How to identify the authenticity of the original iPhone battery? The following is the method I compiled for you to identify the authenticity of the original iPhone battery. Welcome to refer to it ~ How to identify the authenticity of the original iPhone battery

Here is a list of the capacity and model of the original iPhone battery. You can refer to it, and remind everyone that when a third party repairs and replaces the original battery, be sure to compare the capacity to avoid being deceived.

The above briefly introduces the battery capacity of various iPhone models. Now let’s talk about the popular science and identification of iPhone batteries.

First, let’s analyze it from the appearance. There are words on both sides of the original iPhone battery. The font color is not pure white, but white with light blue. One side has the factory serial number and QR code of the battery, which are all spray-painted using inkjet coding technology. The writing is clear and obvious spray points can be seen. The factory serial number and QR code of non-original batteries are printed similar to a seal and can be easily erased with your finger or eraser. (As shown in the picture below)

The batteries marked in blue are original batteries, and the batteries marked in red are non-original batteries.

In addition, the back of the cable interface of the original battery has a sponge cushion pad. To prevent loose contact between the interface and the motherboard (some high-imitation batteries also have sponge pads, you can directly compare them with the sponge pads on the original batteries you removed when choosing to replace the batteries. They are very different from the cotton pads on the original batteries. obvious difference). Here is a detailed explanation: Some non-original batteries also have original sponge cushions, because the cables used in the process of assembling the battery are the disassembly cables on the original battery. This type of battery is one of the ones to be introduced below. This kind of high-imitation battery has obvious traces of artificial welding on the battery's PCB board and battery cables only after being disassembled. But if there is no sponge cushion, it must be non-original. (As shown in the picture below)

The red on the left is the original battery cable interface and the original sponge pad, and the blue on the right is the non-original battery cable interface

Comparing the front of the battery, you will see Easily tell the difference between original and non-original. As shown in the figure below, the Apple logo on the original battery will be a little higher, and there is the 60950 battery certification standard below. This standard includes certification countries, certification projects, and testing standards. For example, the battery below is used in the iPhone 6 plus model. The certification country is Thailand, the certification project is TISI, and the testing standard is TIS 2217-2548 (2005). Non-original batteries have not been certified, so there is no certification standard. In addition, the original batteries use colloidal electrolytes, so the battery will feel soft when you pinch or break it with a little force. This is normal. On the contrary, it is abnormal if the battery feels hard and has no deformation when you pinch or break it.

The blue on the left is the original battery, and the red on the right is the non-original battery.

The above content is to distinguish the original and non-original batteries based on the appearance and shape of the battery. The following picture is from the battery disassembly. to further differentiate. The difference between the two batteries can also be seen from the internal circuit board of the battery in the picture. The one on the left is the original battery, and its PCB is from UMT (Taiwan Xinxing Electronics). It is clearly marked and the fonts are complete and neat, while the one on the right is not I believe you can identify the problem by marking and comparing the PCB board of the original battery. And from the artificial markings on the chip, it can be seen that it is an assembled circuit and not an original one. In addition, after disassembling some non-original batteries, you can even see that the components on the PCB board are different from the original ones, with obvious welding marks. In addition, non-original battery cables will feel softer when held, while original battery cables are relatively hard and difficult to deform.

The ones marked in blue are original batteries, and those marked in red are non-original.

Also, look at the production date of the battery. For example: iPhone5S batteries are basically from 2013 and 2014. They are produced around the world, and those in 2016 are basically imitation batteries or assembled batteries. In the same way, other models can also choose this identification method to make a simple preliminary judgment. There is a difference of about 1 year between the battery production age and the machine's launch. You can refer to this interpretation of 5S to estimate. If the difference is too long, the battery is non-original. Next The red marked one on the right side of the picture is a 5S non-original battery.

The batteries marked in blue are original batteries, and those marked in red are non-original.

Summary: There are the following types of counterfeit original batteries on the market.

1. Refurbishment of the original disassembled old battery

This kind of battery has been refurbished by special means and has no obvious difference from the new original battery, and the memory chip of the battery has also been replaced with a new one. So just looking at the data is zero cycles, but the standby time after installation is very short, and the battery will not work after about half a year of use. This kind of battery is difficult to identify based on its appearance and feel, and problems can only be discovered during use.

2. Substituting high imitation batteries

Use domestic electric board cores and assemble them with the outer packaging and wiring of Apple batteries. Of course, the packaging of this battery is different from the original packaging. It is just made to imitate the original. Most of the text on both sides of the packaging is printed normally, so the fonts are white without a light blue luster. In addition, this kind of battery board does not use colloidal electrolyte, so the battery feels hard when pinched by hand, unlike the soft feeling of the original battery.

3. Third brand of original battery + stickers

Some merchants will choose original batteries, add privately designed trademark stickers, and package the entire battery for sale, which reduces the cost. It will be more expensive than high-imitation batteries, so the price of this kind of battery is also higher, but the original battery is stronger in reliability and safety than high-imitation batteries, and this kind of battery can also be used. But not all high-priced brand batteries are made of original batteries with stickers, so you need to carefully identify them.

Finally: It is recommended that you choose to replace the original battery. I won’t say why. You know, I would like to remind everyone that Apple batteries are lithium polymer batteries and have no memory effect. Therefore, whether it is just When you buy a new phone, you don’t need to charge it thoroughly every time. That means you can charge it as much as you want. You don’t have to charge it when the battery is very low. It is recommended that you only need to fully charge and discharge it once or twice a month.
