iPhone IMEI Check: Warranty, SIM-Lock & Carrier
Free IMEI check for iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch: model, warranty, purchase date, SIM-lock, carrier and country – by IMEI or serial number.
Full iPhone check by IMEI or serial number
The iPhone IMEI check shows the exact model with color and storage, the estimated purchase date, warranty and AppleCare coverage, SIM-lock status and carrier, the country of purchase and whether the device is a demo, refurbished or replacement unit. Find My status is shown on ad-free plans; everyone else gets a link to the free iCloud check.
Add the serial number together with the IMEI for the most complete report. Before you buy a used iPhone, use this check to see if it is original and unlocked, then run the free iCloud check for Activation Lock.

How do I check an iPhone by IMEI?
Dial *#06# or open Settings › General › About, copy the IMEI, paste it on this page and press Check.
Can I check an iPhone by serial number?
Yes. Enter the serial number (10–12 characters) instead of the IMEI. You can also add both for a more complete report.
How do I know if an iPhone is original?
A genuine iPhone returns its model, color and storage exactly as shown in Settings › General › About. A different model or no result is a warning sign.
Does it show if the iPhone is unlocked?
Yes. The report shows the SIM-lock status and, for a locked iPhone, the carrier it is locked to.
Is the iPhone IMEI check free?
Yes. The check is free and needs no registration. Guests get several free checks per day; registered accounts can raise the limit and turn off ads.
Is it safe to share my IMEI?
An IMEI identifies the device, not you. It cannot be used to unlock the phone or access your data. Do not share passwords or your account login with anyone.
