Iphone X "new" with expired warranty date?

Hello, so I bought an Iphone X "brand new" from a non-official store. The warranty date and coverage is expired, and also the headphones that came with it had a very noticeable delay while using it and in the bluetooth conection said "Baets"!?

Also the charger was not the classic square one, it was the rectangle shaped one (wich I've never seen in a brand new iPhone box, neither in almost every unboxing video).

I'm almost sure that the store sold me an used iPhone as new, but I want to know your opinions to be 100% sure so I can ask my money back. Thanks!

iPhone X, iOS 13

If your purchased from a “non official” store it is quite possible that the warranty would be expired. The warranty period begins on the first day of original purchase. In this case it would have started on the day the store purchased the iPhone.

I checked in the Apple page and yes, the warranty is expired. It could still be "new" or at least not used?

Also, when I did a device verification in 3uTools, the battery serial number didn't matched with whe Factory values and it said that the battery may be changed. What do you think?

Yes, it could still be un-used with an expired warranty. Any sites that claim to know the status of components in an iPhone should be disregarded.
