<\/a><\/p>\nStill asking yourself, \u201chow do I find out my phone model?\u201d Some phones have the model number printed directly on the back or inside the SIM tray. If you have an iPhone 8 or later, you\u2019ll find the model inside the SIM card tray. Older Samsung and Android phones may have the model listed under the battery (if removable).<\/p>\n
Use your IMEI or serial number<\/h4>\n

How to Find Your IMEI Number:<\/p>\n
