Galaxy Note II and Galaxy Note 10.1 Chargers Interchangeable?

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.

[Q] Will Samsung Galaxy S3 charger fit note 8.0?

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

[Q] It is like hell.... Please help me out from the HELL...

I'm from India and I buy SCH-R530U and its working fine but my big big big problem is the charging point or the charger. When I plug the charger its some time charge or some time not. I plug the charger whole night but charge is very slow and I changed the charger and used Indian S2/S3 charger but its not working. Then I check that the USC S3 charger and Indian S2/S3 charger input voltage and output voltage are much difference. So my question is, If I go to Sumsung Care and changed the charger point to Indian S3 I9300, its working or not??? After put Indian S3 charger point to my mobile charging, data transfer or video output working good or not???
Please reply as soon as possible.
Thanks...

First of all your in the USA variant of the S3 Verizon version, your speaking of the US Cellular version. I'd personally trade it for the international S3. It sounds to me like the charging port on the phone is shot. Best bet would be to replace the phone unless you can get someone to fix it or fix it yourself.

Agree, sounds like that charging port. Easy solution is to get a wireless receiver and a charging pad (you'll never need the cord in the port again)

Fast charger included? UK

Hi, did anyone with a UK spec galaxy S6 get a fast charger included with the phone? I keep reading that the fast charger is included but mine only came with a normal one (EP-TA10UWE not EP-TA20UWE). If you did please state if it was a standard S6 or and S6 Edge. Thank you

Mines still in the box I'll take a look later lol

My 32gb S6 came with the fast charger, has adaptive fast charging written on it

I got the fast charger with mine. But using a generic 2a charger and wireless charging pad.

Adaptive fast charger is included on all S6.

UK here, fast charger included.

Hey i recently bought an S6 and have the same problem. Do you think this is a manufacturer's fault? Have you sorted it out? Thanks.

Fast charging Question

Not sure if I should post this here or Q&A ......but I'm wondering about something. I used to have an S6 and all that remains is the wall part of the adaptive fast charger. I just recently bought a Note 4 off of Craigslist that has a wonky battery with issues (looking into finding a replacement as we speak). I tried using the S6 charger piece and it charged the phone a little too fast and sent my phone into total confusion. So is the S6 fast charger different mah or power than the Note 4? Are they not compatible? Would I have to order a charger specific to the note 4 for fast charging? Or is it just my battery?

The wall chargers are the same. Even with the s7 Samsung decided to stick to the same charger.
