Authenticate - at least for me
Hi peeps
If you're reading this, you, like me, are tired of Chinese knockoff copycat bullsit (like a bull sitting, ya know?). I got good news for you, and it's not that you're saving money on your car insurance... but that you're reading the right review. I will add images soon, but... the verdict is in:
These are the real shiznit.
I purchased 2 Galaxy S7 U.S. unlocked versions directly from Samsung's website two months ago. They come with what looks like this product, and I loved them. So, I decided to search out some more to purchase. I was weary about buying from Amazon because sadly Amazon's items have now been replaced with a bunch of carp (mispelled?).
Anyways, I compared my original Samsung headset with this puppy, even using a magnifying glass and this puppy is 99.9% alike. The following are the same:
-Shape
-Speakers (sounds identical)
-Color
-Material
-Flexibility in material/cable
-Tip where you plug into your device
-Volume controls
-Earpiece soft plastic cover
The differences:
-The verified authentic Samsung version is maybe 1/16th of an inch longer. I'm unsure if it's because I've been using it for over a month and "stretched" it.
-The verified authentic Samsung version is marked as "China" with two different letters on the other side. (Y-splitter section)
-This version I purchased from Amazon is marked as "Vietnam" with also two different letters on the other side of the Y-splitter section.
My opinion? These are authenticate. Don't listen to the naysayers... unless Amazon sent them some ripoff version from a different seller.
You're welcome!
