1) Serial number may be a legitimate Apple serial (based on the lookup on Apple's site). This is highly deceptive and often confuses most people.
2) Box and headphones show many signs of counterfeiting. Here are some tell-tale signs:
- On box, the sticker at bottom of the box shows: Compatible with latest iOS and iPadOS devices, Apple Watch or Mac. IOS iPadOS, Apple Watch Mac. This last line is translated into 4 languages in the original and IOS is definitely not misspelled.
- OEM box has AirPods Max Sky Blue with Blue Headband. Counterfeit box as follows: Headphone Max Space Gray with Black Headband
These are not authentic AirPods Max headphones. They are plastic cups on the ear, not "beautifully anodized aluminum cups feature a revolutionary mechanism that allows each cup to rotate independently and balance pressure" (https://www.apple.com/airpods-max/).
- The LED light is blue and red when pairing, while legitimate Apple AirPods Max are actually amber and white. https://support.apple.c
- A tell-tale functionality with fakes it does not support Automatic Switching between Apple devices (Bluetooth connect with two devices and hand-off automatically when playing music or video etc.): https://support.apple.c

I agree. I got the purple version for my sister and they turned out to be fake. Serial numbers didn't match with the box as well. Wrong model model listed on the device vs. original box . Also "made in china vs assembled in Vietnam"

Also got a pair that were Lightning that had been packaged in the USB-C box
Perhaps I misunderstood the pictures?
I have a purple on order from Amazon too that will be delivered on Friday and I will update.
volume was not loud enough and ANC is weak for the size
it was more cumbersome to charge and it's not compact at all
no idea why these are even worthwhile years later

You refused to return something and just ate the cost because you wanted to take the moral high ground?
