities with drivers and stuff.
Wow, we're at the point where even a phone repairman doesn't remember what a microSD card slot looked like. The phone manufacturers really has done it, they've successfully killed the idea of user replaceable/upgradable storage.

Man, too late for me. I was scammed by an even better fake a few days ago, on monday, and lost 800 Euros. Mine had paper seales like the real one and even the writing on the seal was there. It also has IMEI 1 and IMEI 2 written on the packaging and they even made a fake receipt. I feel so dumb and my money is gone. Still thank you for this video and if you want pictures of my fake device and packaging just write me a pm.
I had a customer in my store that came in with a 1TB version, asking to help with her transfer. I noticed right away that it was a fake phone, and it was even reporting that the system was taking up over 600gb. My coworkers and the customer were fooled, but once I opened the camera app, there was no denying it.
The camera lenses pressure test and the android animation saved me from buying a fake one. Also when taking a picture with the fake one in the dark was another dead giveaway. Thanks for the tips🤘🏼
1:27 I recently got an S24 Ultra, and the box DID have that text on the peel. However, it could be a later revision, or it could be a regional difference as I live in the UK.

There's a psychological side to it. I can confirm the feeling just isn't the same when you're unpacking a dupe, compared to an authentic, handcrafted piece. For me, its like a journey; opening the package, then the box, taking off the paper, layer by layer, smelling the leather... Ahh, you just CAN'T beat that! The only problem is your wallet is a lot thinner afterwardsEven though i've experienced both scenarios, i still end up buying a kislux .
I still love my LV reverse monogram kislux clutch! It's versatile, fits a variety of items, and is definitely a workhorse! I think seeing it everywhere (like the LV speedy) is proof that it's already a classic.
One dead giveaway would be to connect it to some kind of external display. On real samsung fold/flip/S series it will mirror the screen and also allow you to use Samsung Dex. On the fake one they would have to try really hard. Also some settings in the fake one would show the old android UI if you look for something that isnt used that often (like VPN, etc.), this is usually more funny with the fake iphone showing old android ui.
"Stop asking where I get these fake ones, because scaming people is bad" that is exactly why we want to know, so that we don't go there 😂😂😂 you think we want fake phones???
actually there is a easy way to determine whether it is fake or real phone , when you check the camera module , the real phone camera module usually have a coating while the fake one have no and just look like a cheap camera
