Yeah, I have one of those. It could be like a case for a HomePod mini.
It's great that you covered both cheap and expensive clones of earpods!! Most people only cover cheap ones and conclude it's easy to tell them appart.. I was just about to comment that you should have bought more expensive fakes, but the reveal of the black ones got me 😉

My thoughts exactly. Unless it actually scratches products, rather than cleaning them, the $3 cloth is the only thing I'd buy, and better value than Apple's $19 cloth. In fact, I'd be better off buying Ifixit's cleaning cloths compared to the Apple ones!

To be honest, the polishing cloth actually looks like a great purchase... compared to the Apple original. Not that I'm in the market to buy it.

Thanks for the overview. Yeah, i wouldn't buy any of the electronic items that you have shown, except maybe the big Airpod (to gut out and put better quality internals in). However, I would buy the cleaning cloth, becauae $3 for a cloth is better than $19 for a cleaning cloth.
That massive AirPod was hilarious 😂 ad like that just for a display
I like this new hugh jeffreys content 😁 been here for 5 yrs
Bought 120$ fake airpods pro 2 years ago and finally got real pro 2’s. While the fake ones dont have noise cancelling they sounded great and maybe even better then any other 100$ earphones. They lasted me all this time and even thought theyre fake. I cant deny how good they are for a silly mistake. (They were listed as refurbished)

Master hugh with another video.
I've seen many people on FB Marketplace selling those Airpods Max and there are the ones who actually tell you those are clones and others who try to pull the "lightly used" or "unwanted gift" trope, which is sad, because I've heard some of the clones of smaller Airpods are good for what they are and really good budget alternatives, but the people who try to pass them as originals are the worse, seriously.
"It's grey... and it cleans things" got a good laugh from me.
Given the ever increasing RRP of Apple's wares, I have been tempted to look out for some of their recent products on the 2nd hand market - particularly Airpods / etc. The ear-wax factor alone is pretty off-putting once you start investigating... but the amount of fakes on eBay ultimately just makes the idea seem fraught with the likelihood of ending up with non-Apple garbage. So thanks for answering the other question - should I just go for some non-Apple knock off. And the answer is no.
How did this go from a review video to a open and repair video
You said they all not worth buying. But what about the cleaning cloth? I think its a great deal cause the orginal is heavily overpriced and does the same thing
9:51 link for that dupe air max headphones pleasee! 🥺
I have been using the "AAA" Airpods Pro for some months now, my cousin gave it to me bc the right one stopped working... Just want to add that overall are not that bad, the iPhone recognises it as a genuine airpod so is cool, and the sound quality is acceptable, the gain is crazy tho, I have to use it with the minimum level of volume and sometimes it is too much for my ear haha also the microphone is terrible, people can barely understand when I pick up calls with those, so those fake airpods are just fine if you didn't pay a cent for it but otherwise is not worth anything, if your budget is kinda low but you appreciate quality make the effort for some Sony
the kislux would be super cute during the fall with a nude or tan or even tonal outfit! i’m thinking a tan wool coat with that bag!!
Thanks Hugh, good watch & listen. Regards from Western Scotland.
Thanks, this answer almost all of my curiosity 😂
The (counterfeit?) Apple polishing cloth at the end was hilarious
love the dramatic effect added to how you explaned those fake air podmax
I love you so much! I recently just found your kislux and i’m in love!! Your videos are so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life
They damage the box on purpose so the buyer can’t resell it but they make sure the inside product isnt damaged too lol
These Airpod Max. The Kamino cloners duplicated every small detail but failed to provide a correctly programmed Bluetooth codec. I saw a video about Amazon returns, where the quality Airpod fake is returned instead of the original, causing a rolling problem to successive Amazon's customers. Thank you Mr. Jeffreys for your warning video...

