Hey @Julie84, unless the Galaxy Buds Live are poorly crafted, it isn't really possible to tell the difference by just looking at them. To recognise a fake one from a real one, just like with every other device, you will need the model and serial number (S/N) that can be found on the box label. Once you have these, you can get in touch with Samsung Support and they will be able to tell you if it's a fake one, if it was manufactured for the EU/UK market or from abroad.

yeah I did message them But I have them serial number and they said that's 50percent is real to find out properly I would need to take them to s repair centre to get them checked over. pointed out I hadn't bought any yet but was wanting to know as see allot of people selling sealed ones but also read on Google that if they have abc next to barcode they're fake but iv seen alpt about with that in them

might be best just paying that bit extra to buy from a reputable dealer. I know sometimes you can find cheap deals on gumtree or eBay but through a reputable dealer you got a guaranteed manufacturer warranty... besides... you might see some decent online Black Friday deals coming up.

yeah thanks I'm waiting to see if they're is any decent deals on black Friday as u mentioned
