Counterfeit versions of AirPods are nothing new. There are so many on the market. Even for new models that haven’t been released yet, China has ways to launch counterfeit versions first. Perhaps the copycat market is too fierce. Recently, a Chinese company has decided to start innovating and directly add ideas that Apple has not done yet to the copycat version. AirPods equipped with a touch screen have quietly appeared in the market, and they look really cool. .

More high-tech than Apple!China creates AirPods knockoff with touch screen
Recently, fix apple shared multiple sets of photos and videos of new AirPods knockoffs on The screen can display a variety of useful information, such as the battery status of each earphone, setting alarm clocks, music playback control interface, and seemingly EQ adjustment options. This also means that you will need to set or adjust these functions in the future. You don’t need to take out your phone, just adjust it directly on AirPods, which is very convenient:

In addition, you can also find from the hands-on video that it is a copycat version after all, and the materials used must not be that good. Whether it is sliding left or right or clicking, the response is a bit slow, so don’t expect much from this touch screen. .
I have to say that it is really convenient to have more screens that can display information, especially when checking the battery, you can quickly know the remaining battery at any time, and you don’t have to worry about suddenly running out of power in the middle of use. However, there are some functions that make people curious. For example, is the setting part connected to the mobile phone, or is it directly adjusting the AirPods copycat version? In addition, how do functions such as alarm clocks work?
As for the price, fix apple has not disclosed it. I have looked for it on Taobao. It seems that it is not on the market yet, but it must still be much cheaper than Apple’s original AirPods. However, compared with other knock-off competing products, it should be more expensive. Some.
Although it feels cool to have an OLED touch screen, I still don’t recommend the copycat version of AirPods, so it is still far behind the original version, especially in the sound quality part. In addition, copycat versions like this have not passed national inspection, so safety is more worrying. Ada has previously unboxed and tested an AirPods Pro 2 knockoff version “Yuehu 1562AE”. Those who are interested can watch the video below:
As early as 2021, Apple obtained a similar patent, which reads, “By configuring a headphone box with an interactive user interface, users can control operations related to wireless headphones, which can enhance the practicality of the headphone box. And improve the user’s control over wireless headphones.” However, it has not been introduced to AirPods so far. I guess it is due to cost considerations. After all, AirPods without a screen are so expensive, and if the screen is not good, the price will still increase. Increase by 1/3, or even 1/2:
However, I think we can still look forward to it. Chinese manufacturers often launch knock-off versions of AirPods before new models are launched. Maybe new AirPods will also be added to the screen in the future.
