If you know exactly where to look for, it's quite easy to identify (and FAST) what kind of iPhone model you have.

For example, mobile network operator might ask you for the exact model if you call in to report the "sim not provisioned mm#2" message.

In fact, these are the exact techniques that I used to quickly tell which iPhone do I have.

Let's dive right in.

Tip #1: How to Read iPhone Model Number from the Back of the Phone

No, it's not printed on the glass front.

For most iPhone models, simply check the model number printed on the back of your phone. 

It should read something like "Model A1549" in fine print (Capital A followed by numbers).

If you though - "Hey, that's easy!", this may surprise you.

Text is in so tiny print, you might be needing a magnifying glass or some extra light before you read it. Here's where to look:

Tip #2: How to Tell iPhone model number from the iOS settings

For newer models, simply check the model number under your iPhone settings. In fact, any iPhone 5S or later can also show the Model Name on display.

I'll cover that in a minute.

Remember that for older iPhones running iOS version older than iOS 12.2, you'll also need to use the model number list from our TIP #1 to match the iPhone model name with the model number.

For this tactic you need to make sure that your iphone is running.

Press home button, then launch the iOS Settings and navigate to General => About => Model (or Model Number). Tap once on Model to show the model number.

Step by step tutorial on how to know what is my iPhone model:

• Navigate to Settings
• Tap General
• Go to About
• Tap the Part Number

Once there, you will see the model number shown next to the part number.

Tip #3: Bonus Tip

In some cases, it is not possible to locate the iPhone type or model number on the back of the phone. And sometimes you cannot read it from the iPhone settings.

So what's the solution?

Employing the quick check I'm about to share with you in this guide.

On an iPhone 8 or later, you need to remove the SIM tray and look for the model number engraved in the SIM tray slot.

The exact same strategies and tips from this guide work for your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch ID. No matter if it's silver gold, rose gold, space grey, or silver space...
