IMEI Check by Phone Model

Pick the handset you are buying, selling or unlocking. Every page runs the same free check and adds what is specific to that model — where the IMEI lives on it, and which locks tend to matter.

Model pages exist because the practical questions differ by handset. Finding the IMEI on an eSIM-only iPhone is a different job from reading it off a SIM tray; a foldable shows two IMEIs and an EID; a budget Android sells cheaply enough that buyers skip the checks that would have saved them. Each page below covers the checker plus those specifics.

The underlying lookup is identical everywhere on this site and always free: enter the 15 digits, get the device, the worldwide blacklist verdict and the carrier-lock verdict on screen in seconds. If your exact model is not listed, use the checker on any page — the result depends on the IMEI, not on which page you ran it from.

Not sure which model you are looking at? That is one of the things the check answers: the first eight digits of an IMEI identify the make and model, so the report names the handset the number really belongs to. If that name does not match the phone in front of you, you have learned something far more valuable than a lock status.
