There are many things to be considered while purchasing an Oppo smartphone, both new and a used one from Buy/Sell websites like OLX or Quikr. You must first check the Oppo Warranty on their official site to verify the authenticity of the device. We will guide you on how to check the Oppo smartphone, which you own is legit and not a counter-part of the company.
When we purchase a smartphone online, we have the guarantee of the product being new because it is in sealed condition and bought from a reputed website like Amazon or Flipkart. But, when we purchase the smartphone from some offline vendor or retailer or maybe from someone who used it before, then we must always check the warranty of the device for a fair deal.
Checking the warranty of the device gives self-satisfaction as well as the product value. It also helps in verifying the product being genuine, as many Chinese made smartphones are clones of Oppo smartphones. They look the same, have the same features, and even have the Google Play Store. But when the device has some technical issue, and we head to the service center, then we are told about the authenticity of the product.
To prevent from getting scammed from such instances, we must first check the Oppo warranty online officially. Please follow the guide below and check your Oppo warranty as well.
