Fake creative earphones


Fake models in the market: EP-630 and EP-830 creative earphones in the market can possibly turn out to be fakes.

THE GENUINE EP-630 EARPHONES

1)  The strings of the real earphones are of equal length.

2)  PACKAGING: It is packed in blister packs, usually orange in color.

3)  The price difference between the real ones and the fakes is huge.





HOW TO SPOT THE FAKES?

Now there , you have a very easy answer. The most easy ways to spot a fake  EP-630 are  :

ü  As  mentioned before , the cords of the real EP-630 are of  equal length ,unlike the fakes which have different cord lengths.

ü  The  pack of the creative earphone is usually orange.



Other differences

ü The  fakes do not have a matte finish.

ü The driver cover of the real EP-630 is of silver color, and it is smooth and rounded, but the fake has a 45 degree angle.

ü The grill on the real pair is silver colored, and almost flush mounted, but the fakes have quite a dull finish.

ü The ear bud lip on the fake is kind of square.





Something about the sound

What’s the use of something that does something that it’s not supposed to do?

The main use of the earphones was to produce good sounds right?

But unfortunately the fakes aren’t designed to do so. The right ear bud of the fake pair usually turns out to be fakes. They sound quite uneven. If you push them further into your ears, you hear a scrunching sound. In some cases, no sound can be heard from one of the ear buds of the set.

If you want to hear clearer and sharper sounds, spot the fakes!



Appearance of the fakes



Fakes?? Which one?? Ha ha! Clearly visible!



Small ear buds from the real pair are quite larger than the fake pair.



The real one: has a silver driver cover and grill. And the driver edge is rounded.
The counterfeit set: has its grill glued to the inner wall of the earphone. Also, the grill is darker than the one on the real stuff. Its driver case is edged.



The ear bud lip on the fake is squared. On the right, you can see the ear bud lip of the genuine set, which has an angled edge.



And at last, the cords are of the same length on both sides of the genuine set.



Where to buy from , online?

1)  Creative’s online store.

2)  Amazon .

HOW TO DETECT Fake iPods

FAKE IPODS ARE BECOMING COMMON IN MARKETS. THE CLONES ARE HARD TO WORK WITH. HOW DO WE DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN THE REAL IPODS AND THE FAKES? A FEW POINTS WILL ANSWER THIS QUESTION.


THE FAKES are sold AT A REDUCED PRICE. MOSTLY THE VENDOR SELLING THE FAKES OFFERS A 30% DISCOUNT.


The fakes come with extra features. These include FM, free e-books, voice recorder and a lot more. These features don’t come with the real stuff.


The click wheel of the original stuff reacts on a single touch whereas that of the fakes generally doesn’t


Instead of an iPod dock (used for head phones) the fakes have an usb port. An iPod dock is hard to clone therefore a usb port is made.


Fake apple iPods

Fake apple iPods come in plastic boxes whereas the real ones come in transparent cases
The moment you switch on the real apple iPod, the apple logo appears on the screen.

Beware of your fake earphones,ipods,tablet PCs !

It is completely possible that millions of common people like you and me are using counterfeit stuff without even knowing it!
These merchandise are  sold at low prices, so the dealers are given the priviledges to give excuses of selling goods without warranty,the goods don't function well,and so on.For touch screens, they have certain problems like , improper functioning of the touch screen etc.. The counterfeit goods may have the same logo,same shape, size and other physical quantities .... But only to a certain extent they have no difference from the real stuff....
There are a few miniature details that distinguishes the original products from the counterfeit ones.My blogs are all dedicated to these.....
