The BEST AirPod Clone under $30 - Detailed Review of i9000 tws!

[READ ANNOUNCEMENT IN COMMENTS]
Here we have it. The BEST AirPod 2 clone I've tested, under $30!
Don't be scammed by dropshipping websites that sell you "SUPERCOPY" for $80... They are almost EXACTLY the same as these, I guarantee it!
I honestly can't believe how good these are, (except the touch sensor of course) personally I'd say it's about 95% identical to retail AirPods, down to the audio quality.
WARNING: DO NOT TRUST ANY OTHER SELLER THAT SELLS i9000's FOR CHEAP; Sellers can name their product whatever they want! They can get an i60 and sell it as a "i100000 Supercopy"; TRUST THE SELLER, NOT THE MODEL NAME! Many sellers are dishonest and untrustworthy!
Purchase Link: [2022-03-23] Link is BACK! It is a little more expensive at around $29, but now it comes with the Apple text. (However, please try not to leave photo reviews showing the text, as AliExpress hates that.) www.aliexpress...
It even has the 1562M chipset, which means that it's better than the unit in the video!

Hello! I was wondering if you could tell me if these “AirPods” would fit inside a real AirPod’s decorative case?

[@EojinsReviews]

That is a tricky question. First: Is it a hard plastic case? (I highly recommend against buying a CLEAR PLASTIC hard case, since it offers little protection against drops. But protective cases with hard plastic insides also count.) If so, no these will not fit. It can get stuck so please don't try! (Even the newer batches sometimes are off by millimeters, so it can get stuck.) On the other hand, I highly recommend you buy a case that fits properly and is protective - My favorite is the "box shaped" case which you can easily get on AliExpress. I personally use this (not advertising lol): (www.aliexpress.com/item/4000984095552.html? ) This fits ANY replica, really. very nice and feels good in the hand unlike bulky silicone cases.

[@EojinsReviews]

It's not a scam; sites like AliExpress is very strict (understandably) about replicas being sold on their site, so if the seller uploads a photo their listing will be taken down. By just putting an image with text, he can avoid that while still letting you buy the products you see in the video. Don't worry!

I would love to buy this product, but the link only takes you to a “vip pass” on his shop. It just looks very sketchy and no way to know that I am actually getting this product. Really big disappointment

[@EojinsReviews]

😂 I completely understand how you feel, after buying from Amazon with 2-day Amazon Prime shipping and no-questions-asked refund policies, buying fake AirPods from a Chinese website definitely feels.... very very sketchy. HOWEVER! As long as you buy from the RIGHT SELLERS, you will be completely safe. The "VIP page" was put there because AliExpress continually tries to remove any listings that might break their policies (in this case, replica products). This guy has been experimenting with several methods of listings, and in the end, this method (no details, only "VIP" listing) works the best at.. you know, not getting taken down. This is the risk you have to take when buying products that you can't buy from Amazon (and trust me, the "i9000" listings on Amazon/ebay are usually very bad quality, misbranded products).

@@EojinsReviews thanks so much for the reply, I’ll probably end up taking the gamble because it seems like such an awesome product!

@@deedranelson9399 Nice! If you have any issues or questions, please go ask on the AirReps discord. Lots of helpful people there. A lot of buyers make mistakes when buying from AliExpress for the first time, so it's always good to ask and clarify anything you're worried/confused about. ;)

damn I remember buying shitty AirPods from dhgate back in 2019 summer ima buy these

[@user-mz7hc2ix1n]

When I contacted him he told me his PayPal was down and asked me to pay through Transferwise. I did so and received confirmation from Transferwise that the money was transferred. However, Highcity insisted that he didn’t receive the money. After going back and forth with him for months with me doing everything possible to show him I paid, he finally said that he might’ve received my money but didn’t know if it was from me. I pleaded him to ship and he finally agreed saying he would yet it has been a month and haven’t received anything...🙃

[@Strawberryfiend]

Tj maybe try talking to r/AirReps or their Discord in case you haven’t done so already, they could possibly step in. Sorry this happened to you

[@EojinsReviews]

ohhh boy. Hicity gets a very large volume of orders, and sometimes he screws up and this undesirable situation happens. Happened about twice in the past 2 years AFAIK. Sorry this happened to you, I suggest you ask for help on the Discord ^^;;

[@sonygoup]

How do they work on IOS 14. Any test

[@Ray-it2zj]

What the difference between i500 and i9000. And for i9000 is there better version like i9000 pro or i9000 max

[@EojinsReviews]

One thing to know: NEVER trust the model names for AirPod clones! Sellers can name their product anything they want; they can get an i60 and sell it as an "i100000 supercopy", and one seller's "i9000" will NOT be the same as another seller's "i9000". NEVER trust brand names (or reviews on AliExpress, a lot of them are fake). Find the good trustworthy sellers (on the AirReps discord) instead!

