Nobody here can assist with checking counterfeit AirPods. Apple won’t.

Counterfeits can range from clumsy copies, to quite accurate.

Counterfeits will usually lack transparency and/or noise cancellation modes.

Serial numbers are routinely copied, and are not evidence of authenticity.

If you don’t trust what you have, return it to the seller for a refund, if the seller is still available.

Best acquire AirPods from an Apple authorized resellers, or from Apple directly.
