How to check Cell Phones Quality Using IMEI - *#06# 

Most probably, mobile phone is the most used device by the people throughout the whole world. Couple of years ago the use of mobile phone was very limited. But today many users have more than one or two mobile phones.

And to meet the demand, manufacturers are producing their products in different places to reduce the cost. Sometimes mobile phones are produced in China, India or any other country where production cost is relatively low. And quality is also hampered for this reason.

So, in this post I am gonna show you, how do you check your mobile phone's quality using the IMEI number. 

IMEI stands for International Mobile Equipment Identity. It is a 15-digit number and may be found in the packet of the mobile phone. It may also be found by removing the back cover and it may be placed on the battery sticker. 

If you lose your IME number then you can find it by typing *#06# on your mobile screen. After pressing this code, you will see a 15-digit number immediately on the screen which is called IME number.

The number might be as below: 

3 6 9 3 9 5 0 1 2 3 5 5 6 7 8

Now look at the 7th and 8th digit. These two digits will ensure your phone's quality! 

• If the seventh and eighth digits are 02 or 20 this indicates your cell phone is assembled inEmirates which is very poor quality. (NB: Some Indian sets have this number) 
• If the seventh and eighth digits are 08 or 80 this indicates your cell phone is manufactured inGermany which is fair quality.
• If the seventh and eighth digits are 01 or 10 this indicates your cell phone is manufactured inFinland which is high quality. 
• If the seventh and eighth digits are 00 this indicates your cell phone is manufactured in Original Factory which ensures the best quality. 
• If the seventh and eighth digits are either 03/30 or 04/40, this indicates your phone is made inChina but its quality is good. But not good either as 00, 01 or 10. 
• If the seventh and eighth digits are 05 or 50 this indicates your cell phone is manufactured either in Brazil or USA or Finland.
• If the seventh and eighth digits are 06 or 60 this indicates your cell phone is manufactured either in Hong Kong, or China or Mexico.
• If the seventh and eighth digits are 13 this indicates your cell phone is assembled in Azerbaijan which is too bad. And it is also dangerous for health!
