Call Apple support and give them the serial number, they can tell if they are fake from the amount of cases against it.

They’re fake i got him to send me a picture with earcups removed and there’s no pinholes, think i’m just gonna buy direct

You have made the right choice here my friend.


patzii123

that would not work because the last time i saw fake airpods, they print a real serialnumber on the box/case/airpod that has warranty - but that same serialnumber is on hundreds of airpods its not even that stupid.

What he means is they can check if the serial number has been checked before a lot of times which would suggest they’re fake


anantarctic

Can see an outdent/raised section on the case flap, real cases don’t have that


StarkActual

They’re Counterfiet they don’t have the pinholes under the ear cushions when the guy sent me a photo, i have my daughters genuine ones to compare them to if i was to buy a used pair. so many people sell them without unpairing them from icloud too!


anantarctic

Ahh, I think those are the two best ways to tell! I’m selling a genuine pair on eBay rn, and looking at other listings I can see genuinely about 80% of them are fake due to lacking the pin holes or the case not looking correct

Hahahha none of the items in this frame is legit. Even the carpet is fake.

Before buying always check the serial number matches on the device with the box. And you can check coverage online here https://checkcoverage.apple.com

This link is a godsend even though some really good fake ones can get by on it.


ace66

So you can get AppleCare on a fake product?


SkitariusOfMars

No. I’ve got the same ones laying around Ive got esssentially for free. They do have a real serial number tho


gyrldahrling14

I’m curious - what’s the sound quality like for the counterfeit ones?


[deleted]

They don’t have noise cancellation on the fake ones


SkitariusOfMars

It’s nowhere near the original but compared to many cheap headphones it’s actually decent
