Are you damaging your phone with a 3rd-party charger?

You’ve been told that cheap chargers can damage your phone. Is this a myth, or should you be using an original charger?

The short answer is that using a third-party charger is safe.

BUT poorly made or incompatible chargers could damage your battery overtime.

How do you know when a charger is good?

It should be UL or CE certified, meaning it passed tests for safety & quality.

If your charger is certified, you should see a certification symbol on the product or its packaging.

Companies that make devices tend to recommend only buying their official chargers – to ensure compatibility and safety.

These companies might warn you that your phone could be damaged if you don’t use their original chargers.

But, if you’re buying a product that’s certified, it should be fine.

It’s safe to say that you can charge your devices using third-party chargers – just make sure they’re certified.

So, friends, charge away!
