When connecting to your iphone it says “not your aipods pro 2” in some reviewers they said that it is fake when that word pop up, it should be “airpods pro” only
If the orange LED on your AirPods Pro 2 case doesn't light up when you tap on it, try this: First, tap once on the right side of the case (somewhere between the LED and the right edge of the case), and then quickly tap again, this time on the left side of the case (between the LED and the left edge of the case). Make sure to press a little bit harder when you tap, don't just touch the case. Tapping directly on the LED doesn't light it up for me - I tried multiple times on my Pro 2 2023 model. But these right/left taps always make it light up for 2-3 seconds. The tap sequence is important: it works with a right tap followed by a left tap, but not the other way around. Hope this helps!
one very easy and quick way to tell is if you go to the "headphone accommodation" settings and custom transparency. If you can't change it, you have a clone.
i get a message saying only Apple and Beats can be customised.. everything else works so well, including the tapping on the case, adaptive mode, ANC mode, and “Find my” with correct location and sound coming from the case. If these are fake they are INCREDIBLY good fakes..EDIT: airpods need to be out of case for this screen to work. Mine seem to work fine with heaphone accommodations
@@Jjmoney624 you got scammed big time, they sell fake ones for 40 euro here.. if it was already 200 why you didn't buy it directly from Apple or like Amazon?
Thanks for your reviews. Which clones would you recommend for the best mic? I talk a lot via headset and always been complied by interlocutors that my voice is not clear.
Hey man, could you please weight the original boxe including everything in it? That’s how i normally buy airpods to be 100% positive they are not fake. Thank you🎉
Also check the reported model number listed. I have seen cases that report model numbers that are Lightning connector versions, but actually have USB-C ports and vice versa.
I wanted to try and get a deal and buy sealed Airpods Pro 2 off of eBay or whatever. But too much of a risk and instead just went ahead and paid the $200 while they were on sale from legit stores.
I think I was scammed. Fella pulled up to me at a gas station claiming he needed gas money. Offered to give me a new in box set in exchange for gas money. I would have given him gas money either way but at least I got some earbuds out of it. They sound good.
Hello, i just got my original airpods pro 2, but i am not able to purchase apple care. It says something about update purchase date. Do you know how to solve this and do you think apple care is worth it for airpods?
I think you need to add the purchase date on Apple’s website. On the Apple serial number lookup website. I bought Apple care for my AirPods Pro 1, but I have not bought it for my AirPods 3 or AirPods Pro 2. I don’t think it’s worth it if you take care of your earbuds. You will only notice the battery degradation that starts after around 2 years of usage. So this passes the Apple care date. I’m not sure if you’re able to extend the Apple care to more than 2 years. I think you can only can the battery replaced if it’s 80% or under
The thing is when i see info from my iPhone has model number 2968(but this is the case number)and not 2698.also on the left of the case when open has number a2700.might be fake?
Thank you very much for the excellent video! Would you happen to know if there will be a new product update for the v5.2TB anytime soon? I am considering buying the v5.2TB or just wait for a new one to come out.
Hey iDiscoverTech! I've been a viewer of this channel for a while now. I just wanted to ask, are the danny v4.2/5.2TB compatible with mac? If not, plz recommend some good clones that are compatible. Thank you!
Lots of great tips! You didn't show the charger port--my fake ones had a lightening cable rather than a USB-C, it was the most obvious sign they were fakes.
Brother I brought mine .. I check the serial number on Apple it’s said original . But it’s does not have the adaptive mode 😮. And the case light does come up when I tap on it
thank you for your review, I'm not planning to buy original Airpods Pro 2 soon. I have been using high quality copy of AP PRO for 1 year now and it's performing well. Last week I ordered the Jenny 5.2TB and I received 2 days ago, I can tell you that it's so amazing how close manufacturer have gone to reproduce the original AP PRO 2. I'm very happy with them.
