Very often people refuse from buying iPods at official Apple dealers. It is explained by their impossibility to do that (may be there are no Apple shops at their city) or just by their wish to save some money. But everybody should know that purchasing non-official Apple products can even lead to more expenses and ruin smb’s good mood. So here are some Apple iPod hidden features that can show it’s real.
First of all one should know that Apple offers free service (if the customer act according the warranty conditions).
Chinese fakes
Now there are Chinese iPod fakes at the market. They are very similar to real iPods and only a person who has the company’s iPod can distinguish that fake. The most probable case to buy the imitation is to do that at various radio markets or at places where salespeople palm off.
Advantages and disadvantages
A very low price at the market (lower than the advisable Apple retail price on 40-60%). Similar to iPod.
Those walkmans have nothing in common with iPods. They have only similar appearance. It is an absolutely another walkman inside.
Textel walkmans
A good example of such walkmans is Textel walkmans. They can be good reliable walkmans but unfortunately they won’t have the huge number of advantages that iPod has.
Advantages and disadvantage of such walkmans
The price is 20-30% lower than iPod price.
These walkmans have nothing to do with iPod that’s why they can make many inconveniences to you wishing to have all the iPod hidden features.
Support manning
Official iPods have the warranty of a year but if there are deep scratches they don’t offer the warranty repair with the arguments of “mechanical injuries”. Sometimes iPod has waste but that happens 0.1% times. Other complains are explained that the customers couldn’t cope with iPod functions and options. These questions are decided very quickly by phone.
Ipod really has the world warranty. It means that if you have bought your walkman in the USA you can easily repair it in Germany. But you should obligatory save the counterfoil to prove your purchase.
Summary
1. It is not recommended to buy the walkman at the market or in the company that has no office..
2. Taking into account that iPods break very often (more than 0,1% of waste) you can save a little buying your walkman abroad but you should OBLIGATORY specify the warranty repair availability at your shop assistant.
