How to check if my iPhone 12 Pro is original?

I want to make sure that this phone is good and I will not have any problems with it. I bought it recently and activated it, but I noticed that the model number starts with a number and not with a letter as we know in all Apple phones, and when I asked one of my friends, he told me that this type of phone is only manufactured for tests and not for use or selling, so I hope to hear from you. Thank you very much
