It's hard to say. But if I were you, I'd get it from a reliable brick and mortar store. It may be more expensive, but you get the real thing.

Compatible Brand: Sony Ericsson

If it is Genuine it normally just says Condition: NEW

I could be wrong tho...

How's the sound? What about the packaging? If the packaging doesn't come with the orange pack, it's a fake.

what about it?! its already a fake... =.=" anyone kno where i can get a trusted site or store where i can buy the actual original one rather than fakes

problem with this kind of accesory is that even brick and mortar shops are already selling those fakes headphones.

Here in the Dominican Republic most of shops with good reputation are selling fakes from ebay?

Why?
Greed, my friends, greed.

The original HPM-82 headset has a rubbery feeling on the fast port plug and there were SE markings on the remote

I checked out a chinese made HPM 70 at a mobile accesories shop.

he said theyre 'original' sony ercissons made in china, as opposed to fake ones

the price was cheap, as expected. Rs.250 - (6 US$)
(without waranty/boxing)

the thing is, I was convinced they were copies until i found the yellow tag which has the device info on it. It looked pretty original.

the sound however was ok, not so great bass.
But then I wouldnt know the difference as Ive never heard an original HPM 70 either

Anyways, the thing is, these fakes are so good (if theyre fakes), that its hard to know if what uve bought is quality stuff unless u buy something boxed from original dealer,

so i also purchased the HPM 82 and it seemed to work well , on my W810i. after a couple of hours it just stopped working . when i detatch then re-attach it to the phone , it works well again for the next 2 to 3 minutes, then it stops working and goes back to loudspeaker mode. my old HPM 75 , works well with the same phone. what could be the problem?

Posted by strizlow800
I would suggest you buy these headset from the official page or some reliable company. Especially for the HPM82 as there are so many fakes of that model around...
