sorted by- So they're replicas of the AKGs? In other words, not the genuine AKG earphones?
- Why on earth are fake items allowed to be posted on this site?
- Update: 9/1/18
Mine arrived this morning. These earphones are 100% fake. No way are the genuine AKG earphones. Very obvious from the poor sound quality. Vocals are horrendously muffled, like you're listening to something underwater etc. No different sized ear tips. Definitely NOT the earphones supplied with the Galaxy S8. - Got mine today also, they're fake. Should be reported as expired as this is a fake!
- I have bought them a month ago, for same price. They are really good quality and sound is amazingly good. If they are fakes - they have been made very well. All and all they worth £1.50 for sure.

Ouch.. Sounds like someone's had their fingers burned before..
Oh aye, it's happened back in the past for sure. Try to exercise common sense ever since. Once bitten and all that...
Buy cheap crap, get cheap crap. Eh? (edited)- I use the non fake version of these that came with my S8 and they are superb. If anyone thinks the sound quality is bad on these, they are clearly fakes.
- rubbish earphones but can't argue with that price
- £500 phone that comes with these shockingly bad earphones, but at this price ok if you need a disposable pair. Heat added
- Surprised blatant fakes are allowed on here. The logo is clearly meant to look like akg.
- Absolutely ridiculous..Can't believe you've shown me this site called Zapals. I'm going to end up with no wage left. Heat added op.
- OEM means the same people make them and just put a different logo on them
- Ordered 4, heat added thanks guys gr8 find keep it up!

You talked me into it. I'd be very surprised if they are fakes based on your opinion. Ones for £7 on Amazon are fakes and sound terrible, and have virtually zero bass compared to the genuine ones.
Genuine ones sound very good for phone bundled buds. Fairly similar to the Quadbeats that came with the LG G3/4 which were the first decent pair I've seen bundled with any phone.
If genuine, these sound better than the Pistons everyone raves about- I was tempted, then read some reviews of the seller... (edited)
- God I hate this site that's the third thing I've ordered today, and yet another White Bearded Reindeer.
- just got mine - absolute crap ! - but ok for listening to talk radio - music is unbearable - but then again so is all the music on the radio !
Thanks OP - words fail me..... hehe - Paypal refunds all round then?

I can see HUKD taking a real downturn if they carry on this way, I've reported fake goods before on here and no action is taken- Received my two sets today - yup simply cheap garbage and if they are not fakes, AKG might as well give up!
Sent the following email to Zapals
Dear Sirs,
Just received my order today.
Both headsets do not work correctly:
The first set is not working on the right ear.
The second set has more sound coming out of the left side than the right.
Please advise. - Raised the PayPal dispute today.
Both sets defective and likely to be fakes. gtd6511th Jan

Oddly, my one has developed that exact same fault as well.
Mic also doesn't work.
I emailed Zapals but they were useless and started asking for pictures(!) and a photo of the packaging/envelope(!) which I had thrown away.
I also took these earphones apart - 100% fake.
Thrown these away now - just a waste of time, money and effort.
This deal should be -500C for punting fake counterfeit earphones onto so many people.gtd6521st Jan 2018

Terrible retailer. They should be banned on here for selling counterfeit / fake goods.
Incidentally, I completely disassembled mine and it's very obvious they're fake using ultra cheap components. I'm amazed that any sound actually comes out of them given the components - the earpiece is particularly laughable. I'll post some photos in a minute to see what a fake one looks like, but in the meantime, here's what the original should look like:

What exactly were you expecting for 85p??
They were £1.53 each when ordered.
I was only expecting the advertised product on offer, not two sets of faulty fakes.
Did you see the part about "Was £9.21 Now £1.53"...? (edited)jayok12 m ago
Did you see the bit in bold that says 'Note: The product is generic'
If they are generic, why do they have AKG printed on them then?
Full quote provided for easy reference:
The product is a generic(not branded) but it's an OEM(Original Equipment Manufacturer) version of the Samsung AKG S8 Headphones.
It's a rhetorical question, don't worry
If they worked that would be one thing but there is nothing about these headphones that are OEM quality, at AKG or Samsung levels. Just cheap defective crap... (edited)jayok1 h, 46 m ago
Did you see the bit in bold that says 'Note: The product is generic'
Did you notice that the title says "Samsung AKG S8 Headphones with Mic for Samsung Galaxy S8/S8"
If a retailer advertises as that, that is what should be supplied. Otherwise it's tantamount to fraud to advertise one thing and then provide something obviously nothing alike.jayok22/01/2018 13:00
Did you see the bit in bold that says 'Note: The product is generic'
The title should be "Generic earphones" then and nothing else with the description saying they're not genuine and that they're not guaranteed to work properly. Deals shouldn't be posted that result in people being ripped off.- For that price they're worth a try even as a back up pair.
- Not very good sound levels for podcasts but great for calls.
Well worth that money. username.already.taken21/12/2017 20:19

I assume they are fake, but they claim OEM, so that should be the AKG logo, not just look like it surely :/- Heat

Another mass produced poor quality replica crap mega deal what thousands …Another mass produced poor quality replica crap mega deal what thousands will fall for only to be left scorned when they arrive and inevitably disappoint on first usage, soon develop faults or plain just arrive broken, all safe in the knowledge that near enough no-one will actually bother to fully pursue such relatively small refunds.It's a great business model the whole churn 'em out flog 'em cheap effort. Great profit margins achieved for the effort. Zero ethics or responsibility required and all pretty much with zero recourse. The gullible masses deserve all they get...Amazon and eBay is almost entirely propped up on this kinda 'commerse'. Magic!
Look pal, I have them and using every day for 3rd week now-not a single problem. And when you compare these with headphones which came with my S8+ you can't tell a difference.
If they comes broken or you don't like something- just claim money back from PayPal.- Ouch.. Sounds like someone's had their fingers burned before..
- Got these with my S8 very good ....
- Are these a universal fit to other mobile phones?

Are these a universal fit to other mobile phones?
Yes 3.5 jack- Looking at the images (if that means anything), they look identical to the pair I got bundled with my phone. I actually think they sound pretty good.
Fingers crossed these will be genuine.
