iPhone 8 case question

[gary77]

Hey guys

I've been after the Spicy Orange case for my iPhone 8 ever since i bought one back in December. I managed to find one on eBay which i picked up. I also picked up another as a friend wanted the case as well, though when both arrived there are slight differences between them like one is a darker orange than the other and the writing

I just wondered if one was a fake (or both) or is it just a different factory that made these cases since Apple don't sell these anymore i can't really go into a store and look in person is there any obvious signs? i took a couple of photos for you guys to check out see.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think the one on the right of each picture is the real one. On the front of the package, the text is supposed to be white. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Apple would ever label their packages as iPhone 7/8. They label it for one specific model. Labeling for more than one model seems like a tactic for aftermarket case manufacturers. On the back, the text on the left package looks like it's stretched and blurry. Also, I think it should simply say Made in China, not the additional verbiage next to it. These are just my educated guesses, so I might be wrong.

I tend to think that the on the right is the real case but I've seen videos which have the black writing on the front of the package instead of white (though not seen one which has iPhone 7/8 on it) like you said it seems to only list a certain model

The one that says "iPhone 7/8" and says "Origem: China" is clearly counterfeit.