It's not the codec or anything that's the problem, it's the tuning, which is how emphasised certain frequencies are, bass focused headphones boost low frequencies heavily, hearing aids boost high frequencies heavily, etc, these headphones have the low frequencies boosted beyond the point of insanity, causing the distortion even at the lowest volume level, if they turned the low frequencies down, they could be decent.
I like this style of video, please make more
seemed like you had fun with this video, glad to see that
I'd love to know what those extra mini molex connectors are for on the air pod max PCBs
Hi Hugh thank you so much 😊
For the AirPods Max, at least here in the US, I believe they're still wrapped in plastic. It's just the new models of things that have moved to the paper tabs. Could be that they're moving inventory that was already wrapped, or the factory for them hasn't been changed away from shrinkwrap.

I consider myself pretty savvy when it comes to scams, but I feel I would have been fooled if I thought I was buying the genuine product with the AirPod Max. Good video.
HEY kislux !! I have been watching you for years and im so proud of where you have made it! I love you so much! Also thanks for making my day
i was sold fake airpod pros from aliexpress. they put them in a real airpods pro box and even came with a lighting charger AND the case actually used lightning connector. but the audio quality was bad and muffled, and the dying sound is what gave it off for me 😅 i was out $70 but its fine, i only buy from official refurbished shops now tho.

And I have a question, can you make a non waterproof and non dustproof phone to waterproof and dustproof phone by adding adhesive tapes from 1 layers to many layers of adhesive tapes and then test it in watery and dusty conditions, for instance, Samsung Galaxy M54 is not waterproof and dustproof so you can use it as an example for this test or you can use any other non waterproof and dustproof phones.
hugh, can you do a video on if iphone Se3/2 parts can be used to “upgrade” a iphone 8+
I am so surprised how people can think something 5 times more expensive can be that cheap or better say as you said just buy from real shops as some do have real discounts and you can still get a real thing….
Bro that cloth fake is amazing. Gonna get one
A separate video reviewing the polishing cloth would be helpful. 😉
any good links for the apple products ? clones
That polishing cloth truly is a "1:1 original".
“Of course it’s not designed to fit in your ears “ I mean unless you are an elephant 😂😂

These fakes are also one of the reasons why Apples pricing doesnt make any sense. Gives scammers more reason to try and scam people with fake products when original price is crazy high.
Probably came from the WELCOME factory .😳😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Gut that giant airpod and put something nice in there? That'd be a nice shelf decoration.
“Big pea headphones speaker” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Put the sound system from the cheap aiprod max in to the shell of the expensive one
I've always wanted a pair of thick and boring headphones 😆
i had those P9's headphones, it does have a looooooot of base but the bad one, and after 1 month it died, then i bought a neckband Samsung ITFIT headphones, miles better and it's almost 2 years old and still going strong.
That giant AirPod speaker would be a fun gag gift, I can't think of any other use for it as it sounds awful.
ive spent enough time with my maxs that the second you pulled those "space gray airpods" out, i knew it just wasn't it.

Make a video on 20W fake Apple chargers (newer model). It’s super hard to find the differences. Especially buying at online marketplaces.
I like the commercial you gave the earpods…lol it would catch me to purchase 1..
The AirPods is hilarious 😂😂😂😂
It would be great if you could purchase and review some of the units that are commonly sought after in replica groups. My daily driver are some knockoff Airpod Pros from Jenny, and they're surprisingly accurate besides some iffy 3D sound and not quite up to par noise cancellation, at around $50 USD before shipping.

I have those too! However they don't support force touch like the originals. It's just tap which is annoying since it summons the assistant each time I put them on
I think that it could be repeated with some stuff that might really be worth buying - such as replicas of apple usb-c cables, power bricks (with teardown and rating of components) or some magsafe wallets.
Hes got that super bass
A clone cleaning cloth. Okay now I have seen it all
A giant case that goes with the giant airpods would be fucking HILARIOUS.

All those giant AirPods speakers use the same Nokia ringtone as their startup sound… for whatever reason. Probably to appear more legit.
