No.


You can check to see if it's activation locked here: https://www.icloud.com/activationlock/


And you can check the warranty status here: https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do


Although, the warranty doesn't do you much good as even if it is under warranty, the warranty is only valid in the country where the phone was originally sold. You can not get warranty service or support in Pakistan.

You realize you're responding to a post that's a year old? That the information my have changed in the intervening 12 months? That only one of those business lists iPhones?

A "person" is not an authorized source. There is no way to know the history of the phone, or where it is/was intended to be sold at. There would be no way to verify that information. The serial number could give you warranty status as stated earlier in this thread, but no way to identify if it is unlocked or not. The model number inside the phone would tell you where it was intended to be sold at, but the phone would have to be activated to do that. If you want to be especially sure about your phone, then purchase it from Apple or an Authorized reseller, in the country you want to use the device in.

There can be many checks to distinguish between original and fake iphone;

check which can perform to distinguish between the fake iPhone 6 and original iPhone 6 is the Touch ID feature. The Touch ID feature has been improved very much in the latest models like iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 that you can use it for mobile payments using the Apple Pay. If you find the Touch ID is not smart, you either have configured it poorly or it is a fake iPhone 6 in your hands.

Next time try reading b4 posting, ok?


this is the quote in which I replied to "Apple does not do business in Pakistan"


and following are the 2(1 in aug and other in dec) )https://web.archive.org/web/*/https://locate.apple.com/pk/en/sales/?pt=all&lat=3 1.54505&***=74.34068300000001) and it shows a 10 apple official suppliers


this site stores history of pages so you can see that there were 2 entries b4 "KiltedTim" post which was on "Jan 10, 2015"


now these 2 entries will redirect as with the case with some sites on "waybackmachine" so just click "x" on the left side of home button in chrome after it loads.
