How to identify Original Apple Handsfree

A duplicate Apple Earpieces are so alike to the real ones that even an experienced user may have inconvenience distinguishing between them. Even that it is difficult to differentiate the fake and original set by box because the clone manufacturers shape local stickers which indicate the Russian office of this company. In my blog, I will escort some basic differences between real and fake earbuds so that you will not be miss led.

Things you should take into notice before purchasing Apple Handsfree:

Check the strength of cables

Counterfeits have a very thin cable, but for some, it is smooth and shiny. The cables of the original one are always matte and rough to touch. The original cables do not break easily.

Use your iPhone to check 

Sometimes you could vow that you are holding an original piece but it's fake. The Chinese copies are so well composed that it becomes very much difficult to identify the real one. A piece of good news for iPhone users is that your iPhone will always know the difference. As soon as your phone detects the authentic set of earbuds the IOS device will automatically launch a setup. On your iPhone and open the charged earbuds, a few seconds later it will automatically detect your earphones. You will see a notification on your screen same as;

 

When turning to settings to add your new earbuds, your phone will indicate that you are operating a counterfeit set.

Check the three holes in buds

A real Apple handsfree has three holes that perform the very crucial function of improving audio and eliminating the vacuum. Many duplicate earbuds contain only 2 holes.

 

Check the Left-Right Inscriptions on Earbuds

Probably you are at this point wondering how to differentiate by inscriptions! Not to worry and go forward. Sometimes it is not written on earphones which side is left or right. So you can identify its fakeness by spotting the error. But for the original piece left-right side is imprinted. 

Moreover, you may rub off the letter if it is original it will not be removed, the fake ones may be roughly written or with dark ink.

Check the Shape and weight of Earphones

In the original handsfree, the front does not extend out so much. Also, the fake one is more oval but the original earbuds are much rounded in shape. But nowadays Chinese have learned the skill of making the right bodies so it doesn’t apply to all.

Moving forward to weight, the counterfeits must be always lighter than the original one. To check this you should have the real version in your hand. Take the original Apple Handsfree and put it on a scale, note the weight without a case it should be at least 12 grams. In addition to the case, it's approximately 38 grams.

Check the Speaker Grid

Alongside check the pattern of grid or mesh as it should be light grey to contrast. Most Chinese products have changed mesh to reduce the cost. The look of the grid for the original is shiny, metallic, and thick. If earphones are fake you will not find any apple sticker on the outer box.

 

A good thing for potential buyers is the fact of spelling. Inspect it by spelling or even by touching the font written on the box.

Check the sound quality

Reproducing the same sound in fake earphones is impossible, it differs dramatically. The counterfeits sound is much quieter with no bass and it produces wheezing. Before purchasing the set, the first thing you should do is to test the quality of sound and compare it with the audio quality iPhones are known for.

Check the serial number

A serial number is written right between the buds and the audio controller cable. Here you can see it is written Designed by Apple California Assembled in Vietnam and after this a unique serial number. You can check from google if this serial number is for the original set or a fake one. But, it can be copied too you cannot say that by checking only the serial number it's proved to be original.

Check the gaps and slots

At joints you often get a chance to see gaps and slots between cable and connector, this is the identity of counterfeit earphones. The easiest way to recognize the fake is through curved and rough joints. If we inspect through cables, you can see a clear difference that the original wires are thick and don’t bend easily rather than fake ones.

Check the image on the audio controller

Genuinely one of the promising things to satisfy you of its clarity is the image on an audio controller. There is an image of the microphone on handsfree. The fake ones reflect the black color of the microphone while the original one has grey color. There is no other exchange.

On the left is the original, on the right is a fake

 Check Extra Joints on Earphone 

Joints are visible in fake earphones while these cannot be seen in original ones. This is also a factor to inspect the purity. Clone earphones often have extra joints on the outside and go in an arc to the base.

Check the shape of the plastic case

You can also inspect the fakeness by its case. Some of the copies do have not the Apple logo on the case. You can also identify the original by touching the logo, the fake one will be rough to touch and may have waves visible in sunlight. The original is not rough instead it is flat and smooth.

Left fake, right original

By the same token, the copy of the case has a yellowish tint while the original has a bluish tint noticeable.

Conclusion

By this blog, I have concluded that Apple products are expensive for a reason. If you are spending your money and time, so why not on original ones. Counterfeits are mostly uncomfortable, short-lived, work poorly, have a poor bass and wheezes, also will not give you pure sound ever. You deserve no less than the best quality products.
