I guess they can be just a different batch of the box cause my AirPods Pro 2nd Gen looks completely different on the back on the box. But inside all looks legit to me, check the serial number Find the serial number of your AirPods – Apple Support (UK)

The only way to know for sure is to buy them from Apple or an authorized Apple seller. There is no way other way to be positive. If they were not purchased from an Authorized site, then it is very likely they are counterfeit. You may find that the counterfeit AirPods will have a lower quality, Find My may not work, or Noise Cancellation will work poorly, if at all. They also will not be covered by any warranty.
