They do sell genuine product but there are products you can never get as original on Aliexpress. For instance, JBL is an American company and a subsidiary of Samsung but Harman International is responsible for all aspects of the production of its speakers. So to have their genuine products on Aliexpress won't be easy.

Just like a none refurbished IPhone (BRAND NEW), you can barley fine one on Aliexpress.

If you are looking for genuine BT speakers on Aliexpress, you can get ANKER, TRIBIT etc.

NOTE: They are midrange, compared to JBL, HARMAN KARDON, BANG & OLUFSEN, BOSE etc.

No wonder whenever i type some brand names on the search bar, it keeps bringing other names, i see!

Thanks for this info!

Don't be confused, buy from anker official store. It's even free shipping to Nigeria and the cost is about $70 now. But know that the final price will be more than your calculated amount if you buy it through other platform with black market rate , unless you use the official rate.

Thanks for this insight bro, I'll always check official stores then b4 purchasing

I really need a good portable player for new year, I'm really getting fed up a bit about originals & clones on this aliexpress

More clarity is highly welcome

Thanks @all

That boombox sells for around $300 in Amazon. The original costs that much, that AliExpress type is definitely a clone of the real deal.

I see!

Now I'm seeing Anker soundcore motion+ at #38k, could that perhaps be a clone too?
Comments are mostly positive with over 75k orders

How do one know which product is good one or a clone apart from price range

Destinylink:
It's not the original JBL o. If you even go through buyers review, you'll see some comments that its just a replica.

Nawa o, first few pages i went through, thd reviews were just positive about how good the product was, does that mean most products there are just a replica of the original?

Is this why almost everything there is very cheap?

If so, will it not be best i enter open market like Main market, Onitsha & buy my stuffs?

Technology Market › Re: This Thread Is Only For Aliexpress Shopper by icon91(m): 12:49pm On Nov 26, 2022

Babalegba:
It's fake and most people who bought it knew they were buying a replica hence the good ratings. I almost fell for it a few months ago until I read one comment from one person who said he compared it to the original.

So it means most of the products they sell are replica or is this applicable to just some brands?

Do you know if there's a way you'll know genuine products, if you can give me some insights, i'll be glad

Thanks fam

I wanted to purchase a Jbl boom box 2, i was seeing it at #30k+ on aliexpress under 'hot deals' which was slashed at -65% fro #87k plus

I checked the store and the rating is 95% plus, with over 600 units sold at reviews of 4.9 stars

I checked thesame Jbl boom box 2 on both Jumia, Konga, Jiji...they were all above #280k plus, i even checked an official site, it was $499

I'm highly skeptical about this, this is the first purchase i'm making on aliexpress, can you guys clarify me about product quality & how genuine aliexpress products are, I'm confused, really confused!!

Thanks guys
I have given ADM a try, it's not bad
I still use UC Browser to Surf/Browse but once I'm about to download i use ADM
UC browser has lost its glory because auto resume downloads of heavy files is its main trademark
In the past, nothing will make you loose your midway downloaded files, whether you're downloading from sites that their links expire after every session, bad network providers etc
So long as the .dltemp file is there, with a little trick, you must resume your downloads,(by removing the downloaded parts from uc downloads folder using file explorer, restarting the downloads again, once it's about 1mb or so, pause it, then go back to your uc downloads, delete the new file alongside its .dltemp file, paste back the old partly downloaded file in same uc downloads directory, go back to your browser, resume your download, it will automatically continue from where the first download stopped) i used to download games of 6gb and more and have never lost my files for any reason(s) using older UC browsers
Nowadays, UC takes up so much space, it's slow at times, too much ads..e don cast
At all at all sha, i dy still manage am alongside ADM
PS: Older versions/turbo versions as suggested by some guys here can't be installed

Phones › UC Browser No Longer What It Used To Be by icon91(op): 3:46am On Apr 03, 2020

Hi guys, i have been using UC browser for years now, it has been quite helpful in resuming downloads for files(heavy and small alike) after interruptions either from exhausted sub, network fluctuations, expired links etc, usually little tricks are been applied using the .dltemp files which is a temporal file created alongside files currently being downloaded to continue your downloads in a worse case scenario, with that you can never loose your heavy files like games, videos...that stopped midway, but i have come to realise that from version 11 to the current version of UC Browser for android, the .dltemp file doesn't exist again, i have lost some files that stopped midway due to absence of this .dltemp file, i did report about this on play store but no positive reply so far, i know some guys are facing this same issue, pls guys that download heavy files using phones, is there any other browser or download manager that will ensure not losing your files midway, or any way to work around these not so good new versions of UC browser to ensure your full downloads?

Family › Re: My Wife Insists No Sex Until Wedding Night Even After Our Traditional Wedding by icon91(m): 2:03am On Oct 31, 2019

Well, the solution here is quite simple
Firstly, you respected her opinion of no sex until after wedding(Trad & White probably), why do you want to compromise that @this point where you've invested much?

1- Two things are involved with this virginity issue, either she's lying about it to trap you till you've done all the needful or she is actually a virgin who wants to keep things religiously till the end according to her faith.

Solution 1: Take her to a private clinic for a personal virginity test(make her see reasons why), if she is confirmed to be one, then save up for your white wedding and fully appreciate her, but if the test shows she's not a virgin, then you have two options

Option 1: Return her bride price to her people, count your loss and move on because if foundation starts with this level of love scam, trust me you'll regret it bitterly too soon

Option 2: Carry on with the relationship if after finding out she's not a virgin as she claimed and you decided to forgive n forget after whatever reasons she might come up with, e.g i thought I'll lose you blah blah blah..she will have not much options than to give you the sexual life you crave for and patiently wait for the white wedding.

PS: Virginity is not really a big issue before marriage these days, but since she has made it a real bullet point, make your choices carefully to avoid stories that might disturb the heart later
