Hey guys,
I asked this question on the Note 2 forum, but maybe there aren't many users that have a note 2 and have a note 10.1; so I'm hoping that there are more users here that have a note 10 and also have the note 2 (does that make sense?)
The thread is about to jump to page 2, so I don't think I'm getting any hits there. Both chargers say that the output is 5V at around 2A.
No note 10.1 needs more power

They will, it just might take longer to charge is all... I use the same charger from my galaxy tab 7" (1st galaxy tab) and it works fine for my SGS3, note 1 and note 10.1...
Best idea is to try, You won't fry your note 10.1....
i know the gn2 charges fine on the gn10.1 charger with both fast and trickle. I'm pretty positive the gn2 charger would be fine on the gn10.1 since it's a 2A charger. i havent used the charger yet since ive got 2 other 2A samsung chargers.

Galaxy tab 7 charger is the same as. Note 10.1 but galaxy note 2 charger gives less power and you will find a red cross on the battery icon when you charge with it (it will actually charge but it may take all the day to charge it)

As I said, might take longer... Just like when you attach to a USB on your PC... It will charge but a lot slower....
Still a good idea if you need to keep a charger at home and one at work as it's better than not having a second charger at all... Though it's just as easy to attach to a PC...
unless the gn2 is wired differetly than every other samsung device there shouldn't be any difference in charge times as both use 5V 2A chargers im over 90% so i can test fast charge yet. hooking it up does not show the not charging icon so I'd assume it's not trickling. I've read that non samsug chargers charge under 400mA. the gn2 is charging currently at 507mA. I'll have to wait a few hours or tomorrow to see if it fast charges, which im sure it will
confirmed the both work equally. both charge up to 1.5A. i dont see any record of the gn10.1 charger ever going higher than 1.536A.
Well, this clarifies things. I was just wondering as the Note 2's charger is almost half the size of the note 10's. Maybe the size is just an updated design...
At least now I can have one of the device's charger at home and the other at work and not worrying in frying one the device by not using the proper charger.
I want to order the desktop charger for the note 2 and I think that comes with its own charger head....

I answered in the Note 2 forum with:
I have both and was interested in the question as well (do I need to carry both with me or will I have one in my travel bag and one @home).
I checked both and both are rated @2A so their capacaty is the same.
The note 10.1 shows only a 'red cross' in charging on the PC or on a charger from old Galaxy S2.
Now, plugged to the charget from Note II it works with same current than on original charger
Now I plugged the Note 2 into the Note 10.1 charger, and it's charging with same 1.8A as with original charger!
So from my side it's clear, they are interchangeable
I will use the Note 10.1 for home and the Note 2 charger for travel Old charger stays @ home, could make only 900mA...
P.s.: I checked charger currents by reading /sys/class/power_supply/battery/current_now with root explorer.

Interesting, I have the Note 10.1 and the original charger with the original cable only gets me about 1180.

Yes, the reading on 10.1 depends a lot on other topics like loading % and how much energy just used by the tab. Don't ask me why!

The supplied charger on my Note 10.1 takes about 12 hours to full charge my tablet. Is there ANY WAY to charge it faster without burning it out or, is this just the lay of the land?

That doesn't look right. I can charge mine in 3hr fully. Have it checked or try another charger from another 10.1 user.

Are you still using it when you charge it? Mine also takes about 3-4 hours to charge
I have them both and chargers habe the same specs. 2A and 5V so I dont see or experience any problems.
Question 1: Will stock Samsung Galaxy S3 charger fit note 8.0? I'd like to save some room in my bag and don't want to carry two chargers with me. Specifications and sizes of chargers for GS3 and Note 8 are a bit different. Will it damage the tab or is it just going to charge slower?
Additional question if answer to Q 1 is negative: can I use stock usb cable from GS3 with the charger from Note 8? Not having to carry two usb cables could save some room as well Sorry for lame questions, but I'm not a technician.
Yes I use the S3 charger in the UK

Yes will fit, but it will charges slowly becouse it has just 1.0 Amp output and tje note 8.0 charger has 2.0 Amps. I've tried it and it's charging really slowly.

