hey, i am looking fo a charger OEM, since i have forgot mine in the hotel
so what is really concerning is that i have found a seller on ebay is selling OEM charger for $17!!!
i am asking if this can be true since in my opinion Aliexpress is more trusted than ebay " at least i can see the feedbacks"
This One
And this one
and what is your openion on this
SONEic - USB Type-C AMAZON
I know Amazon is safer since they have banned all uncertified type C cables....
Basically every charger is made in China and since Huawei is a chinese company and these ebay sellers are from China, it wouldn't surprise me that these chargers on eBay are legit although in my experience I would advise caution . As for the charger you have linked on Amazon, I haven't tried that one but I bought this one and haven't had any issues so far.

To be brutally honest with you, and this may seem a bit elitist and privileged to some, but I wouldn't trust my $600 phone with anything but an original charger or one bought directly from Google, and not Huawei, not ebay or amazon, and this goes for both chargers and cables.

Considering Google only makes 2 mediocre chargers (dual port 22W, and tethered 15W) I would rather get a 3rd party one. I have the Google dual port type C charger, but I also have ones from Choetech and Tronsmart that all work just as well as my OEM charger. I rarely use my OEM, in fact it's been in my drawer of chargers for a while now because other companies made better more versatile chargers. OEM chargers don't always use the best circuitry to control voltages, current etc, but with 3rd party chargers they have incentive to make better charges due to the intense competition. I witnesses this with my HTC 10 stock charger and Samsung one from my S7 Edge; OEM isn't always the best to say the least.
I've been very happy with the BlitzWolf charger

The thing is google store isnt available in my country and there is no work around, although I have a us shipping address :/
I'm using a Choetech charging station that's reasonably priced (slightly higher than what your looking at) and I've got to say it charges in very similar times to the original OEM charger, it also has the added benefit of being able to charge my smart watch and tablet at the same time too. Perfect for people who don't want chargers plugged in all over the place.
Here's a link:

Hope this helps.
Wireless chargers' price seem to range from $5~50.
For example a charger from amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Ult...&qid=1480795129&sr=8-1&keywords=ailun+charger) costs $5 while Samsung's one costs $20. They both charge at 5V 1A (hence perform similarly) but one is more expensive than other
What is the difference between cheap ones and expensive ones?
Are cheap ones not safe to use compared to expensive ones?
Thanks!

Just a small thought that maybe useful,
The more expensive ones may have a better build quality/more reliable parts. That being said, it may just be more expensive because of the brand name as I know it tends to be that way a lot with some Samsung products.
I've used a bunch of chargers around my house that are all 5V - 1.5A and one day I used my moms Samsung charger and it charged 3 times faster (think it was 5V -2.5A). If you use a device that supports fast charging, it might be a good idea to get a fast/lightning charger as it will save you a lot of time.
Hope this may get you rolling a bit in the direction of which Ines best for you!
Hi,
I've just bought the Nilkin MagicTag Type C Wireless charging receiver for the Mix. Considering how long the battery lasts, I realized I could live with the slower charging speeds of a wireless charger. I have only bought the receiver as of now and I need to buy a couple of wireless charging pads\stands.
I've seen a lot of cheap ones on ebay but I understand that there are a lot of fake ones being sold on ebay which doesn't offer close to the promised output.
Can someone suggest a reasonably priced good quality wireless charger? Thanks in advance!

Get the Samsung Fast Charge Wireless Charger,whether it be the stand,or,the less expensive model that lays flat:
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/mo...charging-stand-black-sapphire-ep-ng930tbugus/
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/mo...s-charging-pad-black-sapphire-ep-pn920tbegus/
You can get these virtually anywhere for less than MSRP,however,ensure that what you're getting is indeed the Samsung branded one (lots of identical knockoffs that don't have "SAMSUNG" on the face of the charging base).
Also,some legit items are quite a bit cheaper as they may not include the charging cable & Samsung 2a adapter.
If you already have that,then the less expensive model(s) make sense.
Otherwise,read the fine print to ensure the cable & wall adapter are included.
Any 2a or above should be sufficient,but,don't expect high speed charging,due to the sticker you have not being able to provide it.

