Sharing photos - please be mindful of modem numbers - Luke - 02-07-2020

We're pleased that you guys are excited and sharing pictures of your phone. However, it is advisable to keep the caseback ON when sharing photographs of the phone, since a number of potentially sensitive numbers (notably IMEI) are etched on the metal cover of the modem.

If you are keen to show others the internals of the phone, then feel free to share this image. It looks identical to the inside of your phone.

If you already shared pictures with the cover off, don't worry about it; consider this a precautions post.
