Are my AirPods Pro fake?

Could somebody tell me if this box is normal or these are fake? Because I’ve ordered these from a store that should sell real items but I’ve never seen this box before.

Check these if you have AirPods pro 2 Gen but of them works with others too.


  1. Google model no and check country origin same or not. (These are on the box)
  2. Check Apple coverage with serial number
  3. Apple logo on box is thick.
  4. Apple box weight is 244 Gram with box
  5. While opening the box, pullout paper comes out easily.
  6. Below the case there will be a cardboard case not the plastic one.
  7. In genuine product you will get charging pin with a proper packing in which only charging pin will be outside and lid will be inside.
  8. Serial number of box will match with charging case.
  9. Serial number of both AirPods will be different in settings.
  10. Apple airpods tips should be come out easily and 3 types of tips should be pinch in back to their place easily as well. There is a dedicated slot or hole for it in which it will fit and won’t fall.
  11. Real AirPods pro 2nd Gen weight is 61G (5+5gram ke AirPods + 50 Gram case)
  12. While connecting the fake ones first time you will get this message “Not your AirPods pro”…… while with real one “Airpods Pro”
  13. Play sound in Find my iphone and it does work only with AirPods pro 2nd Gen not with fake ones
  14. Track your AirPods case with find my iPhone.
  15. Go to bluetooth and check latest firmware because fake one doesn’t update to latest firmware.
  16. In Original go to setting~AirPods pro and you’ll get a expiration date but not with fake one’s.
  17. In Original, Noise cancellation will on while they are in your ears but with fake ones they will on continuously whether they are in ears or not.
  18. In Original case the written text will be much lighter than local one.
  19. With original case, after closing the case, your Battery percentage window will close automatically, but not with the fake ones.

I got two of em but they are sealed I don’t want to break the box open but I got these at Att and he showed me their receipt (financed of course) but everyone online saying the ones that have that picture on the back are fake and sold at target? Now I don’t know if I should break the seal I was thinking maybe it’s different retail packaging (new or Att version). Serial number checks out tho anyone else buy em recently from apple and had this back picture ??
