Serial Number On Phone Box

For the past two years, Apple's iPhone line has been sporting glass backs devoid of any of the old legal warnings or information — at least in the United States. But that can make it harder to find out things like your iPhone's model number. Since different iPhone models support different carriers and bands around the world, if you're planning to use your iPhone in other countries, if you're interested in CDMA (Verizon/Sprint) compatibility, or you just prefer Qualcomm or Intel modems, it's important information to know.

Here's how to find it.

How do you find your iPhone model number?

Because, in some regions including the U.S., Apple doesn't prints model numbers and other information on the backs of iPhone devices that have a glass backside, you now have to look elsewhere to find it. You have two options:

  1. Pop out the SIM card tray and read the fine print.
  2. Look it up in iOS.

If you happen to have your SIM card tray out, you can look there. Otherwise, this isn't very convenient.

  1. Insert a SIM Card Removal Tool into the SIM Card pin slot on your iPhone.
  2. Push in to pop out the tray.

  3. Hold the tray up to bright light. Use a magnifier if you need to.

How to find your AirPods serial number on the case

Every AirPods case has a unique serial number: You can find it on the inside of the lid, above the left earbud. It's (no surprise) set in incredibly small type, and you might want to use your iPhone's camera to properly capture (and zoom in on) the serial number.

How to find your AirPods serial number on your iPhone or iPad

If you can't read the serial number on the inside of your AirPods case, you can also grab it from the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad. Here's how.

  1. Connect your AirPods to your iPhone or iPad. (This requires your AirPods have power and a Bluetooth connection; if not, you'll have to try and read the case's serial number instead.)
  2. Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
  3. Go to General > About.

  4. Tap on AirPods at the bottom of the screen. (If you don't see this field, double-check that your AirPods are connected via Bluetooth.)

Unfortunately, you can't long-press to copy your serial number to your clipboard, but you can manually write it down instead.