Can I buy these on Amazon? What “brand” should I look for?

[@EojinsReviews]

Unfortunately no :/ Bait and Switch is so common on Amazon, they put random version names and sell outdated versions. I recommend you visit the AirReps discord and ask for the Hicity store link, the V3M is very very good from my experience.

[@EojinsReviews]

Amazingly, the link is back up, and it even has the Apple text and an updated chipset (Airoha 1562M)! www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003610653399.html?

[@patrickblenker6286]

hi man i have tried to reach out to this guy and get some of the fake air pods and he doesnt seem to reply. i texted him about 3 time in 1 month and the link doesn't work any more any way you can tell me how to get some

[@EojinsReviews]

Yes, that's one issue with Hicity.. ^^;; He gets hundreds of messages per day on WhatsApp, so if you send a message at the wrong time, it will get buried under all the other messages and never seen. You need to send him a message when he is actually online. The people in the AirReps community are creating a website for him, so we can place orders without having to actually catch him on WhatsApp. In the meantime, if you go to the AirReps discord, you can choose to be notified when Hicity is online, so you can send him a message. airreps.link/discord

Great vid as usual

[@teoivanovskii4320]

Can u please answer me are they the same size as apple original ones. Im thinking that these are big ones and look ugly am i wrong or no

[@EojinsReviews]

no, these look and feel exactly the same. The pods and case both. Unnoticeable even when put side by side, I bet. HOWEVER, it is approximately a few tenths of a millimeter off, so while most airpod cases will fit nicely, HARD PLASTIC cases will not fit. Be careful and make sure to buy a case that's made of silicone (or one of those suitcase-shaped cases)!

[@teoivanovskii4320]

@@EojinsReviews thank you alot. And for buying them on the link they havent got much orders on aliexpress i saw ones for 19$ with 1000 orders.Is the link in description updated?

[@EojinsReviews]

@@teoivanovskii4320 The thing is, any seller can name their product anything they want. So they can get a low quality replica (say i60 tws) and sell it as "i9000 tws". Then the quality wouldn't be the same as this one. The link is updated and it is from the original Hicity store ("VIP" link). I recommend you buy from that link, although if you really want to, you can risk it and buy from the other link. No guarantees on quality though!

[@SenlongBeat]

loved the effort 🔥 good job.

[@arjxsid]

do they work with real airpods cases?

[@EojinsReviews]

Soft/silicone cases? Definitely. Hard plastic cases? Sometimes, sometimes not! Don't risk it; Buy a softer case that'll fit regardless of a few millimeters' difference.

[@dexterrr5975]

Seems good but does anyone know how long they last?

[@EojinsReviews]

Been using them for over 6 months, still works fine! You can expect a nice quality replica to last over a year, even 2 if you're lucky. After that, even retail airpods will stop working well because the tiny batteries stop holding enough power.

[@alekzandah360]

Are these the best sound quality AirPod replicas? My mom has the real AirPods and they sound quite nice. Not the best headphones ever but for non studio work they’re good.

[@EojinsReviews]

Oh yes, they're good. One thing though, it may not connect properly to PC's or laptops. With phones it should work fine. The audio quality is good too. But if you want the best quality, I suggest you invest a little more for Hicity's "V3M". It costs around $43, but you'd get a discount (and the apple text!) if you contact him via Whatsapp. www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002704729655.html

I never knew 75,000 views counted as "millions".. I wish I had millions of views, hahaha! I'm actually pretty sure that some reviewers take real products and advertise them as replicas... I don't do that though. If the product sucks, I refuse to review it or I tell the seller that the review won't be favorable.. (Many of them just ask me not to upload the review in that case.)