Apparently there are a lot of knockoffs with the Samsung logo being sold on ebay and Amazon. Its hard to determine whether the one we are getting is the real deal until we have it in hand and closely observe it. Check out these videos on youtube.
Samsung Real vs. Fake Wireless Charger
The only way to ensure that we get the real deal is to buy direct which costs around $50. Considering the Nilkin Magic Tag doesn't support fast charging, I don't think the 2A fast charger is any good.
Are you using a wireless charger? Is there a faster receiver available?
Since, this is my first time using wireless charging, does using fake wireless chargers cause any harm to the device? Like heating issues? Or is the only drawback lower charging speeds?

I don't use knock-offs of anything,if they're going to be deceptive about what/who they are,I sure as Hell am not about to encourage their shenanigans by rewarding them with my honestly-earned $$$.
With no regard for being genuine,I'm certain they couldn't care less about the safety of what they sell.
Also,the el-cheapos tend to be tempermental about charging,having smaller/weaker/fewer coils.
The Samsung chargers are discounted periodically,you just have to look around.
Regardless,you will pay a bit more vs knockoffs,but,you get what you pay for & believe me,w/wireless charging,it's worth it.
Otherwise,you might as well just plug-in the ol'school way....................
The only other brand I recommend is the TYLT stand:
https://www.amazon.com/TYLT-Wireless-Charger-Galaxy-Phones/dp/B00DG8NUC8
It's not fast,but,is reliable.
They only real drawback for this one is the proprietary cord/adapter.

Is there a sticker which supports 2A fastcharging? I ordered the Nilkin Magic Tag based on the reviews on amazon. But unfortunately, it only supports upto 1A charging.
If you know of one, please suggest.

1A is the highest rated one I've seen to date & outside of Samsung devices,I don't think there's anything,whether it be accessories/stickers/phones,that support/include fast wireless charging.
I made a while thread about this with the many different items I bought

There are definitely receivers charging faster

Thank you for the links. Unfortunately, Amazon doesn't offer international shipping on the items you've mentioned.
For now, I've managed to get the Nillkin Magic Tag and a Nillkin Magic Disk III Fast Charge Edition.
I wanted to get the Samsung Wireless Fast Charger but they are priced ridiculously high in New Zealand and its hard to say which one is the real deal on ebay! They have even managed to create knockoffs with the cooling fan built-in making it almost impossible to identify the genuine one from the knockoffs.
So I got a reasonably priced fast charger from Nillkin which claims to support Fast charging on compatible devices.
Guess I'll have to live with the slightly slower receiver until something faster is available for International buyers.
Cheers!

here is what i learned. unless your USB C tag is also fast charge you won't see any difference.
i had both the nillikan and the one that i linked which claims fast charging. unless everything in your setup is fast charge you aren't going to see the difference. with just a regular nillikan tag and the fast charger it will be normal. you need to get a fast charge tag - check Ebay.

Yes. I am aware of that. I just bought the fast charger as the price difference between the standard variant and the fast charging edition wasn't much. Moreover the standard variant was out of stock when i ordered.
If at some point, a fast charging receiver becomes widely available, I can make use of the fast charge feature.
Till then, I'll have to adjust with standard wireless speeds.
All of the generic tags currently available on ebay and the Nillkin Tag only support upto 1A charging as mentioned by KOLIOSIS earlier.
So I thought I'll get the Nillkin one as Nillkin is a decent brand. Some generic ones don't even come close to the speeds they claim.

I can vouch for the TYLT stand. I have two of them and they work great. It's definitely faster than the other flat style charging pads I've used. I gave one to my son for his Nexus 6, and he loves his too.
Hi everyone. So I'm going to buy a OnePlus 6, coming from a Note 4 (I'm long over due!) and I'm looking into buying additional cables and chargers and such. So naturally I go to Amazon to look for my things. But one thing that keeps coming to mind is "Wait, isn't Dash Charging only able to come from OnePlus itself/OEM? If so, then how come off brands are providing Dash Charging?"
For example: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FJNH8P6/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza
This company TITACUTE has high reviews of their products and is also labeled as "Amazon's Choice". Their OnePlus items are described as able to provide Dash Charging.
So my question: Can this brand "TITACUTE" make chargers with Dash Charging or is it only official OnePlus items from their site or Aliexpress, etc?
Thank you!

I would be curious to know this as well. I don't need a cable fro now but when the time comes, it could become handy !
I bought one identical to this one , but with a different brand ( Acocobuy ). It works with dash charging , I get the lightning logo when I plug it.
