AirPods Pro 2
Still the most mature option
Manufacturers are slowly transitioning development focus to newer models. AirPods Pro 2 replicas remain excellent products and are still the most mature and feature-complete option in the Pro lineup. If you want the newest features, AirPods Pro 3 V7 adds a heart rate sensor and AI Hybrid ANC — though it's an early release with quirks worth reading up on before you buy.
Quick verdict: for most buyers the V5.4 Huilian is the best AirPods Pro 2 replica overall, balancing the newest features (iCloud Connect, adaptive audio, close-to-retail ANC) with strong all-round performance. Want the strongest noise cancelling instead? The V5.3 TB leads on ANC. See the purchase links for both.
Shared Pro 2 Baseline
The V5.2-and-newer models compared below share Active Noise Cancelling, Transparency Mode, swipe volume & Force Touch stem controls, a case speaker & lanyard loop, USB-C charging, Hey Siri, in-ear detection, and the iOS About page. Head tracking varies by chipset, especially on V5.3 Lite; see the matrix. Older V5.0 and V5.1 models use Lightning. (Note: No replica supports Apple's encrypted Find My network or retail-grade spatial audio DSP.)
V5.3 TB and iOS 27
V5.3 TB is compatible with iOS 27 on the latest firmware. Connect your earbuds to FlyCC and check for firmware updates. If FlyCC on iOS reports that the earbuds already have the latest firmware, you can update your iPhone to iOS 27.

V5.4 Version Differences:
This version is only an upgrade for Huilian models; it has a few improvements. ANC performance has been improved, and stability seems to be better. Hardware‑wise, nothing has really changed, apart from the chipset. These upgrades appear to be more of some firmware updates that will be restricted to this new unit. Ready to buy?

V5.3 Version Differences:
TB - The TB earbuds are known for their white, tougher case that is more sweatproof than the HR model. They also feature an ST gyroscope, similar to the V4.7 and retail versions, which provides excellent spatial audio. The battery life of the TB model is 8 hours without ANC and 6 hours with ANC turned on. Tuned to be bass heavy. TB has the best ANC among the 5.3 (average 34.5 dB, peak 41 dB).
HR - The HR earbuds have a yellowish, softer case that is less sweatproof than the TB model. The battery life of the HR model is 7.5 hours without ANC and 5.5 hours with ANC turned on. Tuned to be balanced with a slight emphasis on bass. HR also has the best transparency. ANC is second to TB due to the older 1562AE chipset (34.4 dB, peak 39 dB).
Huilian - The Huilian earbuds use a middle‑of‑the‑pack case, firmer than HR but softer than TB, and are equipped with a 1:1 hinge. However, due to the Huilian chipset, ANC is significantly worse than the other two models — 5.3TB and 5.3HR (average 30–32 dB, peak 38 dB). The battery life of the Huilian model is 6 hours without ANC and 4.5 hours with ANC turned on.

V5.2 Version Differences:
TB - The TB earbuds are known for their white, tougher case that is more sweatproof than the HR model. They also feature an ST gyroscope, similar to the V4.7 and retail versions, which provides excellent spatial audio. The battery life of the TB model is 8 hours without ANC and 6 hours with ANC turned on. Tuned to be bass heavy. TB has significantly better ANC than Huilian (average 33.6 dB, peak 39 dB).
HR - The HR earbuds have a yellowish, softer case that is less sweatproof than the TB model. The battery life of the HR model is 7 hours without ANC and 5 hours with ANC turned on. Tuned to be bass heavy. HR also has the best transparency and ANC performance (average 34.2 dB, peak 39 dB), although it is similar to TB in most situations.
Huilian - The Huilian earbuds use a middle‑of‑the‑pack case, firmer than HR but softer than TB, and are equipped with a 1:1 hinge. However, due to the Huilian chipset, ANC is significantly worse than the other two models — 5.2TB and 5.2HR (average 30–32 dB, peak 38 dB). The battery life of the Huilian model is 6 hours without ANC and 4.5 hours with ANC turned on.
