these headphone arrive within a good time frame . the packaging be very nice consider it be use . I could not really verify if they be fake or real ... but the sound quality be deep and whole and I could not complain about they . these headphone have a tendency to cancel out noise around you . so good that someone will be talk to you rather loudly and you 'll struggle to be able to hear they . these headphone can be problematic if none of the bud fit you consider you get a wide range of size . for what I pay for they these headphone be amazing . not only do they sound good but they be out of the ordinary `` futuristic '' look . people always be look at my headphone and comment on how cool they look . if you be a big fan of in-ears please by all means go for they . -lrb- p. s -rrb- to save yourself from play the be it real or fake game I suggest get it for the full market price . the money be worth the peace of mind .
