If you’re an iPhone user looking for wireless earphones, you’ve probably considered the AirPods Pro 2 model. However, upon seeing its price of $249, you might have also thought about more affordable alternatives. Maybe you’ve even bought imitation AirPods Pro 2, thinking there’s no real difference. But appearances can be deceiving. A CT scan conducted on fake AirPods reveals just how misleading and inferior they can be.

CT Scans Expose the True Nature of Fake AirPods Pro 2

Fake AirPods are so well-made that they can fool even Apple devices, such as iPhones, iPads, and MacBooks. This has even led to people being scammed into buying fake AirPods, thinking they are real. A CT scan by the research team Lumafield reveals the stark difference between real and fake AirPods. The counterfeit AirPods are made with cheap materials and components, and they lack the sophisticated technology of the real ones.

Upon examining the insides of both earphones, it became evident that the fake AirPods Pro 2 contain fewer components than the authentic ones. As seen in the images accompanying our report, the original earphones are densely packed, while the imitations have much more empty space inside. The reason for this is, of course, the absence of the same technologies. Fake products lack the necessary components for functions like active noise cancellation. They only feature a subpar microphone, a mini “speaker” for transmitting sound, and a battery.

To emphasize once again, the fact that fake AirPods Pro 2 models look like the real deal changes nothing. Continuously using these products with subpar batteries could even lead to serious health issues. Unfortunately, despite all this information, people worldwide continue to purchase these earphones.
