Hwy guys

My Bose earphones just recently died

So I thought of getting an AirPod pro 2, the funny thing is that in Carousell people are selling it used as cheap as RM3xx

If the serial number checks out with the airpod

There’s nothing I should be worried about am I right?

Nope, you should be worried. They could use one authentic serial number for all of their counterfeit AirPods.

Anyway, I just read again it’s used so I can’t comment much but if it’s new, then should be worried. However, new ones are so cheap from those official stores from online platforms during double digit sales or pay day sales, just get one from them for the peace of mind.

Thanks Fruitie!

So the best way forward is to pair the earphones first and see if both serial number tally?

There are brand new ones going for RM5xx as well and sealed

Ahh thanks so much..

Anyhow i bought one at RM500 but manatau it was a fake, so returned it and the seller accepted..

Anyway best way to tell from the fake i guess is that malaysia's packaging is very different than the ones all shown in carousell..

I was crazy that the fakes could connect to iphone seamlessly as well

Yes, fake ones can work seamlessly. Glad that you got it returned. Maybe you can wait for the new AirPods Pro or just grab the AirPods Pro 2 during sales on online platforms.

Yeah got the AirPods Pro 2 from Senheng at around 6xx 😅

The only reason why I’m changing to AirPod is that I saw in the future that we might have live translation and I’m quite looking in to it but also at the same time don’t want to spend too much money as I have a kid now🤣

How times have changed , my previous buds were Bose qc2 and sennheiser true momentum

Dun buy any Apple products from non-official stores or non-authorised 3rd party resellers.

Haha yeah but i tend to enjoy buying used stuff, my current iphone 13pro and apple watch ultra2 was also purchased used..

Easier to track with serial code etc to see if it was authentic

the airpods was a very tricky situation.. Before the purchase the serial number check online said it was valid..

Then when i had the airpods in hand i double checked again on the serial number, they say invalid..

So that was when i decided that i wanted to return the airpods
