Doesn’t sound like it’s hidden anymore

The video shows someone shining a UV light on the iPhone 15 box to reveal watermarks and a QR code that helps verify device authenticity.

Still hidden outside of the visible light spectrum.

Makes counterfeiting just a bit more difficult. Like when money started having this. Where I lived getting one of these uv flashlight to check notes was very common back then.
