HOW TO SPOT FAKE BEATS BY DR.DRE PROS

UPDATE! THE REAL BEATS PRO COME WITH A FOLDED CLEANING CLOTH. THE FAKES COMING WITH A FLAT PACKED CLEANING CLOTH!
HELLO EVERY ONE. THIS POST IS OBVIOUSLY ABOUT FAKE BEATS BY DR.DRE PROS. NOW LETS START ON THE BOX IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THE BOTTOM LEFT WHERE IT SAYS 'BEATSPRO'. THERE IS NOT MEANT TO BE A SPACE BETWEEN THE BEATS AND PRO AND THERE IS MEANT TO HAVE A 'TM' SYMBOL AFTER THE WORD 'PRO'. GOING TO THE REST OF THE BOX THE FONT IS TO BE LIGHT NOT SUPER DARK IF YOU ARE UNSURE GO TO A LOCAL NEARBY AUTHORIZED DEALER LIKE BESTBUY IN USA OR JBHIFI IN AUSTRALIA. DR.DRES FACE SHOULD BE SHOWN PROPERLY. THE PHOTO IS TO BE CLEAR NOT FOGGY AND DARK. DRE'S CHEEK SHOULD BE SHOWN AND HIS WHOLE FACE SHOULD BE LIGHT. NOW WITH THE FAKE BEATS PRO A TURN IT UP BROCHURE MIGHT BE OR NOT BE INCLUDED. THE HEADPHONES NOW WITH THE EARCUP SHOULD BE TIGHTLY ON. I TRIED TAKING OFF THE EARCUP BUT IT WAS REALLY HARD SOME PEOPLES EARCUP COULD BE TAKEN OFF EASILY. THE ADJUSTING STRAPS ON MINE WERE REALLY AND BY REALLY I MEAN REALLY WERE HARD TO MOVE BUT ONCE YOU KEEP ADJUSTING IT UP AND DOWN IT SHOULD START MOVING WITH EASE. THERE SHOULD BE A SERIAL NUMBER STICKER ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE HEADPHONE JUST ABOVE THE EARCUP. THE BEATS HEADBAND ON THE REAL IS MORE SPREADED WHERE ON THE FAKES ITS MORE ARCHED AND IT GOES IN MORE. THE SOUND QUALITY ON THE REAL PAIR IS MORE CLEAR AND CRISP AND THE HIGHS MIDS AND LOWS ARE OK SINCE THE REAL PAIR ARE KINDA CRAP. ON THE FAKE PAIR THE SOUND ISN'T GOOD AT ALL. THE HIGHS, MIDS AND LOWS ARE CRAP AND IT LACKS IN BASS. THE CLEANING CLOTH SHOULD COME FOLDED LIKE THE REALS. THE COILED CORD SHOULD NOT BE FAR FROM THE HEADPHONE JACK. THEIR SHOULD BE THE CIRCLE STICKERS HOLDING THE SLEEVE TOGETHER WITH THE RED INNER BOX. IT SHOULD BE HOLDING BOXES CORNERS TOGETHER. FINALLY THE CARRYING POUCH WITH THE BLACK PAIR SHOULD NOT BE LEATHER THE FAKES NEAR ME ARE NOT LEATHER BUT THERE IS SOME FAKES OUT THERE THAT ARE LEATHER AND IT SHOULD HAVE A RAIN COAT FEELING. IF YOU GOT A WHITE PAIR BOTH THE FAKES AND REAL WOULD BE LEATHER.
THIS IS THE FAKE BOX: NOTICE THE SPACE BETWEEN BEATS AND PRO AND THE 'TM' IS AFTER BEATS NOT PRO.

THE FAKE PAIR: DRE'S FACE IS LIGHT AND DARK NOTICE HOW YOU CAN HARDLY SEE HIS EAR.

THE FAKE PAIR: I KINDLY CIRCLED. THERE IS A STICKER HOLDING THE BOX. (IT'S ON THE CORNER ON THE BOTTOM BETWEEN THE WEBSITES AND BEATS PRO.)

  1. Thank you SO SO SO much!!! I've been searching for this everywhere! I had a doubt because I purchased a pair form Thomann.de, and it was not listed as an authorised dealer on the actual Beats website. So I tried so hard to find any indications If they are real or fake! Again I appreciate this!!

  2. Is it true that the fake beats pro have a big cleaning cloth and the real ones have a folded one?

    1. Hi,
      Sorry about my previous response. Yes that is true. The fake Pros come with a flat packed cleaning cloth, but the real ones come folded.

  3. Interesting, I got a fake pair of beats detox and they sound great! It has decent bass but I would definitely give it a more neutral sound signature when compared to any of the beats I have tried. I use my other headphones to do a baseline comparison (ie. Ath-m50, sennheiser hd's) the fake ones I got must have been a lucky pair!

  4. I didnt understand... If THERE IS a sticker between dr dres picture and the front of the box its fake or not?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. This is my personal experience. Those stickers are usually used to hold the top of the box with the sleeve on the real ones, but on MY fakes it was used to hold the sleeve together. The best way to spot fake pros is the space between BEATS and PRO on the bottom left of the box. If there is a space between beats and pro then its a fake.

