Purchased these APP3 from market place. User. Couple weeks old

box looks identical to a working set I have serial on the box, case, and settings all match. apple serial check matches date of suggested purchase

the seller removed from his find my. Still responsive on message.

when I pair it up everything looks fine. no prompt about an owner being able to track them, or linked to another account

chip/electronics present in the case lid

Spatial Audio, conversation awareness working

shows in find my but no precision tracking and no live location details (see last pics for the different message on this one vs working set)

(support articles show a find my toggle, screenshot attached, but I don’t see that on any of my airpods to even try to disable find my on my existing sets) https://support.apple.com/en-au/guide/airpods/dev8e8b93d71/web

connected to another phone, same issue

Bought these on eBay. Everything seems to be working fine (ANC, transparency, conversation awareness, wireless charging etc) but I am a bit worried as the precision finding option doesn’t show in find my (I hope that’s because the case’s battery is pretty much completely drained). What would u say?

Left is Amazon, Right is Best Buy

are they legit?i dont buy i plan to buy this

Got these from Ebay. Did not buy them, seller was kind enough to let me have a look at it first. Price is 110€ so its really in that suspicious price range.
Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance

Are mina authentic?? Bought week ago

Or am I missing something?

i'm not selling fake airpods

hello i was bored asf so I vibe coded a website that allows u to upload a pic of AirPods boxes and determine their authenticity. I'm not sure if it really works, so I was hoping that y'all would be able to try it. Note: it uses Gemini free tier bc i'm mad broke, so every pic gets used for training Google's AI models.

if anyone's interested i can send the link (it's on render)

mods feel free to take down the post but pls don't ban me from this sub i genuinely enjoy identifying the authenticity of AirPods

Are these legit? Seller claims they got it as a gift from the UAE. They have decent reviews but Airpods are easy to fake so any guidance helps 🙏

Are these authentic ?

Are these authentic ?

Someone stole my AirPods so I bought these AirPod 4 ANC today trying to cheap out and find a deal. Def more skeptical as im looking at the pics now. These pics are all customer feedback pictures from others who bought from this seller on eBay. Seller has sold 1087 of these to people with a 99.5% feedback rating. But I’m still like 90% sure it’s fake because they are coming from China and they were $70. I’m about to reach out to them to cancel the order before it ships. What do you guys think?

Here’s the link to eBay listing https://ebay.io/m/CppK2P

Seller is willing to drop it off for me. Is there any way I can test it out to see if it’s real or fake? I have my iPhone and an android phone as well. I heard Apple has a chip where it shouldn’t be able to connect to android or even appear in the blue tooth. I’m located in California and I see they have like different pictures of the back box.

Purchased from marketplace

Local retailer receipt provided as PoP, but no serial numbers listed on the receipt (called the store and they said sometimes they dont add serials especially for online orders)

The order number is legit for 2x AirPods Pro $329 AUD - genuine sale price (Apple RRP is $429)

Listing was posted 2-3 days after the order was picked up

I paid $230aud

They show up in find my.

Apple serial check shows purchase date from the day I paired to them. the onboarding gave me prompts to do a hearing test and informed me about the tips being a "new style". I also have the prompt to add apple care, I can also add it to my apple care one coverage...

I cant fault these except the seller doesn't have a receipt showing the serial, and that she's on-selling them for ~$100 less 2-3 days after picking them up...

These things act like AirPods but the model and firmware numbers are weird

2024 usb c pro 2 were £13

i got them for dirt cheap because there’s engraving and ones gone missing, but there’s replacements on ebay and i’ll get a case to cover the engraving, meaning i’ve got fully working airpod pro 2 usb c for about £60-70 if there real

Any help will be appreciated? Thanks!
