IF the digit number Seven & Eight is 13 that means it was assembled in Azerbaijan which is very poor quality and potentially very dangerous to your health!!! thanks

hi, is it true? because my nokia 7th and 8th numbers are 04, and i already consulted and checked it to the office of nokia, and they said its original,by checking of the serial numbers of my mobile phone.
