what's happening everyone my name is alex and welcome back so a couple of months ago i made
a video showing you how to spot the fake apple airpods pro but if you check the comments under
that video there are so many people that get scammed every single day so there must be a lot
of fakes out there now if you're still trying to figure out if you have the fake ones or the
real ones definitely check out that video because there is a lot of good information in that video
that still applies um today and i will leave some links to that in the video's description or the
top right corner now the one thing i said in that video was the fact that the fake apple airpods pro
don't have real noise cancelling and that was an easy way to spot them well that kind of changed
with these ones so a couple of weeks ago i was looking online for some fake apple airpods pro
and i came across these ones and i paid about 62 for these ones and in the description there
it said they have real noise cancelling but i was skeptical i mean real noise cancelling for
60 dollars that doesn't usually happen so i got these a couple of days ago and guess
what they actually have real noise cancelling and they're even better than the last fake ones that
i had so spotting the fake ones has become a lot harder now that these have real noise cancelling
so everything starts with the box the box looks just like the original box but if you check out
my um previous video the one that um you're gonna find the video's description you're
gonna see some key differences when you get the boxes so the same um applies for this pair of
fake apple airpods product i have today so definitely check out um that video
inside the box we get the user manual the user manual is actually better printed than the last
copy that i had so the last fake ones that i had didn't have the best ink for the user manual but
with these ones we do get much better ink so once again harder to spot um that they're fake and
even the charging cable and the replacement tips look better on these fakes than they did on the
previous one so once again making it even harder to spot them the fake ones now if you check out
the serial number on the box the serial number on the box actually matches the serial number on the
case the charging case and the serial number on the individual um airpods as well and if
you check this serial number on apple's website more you can see this on the screen the serial
number shows up in there but it says that the purchasing date is not valid whatever that means
so i'm assuming that they actually copied the serial number from a real pair of um apple
airpods pro now what's even crazier after you pair these um to your phone if you open the settings
app on your phone and then you go to general and about the apple airpods pro so the fake ones that
i have here actually show up in there and the serial number in there matches the serial number
on the box and the on these i also opened that app called find my device or something that's some an
apple app and once again the apple airpods for the fake ones that i have here actually show
up in there which is kind of insane if um if you ask me i'm not even sure how they did that
but yeah you can actually find them and see where they are on the map
i don't exactly want to show you where they are on the map because well it's obviously my house
but um yeah they show up in there so i had to look at these ones multiple multiple times i wondered
maybe they sent me the wrong ones maybe they sent some the real ones by mistake but no these ones
are definitely fake so that's how good they are now looking at the charging case first of
all this supports some wireless charging so just like the original ones but there is one difference
here so if you look at the led here this lights up when you charge them or when you open the case on
the fake ones this actually looks darker so looks kind of black on the original ones it looks more
whitish so that is the only difference that i've actually noticed on the case here so look at that
led in there on the real ones it looks kind of white on the fake ones it looks kind of black
so that's one thing to know if you're looking at the fake ones or the real ones the actual
airpods themselves also look identical to the original ones but there is a small difference
that i've noticed and that has to do with the text that's on the airpods now maybe the text
is different depending on the region where you buy these ones but this is definitely different than
the airpods that i bought here in canada so this is the only difference that i could spot between
the fake and the real ones so the fake ones do look extremely real and pretty much impossible uh
to tell if you have the fake ones or the real ones they also have all those sensors that we have
in the original one so when you take one out of your ear the music will stop when you put
it back on the music will turn on back on and so on so they do have all the sensors as well
one small thing that i've noticed between the fake ones and the original ones is the message
that you get when you first pair these to your phones so when you first pair them to your phone
it says not your airpods pro so that message is different than the message that you would get on
the original one so that's definitely something that you should look for once they're connected
as the message is gone and you can't really tell the difference they show the battery life in those
widgets in there they show the battery life if you go on to your um quick toggles and stuff so
there is no way of spotting them after they are connected but the first time when when you first
connect them to your phone that's the moment to tell if you're looking at the fake ones or
the original ones and lastly noise cancelling so you turn on the noise cancelling on the fake ones
just as you would on the original ones so either from the airpods themselves or from the phone and
the noise cancelling actually works and you can tell the difference when you actually turn it on
and off so it does cut down a lot of the sound around you it's not as good
as the noise cancelling that you get from the original apple airpods pro but unless you have
the fake ones and the original ones side by side you're not gonna be able to tell the difference
so spotting the fake ones it is extremely difficult except for this little black um led here
well it's not black but the whole kind of looks um black so do yourself a favor instead of saving
on 20 40 bucks by buying the apple airpods pro from the facebook marketplace or some other shady
website buy the apple airpods pro directly from apple or an unauthorized reseller because that's
the only way you're gonna know that they actually have the original ones and you don't get the fake
ones because they don't have warranty you don't know how long the they're gonna work and so on
so that is my suggestion uh don't try to save that 40 50 bucks by buying them from somewhere
else buy them directly from apple that's really the only way to tell if you have the fake ones of
the original ones these ones are extremely good and they're fake and they're like 60 bucks alright
