How To Tell If Your Airpods Pro Are Fake (Apple Airpods Pro A2083 February 2022)

Follow
Fake Vs. Real

6 ways to tell if your Airpods Pro are fake:
1. Box & packaging differences
2. Font on the packet of stickers & user manual
3. Weight of the case and Airpods Pro earbuds
4. Battery life of the Airpods Pro earbuds on a single charge (without putting them back in the case)
5. Battery display on the popup menu window on your iOS devices (I show an iPad but the same issues will pop up on your iPhone)
6. Sound quality overall, ringing noises, and how good the noise cancellation works

4 things that may seem suspicious but are not clear indicators of your Airpods Pros being fake:
1. If you check the serial number on Apple's website and it's not valid, then it's fake. But if you check the serial number it's valid, it does NOT mean it's always real. The good fake pairs also have real serial numbers
2. Having the popup menu on your iOS devices and the ability to turn on noise cancellation does NOT mean its for sure real, the fake pairs also are able to trigger the iOS popup menu and settings menu
3. The CE logo and FC logo are different depending on what country you're in, the CE is used in Europe and FC is used in the US. That doesn't mean anything
4. The "Assembled in China" or "Assembled in Vietnam" text can be different depending on what country it was made it, that isn't a clear sign it's fake either

There are a lot of these fake Airpods Pros for sale around the internet so just be careful. While they still work as headphones, it would be pretty unfortunate to get scammed by someone selling them saying they are real and trying to charge full price

Even though these Airpods Pro retail for $250, I wouldn't ever pay $250 for a real pair. They are almost always on sale, as you can see I was able to get them from Target for $175 but depending on when you check on Amazon or another retailer they are usually "on sale" between $170 $200

Looking for links to real Airpods? For US customers, I typically recommend grabbing them on Amazon (the ones that are shipped and sold by Amazon, not by 3rd party sellers), since they are cheaper than the retail price. Link below:
