AirPods Pro Clone Review

I purchased the original AirPods back in 2017 when they were first released. They have been my favorite product of the past couple of years and I highly recommend them. Recently I noticed the batteries in the pods not lasting as long as they used to. I was considering getting the new AirPod Pros that are noise canceling. When researching them, I started seeing several companies offering clones that claimed to be as good as the real AirPods for a quarter of the price. I decided to try a pair of AirPod Pro Clones to see how they compared to the real thing.

Black Moon Electronics was kind enough to send me a pair of their Air Pro 3 headphones. They cost $59.95 and come in black or white. I decided to go with white to match what Apple offers. Upon receiving them, I immediately noticed the packaging resembled Apple. They are a 1:1 replica and are hard to tell the difference by looking at them.

Pros

  • Price
  • Design
  • Quality
  • Multiple sized ear tips included
  • Good battery life
  • Mic quality is comparable to original AirPods

Cons

  • Noise cancellation does not work
  • Ear detection is too sensitive. I had to disable it

Overall for the price, I think they are a good option if you want AirPod like headphones but do not want to pay Apple’s price. They are so similar that I worry people are buying fake AirPods from Craigslist or Facebook Market thinking they are buying the real thing.
