Before activating your phone, check the serial number here - link

It should not be activated, after you turn it on and start it should show the warranty coverage in the same link.

Received my phone couple of hours back. 

Point to note, for some reason, idk, the order was not showing - OBD. The courier guy showed his app also and there is message mentioned in the out for delivery in customer app - I could not see that also in my app. Only OTP was required.

I just said to him, it's showing for me and resisted a little bit. He was kind enough to say - "I know this is iPhone, this is 3rd delivery since morning. I could cancel, but since I know everything is right, I am opening this."

I checked the phone quickly and shared the OTP.

I really don't know how this happened. But anyway, updating my all brand new iPhone 13- blue to iOS 16.0.2 right now. Cheers smile

But since we are getting 1 year warranty by using the bill, does it matter if it's shown activated? Will Apple not consider our Flipkart bill?
Want to understand more on the warranty coverage fine prints.

If the link shows activated (Shouldn't happen with FK affiliate sellers), then it is Refurbished / Returned / Repackaged unit. Apple might still offer 1 year warranty based on the purchase date but why take a risk.. these devices could be faulty?

The seller names are unheard actually. I placed two orders and cancelled one of them. The seller of the order that I cancelled was 'Treasure haul online' and the one that is confirmed is by 'NGIVR Retails'. ..Don't remember having heard of these sellers before

Third party sellers don't sell iphone 13 @ 50k.  NGIVR Retails is one of the many new FK's own affiliates and for prev activation check the service and support coverage link in the above posts

Basically all the sellers mentioned in this thread are genuine. For me also NGVIR Retails. People are so obsessed with TruecommRetail just like appario in Amazon. Amazon also introduced new genuine sellers. People who are ordering regularly can make this conclusion.
