Chosen Solution

after opening a previously owned (and no battery) iphone 7 plus PRODUCT RED I noticed it wasn’t the same internally as the iphone 7 plus I just refurbished, replaced a cracked screen and battery. this phone has a open slot above the sim card slot and no taptic device… Buttons an cables …

Fake. No iPhone has ever had a memory card slot.

Sorry pal, but there has never been an iPhone manufactured with a micro SD card slot, but Android and Linux based phones typically do in some occasions if you would like to have a phone with a micro SD card slot.

No. But there are two versions of iPhone 7p (intel and qualcomm). If you looked under a microscope you would see some but not all of the chips are in different places. The connectors however would all be the same. But an SD card slot? Definitely fake.
