Friends, in my previous post, I mentioned that I would be sharing a comparison between real and fake Hinemosu, and now, here it is.
My friend once spent a amount of money on a fake Hinemosu. He lent it to me, and summarized his experience. Now, I’m sharing these insights with all of you in the hope that it can be of assistance, ensuring you don’t fall victim to counterfeit Hinemosu.
First, do not purchase from AliExpress; the Hinemosu there is counterfeit.
Then, let us compare the matte surfaces.
You can notice that the counterfeit’s surface is rougher, while the genuine one has a smoother, crystal-clear texture.
Whether it’s a glossy or matte finish, the counterfeit has a noticeable ring in the center, while the genuine product is very uniform.
Here comes the most obvious difference, which I typically rely on to distinguish between genuine and fake.
Please take a look at the seam between the ring and the body. The counterfeit is overly smooth, lacking any gradients, while the genuine one has an uneven seam.
It might not be clear from the description alone, but when you see the images below, it will become clear.
The above is all I’ve discovered, and I hope it can be of help to everyone. Thanks to the friends who assisted me; without them, I might have been deceived as well. That’s why I’m sharing this experience with all of you, hoping that fewer people will fall victim to deception.
Because English is not my native language, I hope you’ll understand if there are any unclear expressions.
