I missed the 12.12 sales, and look like I'll be very stupid to buy the airpod pro fullprice now..
Anyway, if I am to buy used, is there any way to confirm it is an original? There is so many counterfeit /refurbish/ version on the market, anyway to find out the used market version is original or counterfeit? |

QUOTE(muddinamin @ Jan 4 2021, 07:43 PM) just buy a new one. you can still get it for MYR788 from this shop. They also got MYR10 voucher. Wow.. Thank you for the link and recommendation! I always shop only shop in Lazada , so never check out Shopee! https://shopee.com.my/Authentic-Apple-AirPo...9432.3371767136 And trust me, this shop is legit, I bought Macbook, iPad, iPhone, HomePod, AirPods from this seller.  Btw, I am planning to use this airpod exclusively in transparency mode... I just like knowing what's around me, even at home, when wife is calling. Always getting scold when i listen with my earphone and can't hear her calling  I opt for the Airpod instead of the Sony mainly because reviews pointed out airpod transparency mode is much more superior and natural. Anyone actually use their airpod in transparency mode all the time? Is it actually practical to do that? |

QUOTE(eikozai @ Jan 4 2021, 09:46 PM) I use Transparency mode 95% of the time. Same reason as u, i like to be alert with my surroundings, and Transparency mode have eliminated the feeling of pressured ear over long time usage. Its feels very comfortable even for long hours usage with this mode. Good to know it is comfortable to use in transparency mode all the time. Because beside want to aware of my surrounding, I also don't like the feeling of pressured ear. I can't listen with normal bud more than half an hour before needing to let my ear "breath"Regarding the shopee link shared above, i’ll remain skeptical since the review numbers are pretty low and it feel fishy with the few lines descriptions. Personally, i won’t spend so much on seller without 100% Authenthic Guarantee badge, since there are a lot AAA grade fake Airpods Pro in shopee. I get mine from Shopee also, from seller with the badge at RM764 during promo.  That makes me skeptical ...so i need to make sure they have "100% authentic Guarantee badge" to make sure they are not fake? it is not a cert that any seller can just put?I have a feeling the safest is buy direct from Apple store... and put a custom engraving on it... also a good way to "mark" it as authentic since only official apple provide engraving. maybe better for reselling next time (donno any buyer will think like that)... but i'll hv to pay full rm1099 ......  |

QUOTE(eikozai @ Jan 4 2021, 10:08 PM) Sellers with “100% Authentic Guarantee” are committed to sell genuine products since they will be penalized to compensate buyer at 200% of amount paid on top of 100% refunds in any case proven guilty. Shopee will verify and review the sellers before honour the badge to them. got it! Thanks for the advice... i should hold until 2.2 i guess and watch out for the 100% authentic guarantee!There are a lot reputable sellers in Shopee: ecogadget, Switch, Machine, and other AASP. If you can still hold ur urge, I’ll suggest you to wait for CNY sales during 2.2 to hunt for promo or better benefits. Shopee always have better benefits or pricing comparing to Lazada, most of the time if not all. eikozai liked this post
