iPhone 15 Pro Max iPhone 15 Serial Number decoding

[cc999]

Now that my phone has shipped (and others) you can get the serial number of your device by viewing the invoice on Apple site. Does anyone have a reference to what each character refers to on this years model? Previously you can determin manufacturing site, date manufactured etc...

Any help would be appreciated.

Apple switched to a randomised serial number a couple of years ago. As far as I am aware only Apple knows what it means

Back in mid 2021 Apple started switching to randomized serial numbers that no longer include manufacturing or configuration details.

No longer possible to decode as the serial number is randomized.

So it's not possible to find last batch of iPhone 15 pro max by serial number?
Cause I have problems with screen-frame gaps(lust of paper goes in in diff parts of screen-frame)and front glass goes higher/deeper....in apple store service said it is factory fault and need service/change

No, serial numbers are randomized and you can't determine any configuration or manufacturing information from them anymore.