Damn, i got scammed! Omg, how do they do it? I thought you were legit. All features work on my iPhone, even the sound quality in music listening to rock, electro house it's damn good! I'm impressed
Just bought mine from Best Buy yesterday but it doesn’t have a serial number sticker, rather it is printed directly on the box. Would this mean they are real?
I Will need to see a photo. You can send it on my discord. Link to the server in the description. They usually have stickers on the packaging. I’ve seen them directly printed on the box, unless if it’s an “open box” and they decided to peel it off.
My AirPods Pro 2 lightning does not have adaptive audio, are they fake? I checked serial numbers and they say they are original and still have warranty
I need to see photos of it to maybe recognize if they’re real or not. You can join my discord and upload some photos of it. If you also have the box, then maybe it would be easier to authenticate. Some non-originals may have active serial number. Using from a real one.
@@idiscovertech Thank you for your response. All these you mentioned are American stores. I’m in the UK. But I don’t get the logic how 3rd party vendors have it cheaper than Apple themselves.
@@samuelayogu6023 Those stores mentioned are authorized sellers by Apple. What I assume is that they're sold at a slight cheaper cost to those big retail chains. That's how they're able to sell it at a more affordable cost
Bought yesterday from Amazon and everything makes me think it’s original (the case, the interactions, the sound ecc) BUT the lightning led when charging. It does go off after I insert the charging cable, but when I tap on it does nothing. Is it really authentic ?
Issue resolved! Turns out, I had been using the wrong charger all along. Instead of the appropriate one, I was using my old Samsung USB-C charger, which only powered up the AirPods themselves, neglecting to charge the case. It seems it lacked the necessary power. I've since switched to the charger from my PC, which boasts far more strength, and now everything is functioning perfectly.
So many replicas out there it’s crazy… my biggest thing would be noise cancellation and sound quality. It’s a dead giveaway if you ever had authentic ones
I have 3 different serial numbers and a warranty date for 2025.. for the fake ones have a warranty date? I feel like I have a fake that’s real haha gosh it’s so hard to buy used these days
3 หลายเดือนก่อน
Me too. The light does not fade away when I plug in the charger. I’m on iPhone 7, iOS 15.8
Am using 13 pro max and i bought apple aipod pro gen 2. The problem is it is not showing adptive features. Ios17.3 version in my phone. That means i was scamed?
@@Tradengineer just charge them. Plug them and keep them close to your iPhone. They will randomly update. You can't manually force them to update. Have you tried tapping on the case when charging?
I had a feeling mine were fake. Paid $80 on eBay for a Gen 2 Air Pod pro. Only had a gen 1 to compare. But the “newer” ones, I can’t do voice calls. If I take them out when someone calls it automatically hangs up on them. And the audio awareness mode is not accessible now that I checked after watching this. People suck.
I have ordered them. Tomorrow it will be delivered and its an Open box delivery. So if i verify the serial number in apples warranty coverage site. can i conclude that its original or fake ?
You should check if iCloud works. You can also test Adaptive Audio and Conversation awareness. Check if all 3 unique serial numbers match in the Bluetooth settings. Do the tap test when charging them.
Lightning or USB C? Did you try the charging method. Trying to tap on the case when charging. You can verify if iCloud Sync works if you have multiple Apple devices
The font on the back of my case is way too big, the case says made in Vietnam and the AirPods say made in china, and no serial numbers match up. Are you certain that these are fake? I bought them off of amazon!
@@CaleCarlson The serial numbers of the left, right earbuds, and inside the lid or the charging case are supposed to be all different. They should also match the ones shown in your Bluetooth settings. I haven’t really seen a case from Vietnam and earbuds from China. Unless maybe if they were refurbished?
@@idiscovertech they were refurbished, but there were a couple other tell tale signs too. The font on the case was too big, and also the serial numbers don’t match what they say in settings
Apple tech support confirm that serial is ok and i have still guaranty but same serial nmb on left and right headphones so i bought fake one / cant update firmware
Idc about if they’re knock offs if they look the same, sound the same, have all the same settings who cares. I bought an identical ripoff and everything is the same only it was sold in a non apple packaging in a gas station and it was 25 bucks. For 175 dollars cheaper I can live with it not being made by apple if everything else is pretty much the same
How do ik if i bought fake airpods it says made in California assembled in Vietnam i searched the serial number up and it shows the model and everything
Only a few can be updated. Though, the updates of the clones don’t update the same way as the originals. They don’t automatically update when you charge them and they don’t have updates as often as Apple.
