Was looking for a pair of these earphones, found a great deal on eBay. Seems cheaper than some of the other Gearbest/LITB prices.
NOTE: Price seems unusually low, but the seller has good ratings。
Item Specifics
Brand : Unbranded/Generic
MPN : Does Not Apply
UPC : Does not apply
Earpiece : Double
Earpiece Design : Earbud (In Ear)
Connector(s) : 3.5mm Jack
The headphones are fake. I have received mine, and they sound horrible. I also own a pair of originals which I can only recommend, I just wanted a second pair for the office. To start with the sound is terrible. Secondly, I put them on my scale and low and behold the original is 17.5gm the fake is only 14.5gm and has some other differences. The packaging is a very close copy of the original. I am a fan of Xiaomi and own quite a few products. If you bought them complain to eBay as they are fake, get your money back and buy the real ones as they are worth it even for $40
On the spec sheet it says Unbranded/Generic so I'm guessing it's not xiaomi at all
If it is as people say, then $10 for generic earphones isn't a great deal.
Want to pull the trigger on this but unsure if it's legit.
I pulled the trigger - will let you know if they're fake when they arrive (like in a month)
The sellors feedback seems to have a lot of negs however it could be that he sells a lot as well.
The pro hds are dual dynamic + single BA = triple drivers - the title "Xiaomi Earphone Hybrid Pro Hd Dual Driver Dynamic Mi In-Ear Control Mic Earphone" makes no mention of the BA driver or that these are triple drivers. at this ridiculously low price, i'd avoid.
they do mention triple drivers in the item description. It's just there are fakes out there for these and alongside the low price that maket this really dodgy.
sure, i was just pointing out that the title doesn't even accurately describe what the item is supposed to be
Listed as generic Definitely fake and should be reported as such
I bought a pair of these from a seller & one earphone died after a few uses. Spend your money elsewhere.
The packaging in the photo looks way off as well
I bought one earphone from this blog that one of the Ozbargainer recommended the other day:

absolutely amazing and the best $12 ever spent. Should check this blog out and choose one to give a go.
Which ones did you end up buying?
Thanks clubhonda just had a read through and purchased that pair. Keen to see how they go!
The box they picture isn't even correct? lol

Beware that fakes of this model have been around for a while. Not saying that these ones are, but a quick google of "Xiaomi Hybrid Pro in-Ear Fakes" reveal that non-original versions have been sold on Gearbest and Bangood before.
