Fake AirPods 3 Looks Real: How to Know If Its Fake or Not

Fake Apple AirPods 3 are now being sold by various online stores and retailers before the giant tech manufacturer's actual launch. This is currently an issue since some of the buyers said that they look like Apple's real gadget.

According to WCCFTech's report, the upcoming AirPods 3 is expected to arrive in the third quarter of this year. However, Apple hasn't released the exact date of the launch, which means that it is still early for the new wearable gadget to be sold.

The first one to reveal the fake AirPods 3 is Twitter user DuanRui. Their latest post came from a TikTok video showing the actual earphones. Right now, it was able to generate more than 30 retweets, 15 quote tweets, and 290 likes.

"Apple still didn't release AirPods 3 but now its clone is available," said one of the Twitter commentators.

"Are there legit gonna be clone AirPods 3 before real AirPods 3," asked another Twitter user.

Beware of the Fake AirPods 3

It is hard to distinguish if the leaked AirPods 3 is fake or legit since the one shown in the video has the same design as Apple's upcoming product. On the other hand, the leaked counterfeit products also sport the same stem, sensors, and other parts of the legitimate Apple AirPods 3.

However, they still lack the interchangeable ear tips, which was previously confirmed by Apple. If you ever find one on the internet, you can check this link to know the actual look of the new AirPods 3 and compare it with the product you see.

• Always check the device's serial number.