For the sound quality, it would a bit hard to differentiate if you've never tried a real one and held a real one in your hand. In those case, some would not pay attention
Some great information here. None of the clones have real iCloud sync/hand off but some can connect simultaneously to multiple devices via Bluetooth. Is that a maximum of 2 items? My current ones only connect to one at a time. Do I need real ones to go from iPhone to iPad to Apple Watch seamlessly? I’d also say that buying second hand AirPods is very risky and probably not very hygienic. If you want cheap ones go straight for a good quality clone. Mine sound really good and ANC is excellent. It’s just the issue above that’s a bit of a bummer. If I get real ones I’ll spend the proper money and get them from Apple for peace of mind!
Some clones can switch in between up to 2 devices (iPhone or iPad). It can’t really switch to Apple Watch. As it’s not tested and optimized for the watch.
@@stephanefotso those features are there for how, but they don’t actually work. So far, the v5.2 H2S Ultra is the only one that I’ve seen with working Conversation awareness
When I put my airpods on charger the light doesn’t go away, is that mean that mine is fake although the noise cancellation is working? And they can be charged by Apple Watch charger
@@Daoodsalmine doesn’t turn off as well and it’s usb c. I asked Apple support today and they said it’s the expected behavior of usb c gen 2 air pods pro: with the exact reply as below: Yes its a expected behaviour in new AirPods Pro (2nd generation, USB-C) light keeps stay on when you plug-in for charge.
I came across a weird one.. the serial numbers match up.. it even has warranty.. the led stays on while charging.. it makes a ding sound when it opens, the packaging was sketchy, I’m so confused lol
You contradict yourself like 20 times in the video, you said no clones have conversation awareness or adaptive audio, but then say once plugged in the light will fade away. I have a pair right here that have both feature but the light stays on as it charges
The features are shown on your phone. But it doesn’t mean that it works. I haven’t seen a clones that have both adaptive audio and conversation awareness working. On the originals, the LED will fade away after a few seconds when plugged in charging. Most clones will not fade away.
They’re both good. V5.2 TB has a bit better ANC and Transparency mode. Though, v5.2 H2S Ultra has a perfect matte hinge. It also has conversation awareness (it worked from my testing)
I already did a video on the V2 TB. It’s the same thing. As for the metal V2 TB, it’s the same as the plastic ones in terms of specifications. Only difference is the raw material used for the ear cups.
Yes, but the updates released for clones are not identical to the originals. Additionally, not all clones can be updated. Only a few version can be updated.
It is possible to tell. The whole point of the video was to help identifying one. One of the easiest way to identify an authentic one is by charging them and then tap on the case. This is useful if you plan on buying second hand in-person.
@@idiscovertech But I don’t see many people being able to stand at checkout or even customer service at Walmart, target or Best Buy running all of these tests before leaving the store. Plus it’s so subtle that you will then need to win your argument with the store which may be an uphill battle.
@@PaDutchRunnerbro are u slow or stupid asf? walmart and best buy are never gonna have fakes, they literally are getting the supply they have directly from apple😂
WOW i got the original ones from a Girl that did not like the feeling on her ears and she literrally sold them to me for $35 hahahaha, since the moment I saw the box and the quality I said YEAP they are real! This video helped me a lot btw!

Apple tech support confirm that serial is ok and i have still guaranty but same serial nmb on left and right headphones so i bought fake one / cant update firmware
@@sonarscopevideo most likely. The serial number could be used from a real one. Which may show up on Apple’s website.
