Please, guys, i need your help. I should get s23 today. How do i check that brand new s23 ultra is not fake without or before setting it up? I noticed most of these tips in this video were performed from a phone that has been setup. I need a tip that can help me to discover that it is/not fake before i make payment. Thanks.
Most of the fake phones come from China not Vietnam most of the phones from Vietnam are legit 90% of the phones coming from China if they are sold at ridiculous low prices you're obviously getting a fake phone with much lower specs than what they advertise 😊
I got the green S23 ultra also thanks I just ran the check all.my information matches up perfectly another thing try the 100x moon zoom a fake wouldn't be able to zoom in that far Great video tho😁😁
Thanks for sharing I'm going to run these checks when I get mine in 5 days my girlfriends dad got cammed on eBay with a s22 ultra last year she lost £900
i feel your pain man i got scammed too with a note 20 ultra from some guy in the street never again if its too good to be true dont buy it just go to a lagit store make the purchase and get a receipt
Thanks for this video, I did all the checks except the download mode and I'm reasonably convinced that the phone is legit! Now to check whether it will actually work in South Africa, because apparently it's from Singapore
Sorry, but they are now so good spoof anything, I am lucky almoust was scammed. Everything was matching serials, and emei provided receipt, but inside fake copy no 120hz lagging only noticed by software was something not right and cancelled deal. If never had samsung before and present lost money. Hope this helps anyone. Never trust do homework before you buy not from trusted seller and most important if its too good too be true avoid.

My serial number is not on the box sticker for my S23+, and the RAM is not there. The info matches the phone engraving and IMEI in the software, but those things are missing and the sticker looks different than yours. Is that a potential problem?
Hmmm that's weird tell me this follow this video and tell me if u can get the phone to boot into download. Mode ua-cam.com/video/HpRN4HYNPDA/v-deo.html
so my phone passes all the tests but when i do the *#0*# it doesnt have gripsensor as an option does that mean its a fake ? also it says my phone was made in korea when i do the *#06# it shows imei2 that isnt on the box. but it has the 100x zoom it has the snap dragon chip and the imei matches everything
hi! I recently bought a second hand s23 ultra and it doesn’t have the photo of the phone on the about phone above the samsung s23 name but all the info here matches when I tried pls help
scammed 1000 times. imei is for motorola, and boot mode is false. cpu check, everything reads well, but on individual processors, only 2 processors show specs,(speeds). the rest it says zero. meaning phone has only 2 processors.
Mine doesn't have the sticker or writing on the back but it shows the correct processor. Also the download screen is all in foreign language. Box says 12g ram and the phone settings say 16g ram. Also when using smart switch it only transfers photos won't transfer apps. It also won't wireless chargee. Any ideas anone?
Thanks for the video. I recently viewed a fake S22 Ultra. The imei no, serial no, colour and model all matched up with the box and showed "clear" and matched on the internet check. There were no engraved details on the phone however. Other fake tells tale signs were that the seller pealed back the tamper proof seals which can't happen, and that the camera didn't show the zoom % and it was missing most of the features which the legit model has.
i bought mine from my deal and all the checks worked out but in the phone settings it says it has 8 gb ram but the box says 12gb ram somone help me out please
Its hidden because its information that cant be shown on the internet but just take your time and listen to what im saying and what im pointing at youll better understand
Its all info numbers that cant be shown just listen to the video and match everything up if i say the serial numbers should be shown at a certain points and i point my finger to the parts thats blurred thats what u look for its not hard just take your time
Hi there thanks for the useful info i followed all the steps and my phone passed the check list but the last stage phone didn't get in to download mode it displayed Factory mode instead. Does that mean my phone is fake?
@@TheRealAndroidDoctor also I did a IMEI search and the spec on the box doesn't match the spec from IMEI website search engine. It's said 512gb storage and 12 gb ram. HOWEVER, On IMEI website search it said 256gb storage and 8gb ram. They other spec were all correct tho. Could this be potential fake phone ?
I had to blur my phones personal information bro i dont want it on the internet people can do things with that type of info,however just take your time and pay attention if i tell u to match the imei number in the settings to the imei numbers on the box thats what u do if i type in the code on the dialler u obviously do the same then once again match up the numbers 👍
@@TheRealAndroidDoctor thanks, I tried but wasn't really sure how. My guess is it doesn't have 100x zoom, but to be honest with me not knowing enough about these phones I think the bezel is wrong...

Glad I could help
How much did you buy it?
This video and your comment just saved me from buying a fake s23 ultra yesterday. You practically saved my life😂 thanks🙌
Without the box, how can you check it out ? Please tell me .
BTW, bring your scale and weigh the phone. S23 Ultra should be 234gram in weight.
Imei number means nothing now, as some fakes even have valid imei.

Can you give more clarity on "fake copy no 120hz". Where we can see this and how did you observe ?
This phone is more then 1000$ in this price you can buy a gaming pc why you pay all this only for a phone?
What if i can buy both
Because not everyone wants a PC??

"8:39" - RAM Memory : 8GB !? What's that?
I also have s23 ultra made in Vietnam phone imei number and every thing same but when restart it's appeared logo of LGU+ logo is it original?
This phone would've fooled me. I didn't know that these fakes looked so real.
Mine doesn't have the sticker or writing on the back but it shows the correct processor. Also the download screen is all in foreign language. Box says 12g ram and the phone settings say 16g ram.

Damn that sounds like it could be a fake bro where did u buy it?
Definitely fake bro.
Got on marketplace so probably can't do anything about it
@@nbkblood did u try the 100x zoom using the camera?
Thats what i said definately a fake
When I want to turn power save mode it says demonstrate mode what that means?!!!!
Like your watch, what is it please?

@@mojiwilliams3882 what does this mean still samsung or fake?
Shame you've blurred everything out whats the point waste of time
Why is everything you’re telling us to look at actually hidden? How are we supposed to make a comparison with something hidden?
Its hidden because its information that cant be shown on the internet but just take your time and listen to what im saying and what im pointing at youll better understand
Why have youu blurred out so much? It's so confusing because I can't even see what I'm supposed to be looking for
Its all info numbers that cant be shown just listen to the video and match everything up if i say the serial numbers should be shown at a certain points and i point my finger to the parts thats blurred thats what u look for its not hard just take your time
Mine doesn't have sticker. But imei numbers are all correct
If I see just "Samsung Galaxy" not "Samsung Galaxy Ultra 23" is it fake?
It should say s23 ultra did u run all the other checks?
@@TheRealAndroidDoctor yes
You mean on the box?
why u hide all
Mine dont have Qualcomm, have Exynos so is it fake bro???
All s 23 ultra has Qualcomm snapdragon 8th Gen 2
There is no IMEI no is engraved on the back.
Is their a serual number or any other engraving?
@@TheRealAndroidDoctor Samsung is engraved. A white sticker at the back with serial no and all but nothing is engraved apart from SAMSUNG.
@@avroneelbiswas does everything else match up like shown in the video?
@@TheRealAndroidDoctor Yeah, IMEI, SERIAL NO everything matches.