    1. It is on a sticker. The fakes do not even have a serial number.

    2. Hello. I would like to buy Beats Pro sea blue limited edition. I found ones but there is not serial number above the earcup. Only at box. Does it mean they are fakes? Thanks

      Delete
    3. Hi,
      Avoid! Beats By Dr.Dre never made 'limited edition' sea blue pros. All eBay sellers that sell fakes say that the headphones they are selling are limited edition.

  7. nice but what if you don't have the box anymore how is it a good way to tell if the beats are fake on the headphones

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Oh trust me! The built quality on fake pros is horrendous compared to the fake studios. You could tell by the Beats Pro not having a serial number on the actual headphone (slightly above the ear cup). The Beats pro should have a soft aluminium feel and lightly brushed.

  8. So everytime there is a tm In between the beats and pro it is automatically fake?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Well yes. There should be NO space between beats and pro on the box. It should be beatspro. Not beats pro.

  9. Mine have evidence of fake real. My cable has the coil close to the adapter and the serial number sticker like the real ones, also do not have a sticker on the box like the picture, but have the flat cleaning cloth, dre's face is a little dark, and the tm is after the beats not the pro????

    ReplyDelete
  10. Also the aluminum on mine have a brushed aluminum feel and look to them.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Hi Jon,
      Yes they are mean't to have that brushed aluminium look. Is the line of 'beats' and 'pro' spaced out like the one seen in the picture? If so they're fake. The real ones should be written like this 'beatspro' not 'beats pro'.

      Thanks,

  11. Just giving you a heads up. the fake pairs can have serial numbers. I just bought a pair from Ebay and they had a serial number, but when you go to register it on beatsbydrdre.com it says that the number is already on file. that is how i figured it out.

    1. Hi,
      Thanks for that! Were they the Detox Pro's? Because the fakes have serial numbers.
      The new non monster beats pro have serial numbers too.

    1. Hi,
      If they are not the Detox Pros and have a serial number, I am assuming they are real. The aluminium on the real Pros is not brushed as much as it is on the fakes ones. So yeah, I think they are real.

  13. do the authentic Beat Pros have plastic earcups or are they metal like the rest of the frame? I bought used pair, with serial number, etc. and the earcups are plastic. Thanks

    1. Hi,
      The real Pros do have a plastic earcup with comfortable cushions, and so as the fake ones.

      Delete
  14. Also..a heads up. You can put in ANY number in at beatsbydre and it takes it. NOTa good verification tool.

  15. Just to give you some info about the beats pro... The debut design of the box for the pros had a space in between the lower left hand text, however after the monster-Dre split, revisions were made to all beats products. The reason for most fakes having the space is because they picked the earliest design and kept manufacturing it. Some people may notice that the serial number is on the left earcup instead of the right; these are certainly not fakes, as they are eligible for warranty and validity, but this indicates a refurbished product. At one time there may have been one on the right earcup, but after the product was refurbished it was removed and a new serial number was put in place on the left earcup meaning it was refurbished.

    1. Hi,
      Even before the split, it did not have a space between Beats and Pro.

  16. So this guy im buyin them from doesnt have a box how am i suppost to tell if there real or fake without lookin at the box... wont there be a signature and the serial number inside the battery compartment

    1. Hi,
      Beats Pro do not take batteries. The only way to spot a fake, is to see if there is a serial number sticker above the earcup. That tip is only for the black or white pros. The fake detox's have serial numbers too.

  17. Hi - I've just bought some white studio beats from an eBay seller. They were described as the new 2012 models after the split from monster. Is there anything in particular I should be looking for? For example - do all dr beats models have a red inner box? Should all the text, bar the red, be white, not gray. Many thanks

  27. I bought Beats Pro headphones on Ebay about a week ago. They worked for 2 days, then you could only hear music coming from whichever headphone had the cord in it. I took apart one headphone to check if the wiring was disconnected, and there are 2 wires that are spliced together with masking tape holding them together. The seller claims that this is a standard practice when they are assembled in factory. I think I have been ripped off. Does anyone know if this is the practice during assembly? I also think the Beats Pro are fakes. Space between beats and pro, as well as "tm" after beats.

  28. I have a beats pro with a non detachable cable. That means its firmly shut in there. Does that mean its a fake?

  31. Hi, I just bought myself a pair of white Monster Beats Pros at a quite attractive price on an auction site here in Poland and I'm having real trouble establishing with absolute certainty if they are real or fake. The box looks exactly as it should, I was able to register the serial number on the Beats website, the cable looks ok and they feel and sould really really good. But two things I spotted make me doubt - I got this little 'Welcome to the world of Monster' pamphlet and a little small black cloth...any chance I just got a really good replica? One more thing, I saw the exact same serial number online at a different auction site, is it possible for two sets of Beats to have the same serial number? Would appreciate some feedback, thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I also purchased some cheap pros. Packaging seems to all check out re: spacing, TM, pictures, spelling, box construction, serial number sticker and also the sound quality etc of the actual earphones. The sound is really good....I love music and have some high quality technics DJ earphones too, so have a good idea of quality sound. However like the other comment above the earphones had a crappy Welcome to the world of Monster booklet. No manual with a picture of lady with beats earphones. Also no warranty booklet. The sound and everything else seems quality??? Wondering if they are fake though given crappy booklets???

  33. Hi there,

    If the inside of the headphone on the headband in the inside says "beats pro" with a space and has one "m" on one side is that fake?