Idc about if they’re knock offs if they look the same, sound the same, have all the same settings who cares. I bought an identical ripoff and everything is the same only it was sold in a non apple packaging in a gas station and it was 25 bucks. For 175 dollars cheaper I can live with it not being made by apple if everything else is pretty much the same
What about find my option? Will the fake AirPod appear on that?
It will, but the features and locating is very limited. The precision finding to locate the charging case won't work.
How do ik if i bought fake airpods it says made in California assembled in Vietnam i searched the serial number up and it shows the model and everything
Fakes can show the same. You bought the AirPods Pro 2?
The tap is good
If serial number checks , is it still possible that it’s fake ?
Yes
can i claim warranty for such products as the serial number is getting verified
@@जिष्णु You can't claim warranty on a fake
Is it true that the fake one can’t be updated the firmware?
Only a few can be updated. Though, the updates of the clones don’t update the same way as the originals. They don’t automatically update when you charge them and they don’t have updates as often as Apple.
These fakes got me confused, they sound good and have serial numbers damn
Some cases that have FC are fake?
I am unable to comprehend why they would make such elementary spelling errors if they are capable of replication.
Very helpful, thanx ! 🙂
No problem
Need help all the serial numbers same on AirPods and case are these fake and the noise cancel does not sound different.
@@cycloneyou then it’s most probably a low end quality clone.
So my airpods i think are fake. I got them for 100$ on ebay and everything seems fake. But the cereal code checks on apple. What do you think?
I need to see them to assess them. You can provide pics on my discord. Link in video description to join
you should be able to tell by the sound? otherwise if they sound the same then ...meh?! as long as you expect that you are buying fake?
For the sound quality, it would a bit hard to differentiate if you've never tried a real one and held a real one in your hand. In those case, some would not pay attention
does "hey Siri" works on any of the fakes?
It works on some clones, but may not work properly or always work.
Some great information here. None of the clones have real iCloud sync/hand off but some can connect simultaneously to multiple devices via Bluetooth. Is that a maximum of 2 items? My current ones only connect to one at a time. Do I need real ones to go from iPhone to iPad to Apple Watch seamlessly?
I’d also say that buying second hand AirPods is very risky and probably not very hygienic. If you want cheap ones go straight for a good quality clone. Mine sound really good and ANC is excellent. It’s just the issue above that’s a bit of a bummer. If I get real ones I’ll spend the proper money and get them from Apple for peace of mind!
Some clones can switch in between up to 2 devices (iPhone or iPad). It can’t really switch to Apple Watch. As it’s not tested and optimized for the watch.
V5.2TB has FIND MY..., It can connect simultaneously to 2 devices at least. I forgot to mention that they have ADAPTIVE ANC AND CONVERSATION AWARENESS
@@stephanefotso those features are there for how, but they don’t actually work. So far, the v5.2 H2S Ultra is the only one that I’ve seen with working Conversation awareness
@@idiscovertech I saw this comment right on time. How good is the v5.2 H2S Ultra when compared with v5.2TB?
dawg my girl go me fake ones on accident for Christmas , so I bounced back and bought us both sum from Apple ain’t playing them games no more 😂
Mine light doesn’t turn off when charging but it’s not usb it’s lightning so is it fake?
It stays orange? I believe that it should turn off after a couple of seconds
When I put my airpods on charger the light doesn’t go away, is that mean that mine is fake although the noise cancellation is working?
And they can be charged by Apple Watch charger
You have the USB C? Technically it should turn off after a couple of seconds
@@idiscovertech yeah type c
And I can’t turn off case sound
@@Daoodsal they’re fake
@@Daoodsalmine doesn’t turn off as well and it’s usb c. I asked Apple support today and they said it’s the expected behavior of usb c gen 2 air pods pro: with the exact reply as below: Yes its a expected behaviour in new AirPods Pro (2nd generation, USB-C) light keeps stay on when you plug-in for charge.
Thank goodness I researched first, I was about to buy fakes!