Try using the note charger for the s3.

This. The S3 will "limit" the charging rate to 1 amp instead of the 2 amps it delivers to the Note 8.
Thank you for all replies. Now I know I don't have to carry two chargers with me As for me, this topic can be closed.

s3 charger is at 1amps
while galaxy note 8 is 2 amps
so yes you can charge, but at a MUCH SLOWER rate
Hi i have both Note 2 and 3. Note 3 is mine and Note 2 my mother's. We have the original chargers but my mother likes to keep separate charger at work and she keeps losing the chargers i buy. I don't know what she does with them but we need more chargers again.
I will point out that i compared Note 2 and Note 3 chargers and they are NOT the same ! Note 3 charger, aside from coming with USB3 cable is also slightly chunkier ( just slightly ) and even though both are rated at 2 amps the Note 3 is rated at 5.3 volts while note 2 is rated 5.0 volts.
Anyway, they still charge each other fine.
But i know there are many bad chargers out there, and original ones from Samsung.com are like $50 which i think is too much, considering that even original iPad charger is only $20 direct from Apple.com
I realize i can't buy a third party charger from Amazon that will have same quality as genuine Samsung but if i can get 80% of the quality for $15 compared to 100% of quality for $50 i am OK with that.
i also considered buying an iPad charger because i know it is very powerful and very high quality and only $20 for a genuine one - but i read here on XDA that unless i use a modded USB cable it will not charge at full speed because Apple doesn't follow the USB charging standard.
so what charger do you recommend ? i would like at least a 2 amp charger.
Hello all !
I have a question regarding the charger to use with the S5. I forgot mine at work today and it happens that i have a charger for my Galaxy Tab 3 at home.
They look the same but have different specs.
S5 charger :
Output : 5.3V 2.0A
Galaxy Tab Charger :
Output : 5v 2.0A
Is it okay to use the Tab charger ? It won't damage the S5 ?
Sorry for the "stupid" question but i'm not too good with these things
Thank you very much
It should be fine. Especially since the Output is lower. It might just take a bit longer to charge. Also for future reference so as to avoid the possibility of getting flamed . You should post questions in the Q/A Help Forum Section .
Ok thank you
Any usb micro have to work. That's the main benefit of a Standard cable. You have the difference between charging only cable and full data cable but that's irrelevant, any cable will work.
I've always used my note3 charger on my note 10.1 without issues and I'm very disappointed to see that the quick charger that comes with my note4 doesn't charge my note10.1!
When it's connected the red cross on the battery pops up (this usually happens when a low power charger is used)
Does this happen to you too or have I a broken charger?

No problems for me. I am using it to charge my Sony tablet-z with no problems.

My Note 4 charger charges my Nexus 10 without issues.
The Note 4's charger works on my Note 10.1 2014 ed. It obviously doesn't fast charge my tablet though.
The charger is SUPPOSED to act as a 9V charger when connected to Fast Charge devices like the Note 4, but also act as a 5V charger for any other device. If the device can't use the full 5V (like a phone that only uses 2V or something), the device itself will only draw as much power as it can accept under 5V (2V for example).
If your charger isn't charging your Note 10.1, then the charger could be bad, or maybe even your tablet's charging port. If the tablet charges with other chargers, then I doubt it's the latter.

I get the same thing. I have a note 10.1 and using my note 4's adaptive charger with the note 10.1 charge cable I get the dreaded red x -- meaning super slow charge. All items are in perfect working order (doesn't happen with other 2 amp non-adaptive charging chargers).

So it's safe to charge my S4, Nexus 7 2012 and S2 with my Note 4 stock fast charger? I remember some guy making a thread that it fried his S4...I've been cautious ever since
