The Chinese ones look EXACTLY like the original. Unless there are spotty details, like funny text. If you have a known good one; you can compare finishing.dempsey wrote:It looks exactly like an Apple one. Are the Chinese ones copies of Apple with exact or near-to-exact same appearance or are they different?
See if you were PROMISED a genuine Apple one. Print the page. Take it along. If it is an official Apple retailer you might walk out of the Apple shop with a new one. And if it's an Apple retailer who sold you a Chinese one, they can say bye-bye to their contract with Apple.If it's Apple presumably can just got to Genius bar with it even though it was bought from third party retailer online.
Otoh. I don't know how things go in the USA. We've only had a real Apple store for a couple of years here. And I haven't even taken a look... I always buy from a trusted, local official reseller, trying to keep them alive...
