    I hate doing this because it will be corrected by manufacturers :
    On the sealed box
    - Look at the fonts of any real apple product.. they don’t change NEVER .. It’s a proprietary font of Apple.
    -The Barcode Numbers on the real box are wider and thinner and the seal line sits though evenly.
    - Serial numbers ending with 1059 (MagSafe) are made in Vietnam. 1NRC (MagSafe)made in China.. if you have these numbers and it says “wireless charging case” it’s FAKE
    - European models Usually have the “Apple distribution International..Ireland ..etc” But never have Foxconn (FCC) on the same box .
    On an opened box:
    -Try wiping the AirPods logo on the box with a wet white cloth. It should NOT stain the cloth or fade the logo nor creases
    On the AirPods
    - CE (European certification) is always on the left side and Serial number on the right.
    -FCC certification (USA, Canada ) meanwhile is on the Right and Serial number on the Left
    - The FCC or CE should be on the Airpods themselves .
    - Only on First time pairing out the box should NEVER !!!! Say “NOT YOUR AIRPODS (Pro or Max)” . It should read “ AirPods (Pro or Max) “ and a Big connect button (NOT A blue text)
    - Reset the AirPods after first pairing and see if all the features are available
    - Try replacing one side with a proven genuine AirPods or it’s Case from Apple and reset the AirPods with them together .. they should sync perfectly.
    THANK ME LATER.

    I have heard that the real one and fast way to check AirPods is to do it having 2 iOS devices connected to one Apple ID. You connect to first device (iPhone) and then if you could use it with another device with the same Apple ID without reconnecting - that means AirPods is original.
    Can you check it?
    Thanks.

    So guys one way to check if the airpods are real or fake..is to connect them with two devices..let's say..iphone and iPad (you have to be on both the devices with same Apple ID). And now try to switch between the two. The real ones will switch seamlessly. The fake ones won't because not connected to cloud.
    This is one way which I checked one piece which I came across. Apart from that, everything was cloned in fake one. Also with regards to Automatic noise cancellation and transparency mode, in fake ones, there is no difference in between the two modes. But then I read some users who didn't face any issue with the fake ones as well. So I guess some premier clones have ANC working well. Therefore my opinion is to check the device, try connecting with two devices and then switching them. Hope that helps !

    • @consumr
      @consumr  2 года назад +3

      First point about cloud is great! The second point about ANC may vary, mine have a different sound between settings even though the noise cancellation isn’t as good

    The only way to check your AirPods Pro authenticity: You can
    check if they're fake by shining a light under the lid of
    the AirPods case. If they have a number printed onto
    them or one black square on one side, then they're fake. If there are two
    black squares on each side of the lid, then they are
    real. I hope this helps!
    I almost fell a victim today everything else is the same the new fakes tick all the boxes🤞🏾

    If your expecting these to sound like the real ones you will be disappointed, bass is terrible and music doesn’t sound great. If your taking them for what they are a £20 pair of earbuds you’ll be happy enough there just as good as most in that price bracket.
    I’d strongly recommend these for more podcasts/RUclips content consumers because you can’t tell much difference big saving for you guys. For music lovers not great, then again the real ones are not the most amazing for music either I found Beats studio buds much better but stick out my little head to much.
    I bought these as a spare pair of earbuds that I don’t have to worry about. Use them for short journey to work and leave them in my bag, wet rainy days or when the battery is low on my beats. I’m happy with them especially for the money.
    If there going to be your main pair don’t do it. If you don’t have much money go with JLab or Sonys c500 are fairly cheap now.

    Put your phone flash light on the inside of the flip cover and you will see 2 objects in the cover one on the left and one on the right of the real Airpods Pro and only one object in the fake. I'm not sure what it is but it's another way to tell between the real and fake. Shows eazy in low light but can be seen in normal daylight conditions.

    One more thing to know if its fake or real:
    (Just by opening the AirPods Case)
    Real: When opening the case it flashes WHITE Light and also when you return the AirPods in the Case it does the same thing
    Fake: When opening the case you can only see Green Light turns on same if you retuen the AirPods inside, the WHITE light only turns on if you LONG PRESS the Button on the Fake AirPods
    HOPE IT HELPS

    i found one major difference that you can tell even in case when the fake are in real box, and this is very hard to fabricate on fake one, never seen it on youtube or personal on fake ones, just take out the ear bumps, there should be two rectangular CUTED holes that you can see thru, on fake ones it never entierly cut jut has same shape graved from inside of ear bumps to hold on airpods

    The back of the real box on the last line of the writing on the left side it says MagSafe and the fake doesn’t. Also on the side of the box that had the serial number there are two labels on the real ones and only one tag on the fakes.

    These are an improvement over the 1st gen buds. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxK5mc3yw4xA7Mf2j6k6n1Uqv_KUgrKdeM Pros: The fit is fantastic. This is the biggest plus. They stay in my ears when running and become unnoticeable. They are tight but comfortable. The sound quality is about the same as the 1st gen buds. They pair more easily with my LG G8 ThinQ and immediately reconnect when removed from the case. The sound balance is excellent, good but not overpowering base and clean mid tones and highs.Cons: The noise cancellation is good but perhaps a little less effective than the Bose ANC on the 1st gen buds. Passthrough mode as not as good as the 1st gen buds making it a little more difficult to hear conversations when in passthrough.

      the first, the space where the charging case comes in, on the real ones is like a cardboard texture, while fakes is plastic. Second difference is on the eartips, real ones come attached to a gap in the paper, fakes just fall or are inside a sponge. Finally, when paired, go to find my, and try to make them sound, if they dont, it’s fake.

    I recently bought AirPod Pros for $60 off of FaceBook Marketplace. When they arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to see that it had the pull tab, all documents, and everything was packaged neatly. (I previously had a pair of authentic AP Pros, so not hard to tell when the packaging is off).
    Here are a couple things I’ve noticed, after watching your video:
    - Doing a drop box test is a really good way to tell if the box is real or not. Apple has the dramatic, slow drop, while fake boxes will not. The boxes were specifically designed to create tension and a classy feel when revealing your new Apple product. ($60 box passed the drop test)
    - Testing the “Spatial Audio” feature on AP Pros can help figure out if they are real or not- most manufacturers will either have a crappy version of it or not include it in the headphones at all. (FB Airpods also passed this test)
    - The font that Apple uses is “San Francisco.” It is pretty classic, and is easy to tell when a factory just uses Sans Serif or another font instead.
    - The physical earbuds included with authentic Airpods are very soft; knock offs will use thicker, harder and stiffer buds.
    - Airpods have a “soft” click when closing the case. Knock offs usually are very clicky and don’t have the same hinge that makes the satisfying sound.
    - The real manual, safety guide, warranty and compliance info all have a glossy finish with gray text. As reflected in your video, most manufacturers have sloppy, darker font- this includes everything to the box, case, airpods, etc. Some fakes don’t even include a manual or bother spoofing the other three documents.
    - From what I’ve noticed, all fakes have the exact same serial number- the one on the fakes in your video. My mom bought my brother and I fake Airpods for Christmas a couple years ago and they both had the same serial number.
    That’s pretty much all I can think of, after comparing my recent purchase to your video Im 99% confident they’re real. Awesome work!

      I’d also check the appearance of the screen when it’s connecting, if the tray is plastic in the box it’s fake, and if the light is white or green when first connecting. Also the battery indicator jumping around is a dead giveaway.
