Opening Dualshock Sixaxis: Original PCB means original DS?

[ryuks]

Hi
Lately i am opening some of my ps3 sixaxis to change dead batteries. Some of these sixaxis are gifts, others i buyed of second hand... When i open the sixaxis i always check that PCB is (or seems) an original one from this list:

My question is because i always have doubts if one sixaxis with this kind of PCB is 100% original or maybe it is also possible that copies we know from Aliexpress or similar, also copy this kind of PCB. Can i say that if i open a sixaxis and i find one PCB of above list is this an original one??

In case of copies also copy the PCB... how can i identify if a Sixaxis is an original one or it a copy?

Thank you!

If you buy some copy from AliExpress that the pcb looks original, could you please let me know? I don't know about your question, but if the copy is good enough to looks original, I will buy one for tests.
