iPhone 13 Pro Confused about my 13 Pro Model Number

[kenan24]

Hello all,

I recently purchased an iPhone 13 Pro and noticed that the model number is not one of the standard ones like M, N, F etc. My model number is 3K555LL/A. Can anyone provide any insight on what this model number means and if it's a valid iPhone 13 Pro model?

Thank you in advance.

It's a store demo unit.

This thread suggests a 3 or a 5 is a demo unit.

Anything starting with a number is a demo. You can visit a store to confirm.

Is there anything wrong with those phones, I don't have official resellers around me so I can't go in store and talk to an Apple representative easily.

No idea. I'll let somebody chime in. Could be repair eligibility or future activation issues.

I don't have the device in hand right now but when i enter Apple Support and check the phone this comes up

Looks like you are set... You can purchase AppleCare to add to the original warranty.
That would not be possible, unless Apple accepted the serial number as a valid iPhone.
That should settle at least part of your question from your OP.

Store demos “Can” be reset & sold. Often, they’re just stolen so… kind of a mixed bag. Personally I would only buy one directly from the store it came from.
