Fake it Till You Make it: Reviewing Fake AirPods Pro with a Touch Screen
Ever been tempted to buy cheap fake AirPods Pro with a touchscreen while scrolling through online retail stores? Well, saw them, bought them, used them, and honestly, I was baffled by the creativity behind them. So, let’s have a look at what these clones can do.
Does Apple know they have launched touchscreen AirPods?
The fake AirPods Pro is treading around the internet on most online retail stores as Apple’s AirPods Ultra and has a touch screen that none of Apple’s legit devices ever introduced.
Just recently, I also saw Fake AirPods Pro Max headphones at AliExpress, but they seemed fake just by looking at the pictures. However, these clone AirPods are strikingly similar to AirPods Pros’ scaffolding that you won’t even guess at first look. I was so surprised to see the fake AirPods Pro that I thought for a moment that Apple had released a new model with a touchscreen. How and when did this happen?
Nevertheless, the fake AirPods Pro packaging will give you a hint. There are also similar fake AirPods Pro on Amazon, some with touch screens and some without. When you unbox the device, you see a small screen built into the case. This lets you cycle through ANC, play/pause music, and turn on/off features like spatial audio.
These fake AirPods also capture the same USB-C type charging. Opening the case will awaken the screen, and you will see a Bluetooth icon, the battery status of both buds and the case, and options to toggle EQ, ANC, and spatial audio. They have also gone as far as letting you know which earbud is out of the case when you pop one out. Handy, isn’t it?
Now, if you are here to look for a detailed fake AirPods Pro review, I have nothing to tell you because these AirPods have no ANC, spatial audio, or any other meritorious features. All you get is a sophisticated copy of the AirPods Pro that lets you play with the touch screen and have everyday sound quality. However, if you like the idea, you can spend a few dollars on Temu and have fun with it. There is no guarantee that these Chinese manufactured Fake AirPods will work.
Are fake AirPods worth it?
Well, obviously not. Apple AirPods is a legit device with the latest tech and state-of-the-art features (cons aside), so if you think you can enjoy it all by just spending $10 on Amazon, think again.
However, if you accidentally bought an Airpods Pro 2 clone with ANC, you can report the scam and make sure you purchase from a legitimate distributor the next time.
Regardless, if you still want to know How to spot fake AirPods Pro 2, here is a simple tip. If it has a touch screen or it’s cheaper than the official price, it’s a fake. Why would someone give away a huge discount or sell an otherwise expensive device at a remarkably low price? Also, for further verification, you can run a fake Airpods serial number check by visiting Apple’s Check Coverage website before your next purchase.
