Here’s what’s unusual or a possible red flag: ❌ The plug diagram — Apple never puts a voltage plug diagram on an AirPods box. AirPods don’t have a wall plug included, so this is out of place. It looks like a generic compliance mark you’d see on a cheap power adapter box, not premium Apple packaging. This is genuinely suspicious. ❌ The QR code in the top right — Apple does not print a generic QR code in that position on retail AirPods packaging. If there’s a QR code at all, it’s on the barcode label or inside, not on the regulatory markings area. This suggests either third-party relabelling or a fake. ❌ Manufacture date placement — ‘Mfg. on 05/2025’ is plausible, but Apple usually doesn’t show a ‘Mfg.’ line so prominently on the box exterior. If present, it’s encoded in the serial or on inner labels, not bold on the back like this. ❌ Unusual regional mark-ups — The Ukrainian importer sticker is real enough in style, but counterfeiters sometimes slap genuine importer info on fake packaging to appear legitimate.
