1, what is parallel?
Parallel import is not a technical term. So there is no standard definition.
It is generally believed that smuggled goods that do not pay customs duties are parallel imports. Actually this definition is not accurate. What goods are sold by auction after being sealed up by the customs? I don't know. I think parallel imports refer to products that should not be sold in a certain country or region, but are sold in that country or region, or products that are not directly sold by authorized regular dealers. He has nothing to do with the place of origin, only with the place of sale!
2. Is there a difference between parallel imports and licensed products?
First of all, licensed products are guaranteed products that can be sold in Chinese mainland. Parallel imports are products that can enjoy warranty abroad (it is impossible to go abroad for warranty if smuggled in). If our licensed products are taken abroad, they are also parallel imports!
So there is no difference between parallel imports and licensed products. However, due to different networks, the functions will increase or decrease, such as W850 and W830.
3. What are the parallel imports?
Generally speaking, parallel imports are divided into Hong Kong Bank (Bank B), European Water (Water Reform), Malay Bank, North American Edition and so on.
As the name implies, the above four models are licensed in the above areas! But after arriving in China, it became parallel imports.
4. Where do parallel imports come from?
As we all know, almost all mobile phone brands in the world have factories in China, Nokia in Beijing and Dongguan, Samsung in Tianjin and Shenzhen ... so the licensed products are all made in China (except a few models). Take Sony Ericsson as an example. Hongkong Bank is produced in China.
5. What are the characteristics of Hong Kong banks?
Hong Kong banks are parallel imports.
Characterized in that:
First, there is no guarantee that it will be in the Mainland;
B, the appearance is the same as the licensed goods;
C. use traditional Chinese characters for labels and instructions;
D. Input methods include pinyin input and pinyin input.
E, the price is slightly cheaper than the licensed goods.
Bank of Hong Kong is also called Bank B..
6. What is water diversion (goods B)?
The name was invented by JS. There is no such thing. JS changed the label and shell of water reform to be the same as licensed products through various methods. In order to obtain higher profits.
To a certain extent, Fenshui can be regarded as a machine for water renovation and shell replacement, because no matter how to change the shell (or the label of the shell), it changes its original hardware state.
7. What are the disadvantages of water diversion?
A, it's not original parallel imports, so any problems may happen in the future. Common problems are: impersonation, system instability, dust on the external screen, machine looseness and so on.
B. Pretending to be licensed goods or selling them at high prices by banks in Hong Kong. In fact, the price of water diversion should be lower than that of pure water diversion because it is not original.
C, when there is a problem, it is easy to produce disputes.
8. What is water reform?
Water reform is a licensed parallel import in Europe and America after the software is sinicized (of course, there is no Chinese).
This kind of parallel imports are produced abroad, so the quality of hardware is not lower than that of licensed products. There may be some bugs in the original Chinese software. After improvement, it has exactly the same function as the authorized software.
Water reform is also called pure water.
9. What are the characteristics of water reform?
The shell of water reform is only Sony Ericsson, but ... the labels of batteries and accessories of water reform are all in foreign languages. The instructions are copied and the quality is rough. And it may not match the function of the mobile phone!
Generally, there is no charge for water reform, only line charges, because Europeans don't have to charge by seat. However, js usually comes with a garbage charger, which is generally not available.
10 and what are the parallel versions? what do you think?
Sony Ericsson Version Operation: * # 06 #
1 1. What is a fake?
Cheap goods are commonly known as diverted goods and refurbished goods.
12. Is the Bank of Hong Kong worth buying?
Not worth it. Reason: Generally, the price of Hong Kong banks is slightly lower than that of licensed goods, but the W 830 lacks a camera than the W 850, so the price is similar.
So there is a general saying that transportation is not as good as water (reform) and ports (transportation) are not as good as transportation.
13 and js may do something about parallel imports.
A. pass off fakes as good goods. This is easy to distinguish, as long as you eliminate the worship of licensed goods and know a little about parallel imports, you can distinguish it.
B. confuse the real with the fake. Fake batteries are more common.
14, how to distinguish refurbished machines?
A carefully look at the screen for traces, data cable, earphone hole, speaker hole and tape hanging hole for dust.
B carefully observe whether the battery lock of the fuselage has poke marks, whether the rotating shafts of the upper and lower covers have rotation marks, and whether the two protrusions of the upper cover have indentations.
C carefully check whether there are records in WAP, voice function and call record information function.
The shell depends on comparison (comparing brightness, uniformity, hue, granularity with the verified machine ...)
F smell, the new machine has sandalwood smell, which is different from ordinary detergent and perfume. The body can't have sticky wax and oil (if there is, it has been beautified by JS).
G carefully check whether the contact point between the SIM card and the battery of the fuselage has wear marks (distinguish the other contact points).
H. Check whether the joint gap of the shell is even, whether it is below 1MM, whether there are prying marks, and whether there are prying marks at the two sealing points under the screen in the upper cover.
I used the new machine to compare the elasticity of the keys and the brightness of the internal and external display screens.
J Look carefully at the fixed gong nail of the fuselage for rotary printing, painting and inking (you can use a magnifying glass) and prying marks on the trademark.
So that's it.
