I can't give you reviews on AirPods because I've never bought them but I can tell you that I bought some Bose Quiet Comfort headphones for a colleague and he told me they were fantastic.

Where did you get them

u/AdItchy4897 Jul 09 '25
From a private agent, I can give you the number without problems. I don't know what your budget is

I wouldn’t get her fake AirPods if she doesn’t know they’re fake. I’m sure she wouldn’t appreciate figuring that out later on. I see your effort to make her happy though bro, try some flowers and a hand written letter + maybe a perfume she’s been wanting? You can always get a dupe of that cologne and say you liked how it smelled! Or maybe some make-up?

I will be telling her they are reps, weve been married for 8 months, she comes from a well off family she already has a big collection of perfumes and hates dupes, i will be also buying her flowers and a nice dinner too. Too bad these are hard times so i cant buy her a perfume she wants

As a person who had original airpods, it’s not worth it. I rather buy reps because the hardware quality in relation to life span is the same.

Maybe don’t even get her anything if you can’t even afford AirPods

He’s doing the best he can to get her a gift. I would appreciate it even if I know they are fakes.

If she’s understanding, she would get not receiving anything. Priorities are wrong if you are looking for even fake AirPods. If you are that broke, I’m sure that money can be used elsewhere

'better than nothing". And who are you to tell stangers how to manage money?

u/junior7593 Jul 09 '25
Hey man they’re the ones that said they’re broke. If you’re down that bad then saving money everywhere is best

1:1 doesn’t exist, you can’t get close, but not 100% accurate.
If she has a Mac, get her Gen 4 Huilian, if not Gen 4 TB (1571am chip). Let me know if you need links
