Even sellers are having a hard time distinguishing between the new phones that look identical to each other.

Yiğit Aytekin, who works in the phone business in Eskişehir, stated that the similarity in appearance of new models is a topic of discussion, but the hardware features differ in each device.

In recent years, the similarity between phone models has attracted attention. This situation has become a topic of discussion among social media users as well as among tradesmen and customers, to the point that even some models cannot be distinguished by phone sellers just by looking at them. Phone tradesman Yiğit Aytekin, who made evaluations on the subject, expressed that this situation is especially evident in major brands and noted that sometimes they cannot differentiate devices without looking at the model codes. Aytekin pointed out that sometimes the colors of the models are even the same, emphasizing that despite all the similarities, every new phone shows hardware differences.

“Sometimes we can’t even tell the phone apart by looking at the back or front”

Tradesman Yiğit Aytekin said regarding the issue, “The external appearances of the phones look alike. This is especially the case with the larger models of major brands, but there are certainly differences in features. There is a unique touch on the camera, a separate one on the processor and the screen. In other words, they develop the products a bit more and present them back to the market as different models. Sometimes, the colors of the products are the same too. Sometimes we can’t even tell the phone apart by looking at the back or front. Because they have made the appearance the same. For this reason, we sometimes try to understand by looking at the model codes of the product. There is also a conversation about this between us and the customers. When a new model of a brand comes out, they can say, ‘This is the same as the other one.'”
