Basic questions for the S23

CATS10 — Wed, 18 Oct 2023 18:47:19 GMT

1.) What & where is IMEI?

2.) Does the S23 come w/ automatic warranty (I'm sure it does?) I wasn't there @ purchase.

3.) What does UI one stand for? What's it do?

4.) Did you purchase insurance for your phone? What type?

Swipe down and click on the gear ⚙️ go all the way down to about phone and it should be there. I believe it comes with a limited year warranty but make sure you register it!! UI stands for user interface. It is the point of contact between humans and computers. Any technology you interact with as a user is part of the user interface. For example, screens, sounds, overall style, and responsiveness are all elements of UI.

Not to discourage you, but this is everything that you could've googled. And insurance is super important for expensive phones especially if you're one to either break or lose them

@CATS10 IMEI is essentially the serial number of the phone. It stands for International Mobile Equipment Identity. You shouldn't freely give this number out.

Dear Puti, 🙉 Please forgive my apparent laziness. I agree whole-heartedly. I acted under the assumption that the Community was a friendly shoulder to lean on. I only just joined and in the future I will struggle worrying about the qualifying validity of my posts. Thank you for your tip about insuring my phone, I appreciate your time.

Dear Ambassador LongHiker, thank you for taking time to spell out what IMEI actually is. I wondered and didn't want to appear sooo ignorant. Truth is, some folks in my age group haven't a clue about technology. I am surely at the top of this class.
I thank you for the safety tip re: sharing said identity. I'd of never known and more than likely given it to anyone who sounded official.
Thanks again!😊