I have real airpods from walmart. why do i have lighting charge port
That’s the older model. They released the lightning model first
While charging, the orange light is always on (until done) a real airpod the orange light will always turn off after a few seconds?
yes. Some clones may also turn off after a few seconds (but only a very few of them)
@@idiscovertech dam I guess I gotta contact eBay.
You bought the AirPods Pro 2?@@22rsx
@@idiscovertech yes
I came across a weird one.. the serial numbers match up.. it even has warranty.. the led stays on while charging.. it makes a ding sound when it opens, the packaging was sketchy, I’m so confused lol
You contradict yourself like 20 times in the video, you said no clones have conversation awareness or adaptive audio, but then say once plugged in the light will fade away. I have a pair right here that have both feature but the light stays on as it charges
The features are shown on your phone. But it doesn’t mean that it works. I haven’t seen a clones that have both adaptive audio and conversation awareness working.
On the originals, the LED will fade away after a few seconds when plugged in charging. Most clones will not fade away.
Is the 5.2 H2S ultra better than the 5.2 TB
tb is the best
They’re both good. V5.2 TB has a bit better ANC and Transparency mode. Though, v5.2 H2S Ultra has a perfect matte hinge. It also has conversation awareness (it worked from my testing)
@@idiscovertech are both made by Danny?
@@Synergy06_ Danny doesn’t physically make them, but he has them for sell
Siri does not work on my dupe buds. And also microphone not too clear during calls.
Does the flycc app work with the original airpods because i wanna use it on android since dont have an iPhone
No. It does not work.
@@idiscovertech okay thanks for the answering
Ill save you 11 min: Look for quality
Can you maybe review the Jenny Airpods Max V2?
I already did a video on the V2 TB. It’s the same thing. As for the metal V2 TB, it’s the same as the plastic ones in terms of specifications. Only difference is the raw material used for the ear cups.
does dynamic head tracking work on replicas
You mean Spatial Audio head tracking? Yes
what about 6 months apple music trail
@@Zyl722 I'm not sure
Where can I find the mouse that on you table?
The same one is sold out, you can find some other ones by searching macaron wireless mouse. Here is one random one:

Metallic hinges on the originals
Damn…. They got me for $40!
The one i checked off was the tapping on case the light didnt come on argggg
The way he open the clone box is not fair bro 🤣🤣
can fake one get updated ?
Yes, but the updates released for clones are not identical to the originals. Additionally, not all clones can be updated. Only a few version can be updated.
I really spent a hundred bucks on some fake AirPods of marketplace I’m going to end it
Mine say „assembled in TAIWAN“!
Is that most likely a fraud?
Yes. I haven’t heard of them being produced in Taiwan. Only in China and Vietnam
I think they r fake but I don’t understand Why does it show apple care on it
Copy pasted serial code
So basically we can’t tell. Don’t ever trust non apple retailers to sell you authentic AirPods.
It is possible to tell. The whole point of the video was to help identifying one. One of the easiest way to identify an authentic one is by charging them and then tap on the case. This is useful if you plan on buying second hand in-person.
@idiscovertech Charging them and tap on the case? Can you elaborate please?
@@idiscovertech But I don’t see many people being able to stand at checkout or even customer service at Walmart, target or Best Buy running all of these tests before leaving the store. Plus it’s so subtle that you will then need to win your argument with the store which may be an uphill battle.
@@irtesamnasrat9866 I show that in the video
@@PaDutchRunnerbro are u slow or stupid asf? walmart and best buy are never gonna have fakes, they literally are getting the supply they have directly from apple😂
WOW i got the original ones from a Girl that did not like the feeling on her ears and she literrally sold them to me for $35 hahahaha, since the moment I saw the box and the quality I said YEAP they are real! This video helped me a lot btw!
Weight??
The original earbuds should be a little bit heavier. If you have a scale with you, even better
I paid 60 and mine are real.
Bro flycc app not connecting airpods pro clone
Doesn’t with for all clones. If you have the correct ones, and it still doesn’t work. Then try to restart your phone or use another phone
Pricw would be the first clue
08:50 is the real punch :) 🥊
