Looking to replace my oem S4 charger, I realize the samsung one is high quality and charges at 1900mA, but I don't want to spend $40+ on a charger..anyone have any good and cheaper alternatives, what will charge at least at 1200mA, links please? I been looking around amazon and online but I'm scared to get some cheap chinese ones.

Any other charger will charge slower than the official Samsung one because of the way it implements a quickcharge spec. That said, I use this one and it works well - but definitely slower than the Samsung one:

Any cable should be fine as long as it meets USB specs. I got a bunch on Monoprice that work great.

I bought this one:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CQS0S7E
It's probably NOT true OEM, but it does charge my S4 at 1900mA. However, the cable that came with it did not work. It won't even fit on the s4, or any other microUSB ports. It looked used/broken. I am using a regular USB cable from monoprice and it works fine.
btw, I ordered from BLUTEKUSA. I don't see them on the list of sellers right now, so it might be dangerous to buy these as there are a lot of negative reviews on the other sellers.

If you would have searched the titles of threads in this forum for the word "charger" then you would have found my thread. Please remember to search in the future, if you did not this time.

Huh, what?!
lol
Bought a very cheap original Samsung Note2 charger here, does the job wonderfully.
Here's a small review of some charger I tested:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44651947&postcount=128
Seems like the blackberry playbook charger is all good, charges the phone perfectly and efficiently.
I am using the iGO Dual USB Wall Charger for Tablets. It has two 2.1Amp ports, comes with a 6 or 7 foot USB cable and the A97 tip for charging. Works wonderfully and found it on clearance at RadioShack for $8.98. I can charge my iPad and my S4 at the same time with no issues.
Has anyone had any luck with aftermarket replacement batteries (mostly found on ebay from hk/china sellers)?
Hey
I've searched on Amazon but I couldn't find anything that will ship internationally
are the chargers on ebay good? is there other site that sells chargers and ships internationally ?
Thanks

Wow thanks man !
I think I'll order one to test it out
I searched hard through the forms to find the best charger for my pixel and I've decided that the universal 22.5 one google sells is the one I want. However it has been sold out on their site for ages!
I've looked through the sheet the USBC developer made and the top rated chargers are the 18w and 22.5w ones.
I'm sold does anyone have a link to snag them. I'm looking for atleast 2 (office and spare). I have 1 18w and if someone knows where to get those I'd gladly look at your source as well.
Ideally I want to steer clear of non oem chargers if possible(I have an Anker one that's great but that was lucky imo).
Thanks :good:
Can anyone recommend a good car charger for the V30? Thanks!
Any one that is quick charge 3.0. I recommend Anker.
I'm curious to know if there are any American or Japanese made chargers. I see plenty of reviews of various brands but nobody actually cracking these things open evaluate the quality of the components inside.
I've been using a Belkin car charger I picked up last year for my V20. It has a hard wired lead for the USB-C and an extra USB port if you want to plug in another device.

Last year we had Benson. His charts are still around the internet somewhere. Not sure if he's still testing cords and chargers or if he's given up at this point.

I have one of these. I bought one for my girlfriend, as well.
