I think I've bought a fake that the volume actually works And the it had good packaging! Sigh, will just be going with a magnet next time 😅 Much needed! Thank you!
And a really great ish you're doing on here RU-vid. Check out Marques Brownlee, he does what you do and i think you could pick up one or two tricks from his videos. Still, you're the first Nigerian tech reviewer I've seen and the dopest so far. So, without #FodaAdu 😂😂😂 (I really dig that FodaAdu....... Classic!)
The side hole tip was very useful! I bought some earpods at a shop to replace my half-broken ones and while the aesthetic / slight sound differences made me suspicious, I wondered if it might just be a shitty new model. However, covering up the side hole has no effect on the new (fake) ones, whereas my old earbuds immediately lose bass. Gamechanger!
Thanks man. I bought a fake airpod and I was very furious because it was quite expensive irrespective of it status. Wish I could get an original one with a 3.5mm jack this time. Nice work man 👍🏽
Thanks for this video, Fisayo, it's really helped a lot. We need more videos like this in some other gadgets too, so we can have more knowledge on fake and original devices. Kudos to you on this video, it's well explained. Please, make me that lucky winner to win this headphone, I'm a music lover and I really need it so badly. I would be so glad.
If not for this video, have been struggling had since to kn d fake from the Original, even all this big stores in Lekki sells this fake. Thank you so much sir Fisayo for this brilliant deferences
Happy New Year Fam! Thank you so much for watching 😊 Also note that the “Magnetic Test” at 2:04 also works to know an original Apple replacement charger. Did I miss something? Let me know in the comments 👇🏾👇🏾
Is this fake sign? "Assembled in Vietnam"? and the tip of the jack did not stick to a magnet? I bought yesterday in Apple Store. 😞 Edit: mine is 3.5mm jack
Just opened up a box of what turned out to be fake Earpods with a 3.5mm jack. :( So not exactly the same model as the one you show here. But you can tell they are made of cheap plastic with sharp edges instead of the smooth and rounded feel on the originals. The remote worked on mine. The cables getting creased and the trick of covering the slit on the pods to check the base where exactly as you described. And yea the sound was of course worse then on the originals.
Metro pcs sold me a fake earphones and then they said that the products are original,I compared them with my old earphones and there is a big different they did not refund my money
Cool stuff- do make a video on the 3.5mm jack EarPods as well- the knock off guys have mastered that one a lot better and I seen a few with the “Designed by Apple in California” inscription. People get ripped off easy with those
Fisayo, now you have to hire bodyguards. All the fake EarPods sellers are coming for you!!! 😂😂😂 Sha thank you for this Fisayo. P. S. After hearing the price of the original I want to win this Giveaway, kai
I bought earpods from beyond the box authorize reseller but it seems fake because I last used the earpods in 2015 and the quality is different in the year 2023 the wired is different compared to 2015 earpods
When I block the vertical bar on my 7plus EarPods the bass lowers , but I don’t have the designed in California inscription ,keep in mind the earpod came in a box from Canada . Why?
Yo! Its really refreshing to see a truly classy nigerian review. Our very own mkbhd! Thumbs up Fisayo. Quick question. Can i know what monitor you are using in the background. Thanks
Bought mine from a random store didnt rlly care if it was original or not bought it for $30, i thought mine was a gimmick but then watching your video made it clear as day that its original!!! How lucky am i?😂
You guys may not believe a word I'll say but trust me. It was couple years ago i was going on a trip with my school. We all got into the bus into our seats and guess what I found on the seat. Yep original apple airpods. I still have them to this day but i don't have an iPhone to use them so I'll just have them around.
Man I paid 7500 in our country price for earpod but it didn’t have the letters written on it but it still attached to the magnet am I get scammed plz anyone help me this is real or fake 😔😔😔
I like this video a lot, thank you. We need more videos on this subject. Sadly there is more than one type of fake, so some do have the writing on the cable and many fakes do not have the reversed Apple logo. The magnetic lightening connector and blocking the bass ports are new to me, so I am happy to learn that.
Bro I just bought fakes they had exactly what you said now I went back to the same store and he gave me real ones and the differences are real I bought the fakes for 8€ and the real for 18€
Bro u cant copy the exact apple logo that's, it is copy right, if u do all hell will break loose, that is the reason the apple bite is on the other side of the apple.
Haha same. I bought a used iPhone on eBay. It came with earpods. Turns out they are fake. Volume buttons don't do anything and no apple logos! Oh well they still work and if/when they fail I'll get some fake air pods maybe lol
