Some people have the habit of leaving their chargers directly on the socket when they are done charging for hours. Why e no go burn.
I have been using my Samsung charger since November last year till now e never burn, and it charges my phone from 0% to 100% under 1hour 20 minutes.

Don't let anyone deceive you, once any follow - come part of your gadget is damaged,,, forget about anything original, na scam
Only in Nigerian, cos most of those supplying the accessories know that we'd rather buy fake cos of the cost than the original. Every phone accessory has original, you can try getting them online.

There's an app for android that might help. It's called ampere. It measures how fast your phone charges. Its what i use. Anything that charges above 1200mmah is good.
the best is accubattery

Even if he flashes it,it's useless to him, immediately he puts it on,with a sim or internet,it displays my phone number and it request that he puts my MI account ID to unlock it.
Don't be too sure.
My brothers redmi 5 got stolen about 3 years ago. We tracked it for a while before it went offline. Turns out it had been successfully flashed, as he later found it with his classmate. grin

Chargers are harder to buy because they are so easy to fake. Lots of fake and its attractive profit margin for seller isn't helping neither.

Buy from online and follow the review closely to know how it has performed for others.

The first thing I'd advice you to do is to narrow your search by dumping two pin chargers.Begin your search among three pin chargers.I use Oraimo charger(the original one O)and it has been as good as my 'follow come'

Aint getting charger now gee got one from friend am using now just need experiences boss,u know we learn everyday
Try that oraimo charger with three pins, look out for the scan code to ensure its original. And one thing that actually makes your charger lasts is you removing it from socket when not in use.

Xiaomi devices have " Find my Device" function. It helps you locate the phone when missing or stolen,it also let you lock the phone, which makes it impossible to be used again unless your Xiaomi account ID is imputed or the phone is dismantled.
If you use a Redmi phone
1. Go-to settings> MI account> to register
2. Input your info like email,phone number and password.
3. You will be giving MI ID
4. Go to MI account> Devices> you will see your phone listed > Find device> On.
Thanks a lot for the info

There is no ORIGINAL CHARGER like the one that came with your phone.

If you loose that one, just find Oriamo

I'd advice you get the oraimo firefly dual output it's relatively fast too.. or any oraimo charger but I'd also advice you get 2.. 1 for your normal NEPA line and another for generators or when you're on the go.. the firefly is around 2k5 but I can guarantee you if you get it from Their site you have not to worry about for at least the next 2years.. this I tested I have and Huawei charger I've had since 2014 follow come Sha ... Then the oraimo firefly I had since 2019 works perfectly well for me

When you say original do you mean fast chargers or the one that will last you for years?

For fast charger I usually go with my phone, plug it and see how fast it will charge within some minutes.
Ampere can save you the stress...download from playstore.

How does one identify original cable
check the USB plug terminal (the one entering the USB socket in the charger) if the 4 terminal below the plug is silver lining it is fake but if it's brownish or yellowish, it's original copper.
Note the wattage:21 w and the cable terminal.

I know they are fast but they dont last long,I need a good charger
Original chargers like anker,oraimo,esanger,new age, itel,mi etc are good, always buy from official stores,check their rating also,as for durability,that one has to depend on luck,pure luck.
Re: How Do I Identify Original Chargers? Fakes Everywhere, Pls Guys by ibawon(m): 3:41pm On Jul 04, 2022
Jejely go to eBay or AliExpress and order Anker charger. Firstly if your phone doesn't support fast charge no matter how strong the charger is. It will still slow charge
Re: How Do I Identify Original Chargers? Fakes Everywhere, Pls Guys by Nobody: 4:02pm On Jul 04, 2022
Kindly go to 'original' shop, you will get original chargers. Plus the fact that you can return such charger if you discovered that it's not working fine.
