Looking for some good feedback on the best choice.

[Q] cheap 2A charger (Europe)

Hello!
I am looking for some cheap 2A chargers for my G2. The original costs ~15€ !
There are a ton of "claimed to be 2A chargers" on ebay and amazon, I would like to learn if you have tested any of those and they did supplied 2A.
thanks in advance for your help!
Try Belkin or Hama. I never buy off ebay so I can't point to any specific one, but those brands are cheap and decent. They're proper registered brands, (Hama is German and one of the world's largest, Belkin is from the US and also one of the larger brands) so they have to provide what it says on the package.

I couldn't find any cheap hama chargers online, and the belkin ones that come with the EU plug costs the same with the original charger but those with the US plug and an adapter costs half the price, which is strange and could only mean two things, 1, they're fake, 2 belkin is making good money from european customers!
the nillkin option is good....

OEM Cables?

So I recently picked up some USB cables but, I found they are a little loose. The best cable that I have used is the one that comes with the Nexus 6 and presumable their similar flagships. I'm a big fan of how tightly it plugs into both ends. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone knew where I could pick some up (cable only) or a similar option that makes a nice tight connection with the device and type A port because, the aukey ones I bought are a bit loose fitting on both ends.
I love these. The detents on the plug give a satisfying dull thump when I insert it into my phone, and they lock firmly. They look great too. It's a shame they'll be pretty much useless next fall when I move on to my next phone which will most certainly be USB-C.

I use Anker cables. Probably the best I've ever used.

Good quality USB cable

Can any one recommend a place(Indian sites) where I can buy a WORKING USB cable for tab 2? I bought one from amazon but it didn't work. Can you recommend a product which worked for you?
Thanks
Do you have a microcenter near you? I bought a 10 foot and 3.3 foot from there and they work GREAT

If you're lucky enough to be able to pick this up locally, these cables are a steal at $3 bucks. Supports quick charge 2.0 and lasts about a year of daily use.

This. Anker is the only company I will buy chargers and cables from. Very high quality and customer service is world class, should you need it.
Amazon's Kindle Fire cables, I use em religiously. It takes a LOT to make them break.
If you're into buying stuff from chine, I couldn't recommend Aukey enough.
Anker my friend. They are very well built at a good price. Never seen one even wear out. Plus those 5 or 6 packs of powerline from amazon comes with a handy 1 footer for flashing
Anker Powerline+ is the only cable I could recommend. PROS: Amazing strength, quality, comes up to 10 feet. CONS: Few colors, kind of expensive for a cable. Review: The cable is superb quality, and the Powerline+ Series (and Anker in general) has great quality control. Warning: Beware, the regular Anker Powerline (non +) cable that I used to have had a quite low quality tip, and began slipping from my phone's port after a month of moderate use (which to me was a huge deal). My Powerline+ has yet to suffer that, and still provides a great snap and fits snug in my port after 2 months of moderate usage. Bottom line: Worth the price, and it isn't even THAT expensive. Great and probably best overall cable.

3rd Party Cable Too Big?

I have a couple of 3rd party cables and with both it seems like the USB-C connector is slightly too large to fit in the port on the OP5. These cables fit fine on other USB-C ports but on the OP5 it feels like it shouldn't fit in there and that I'm going to break something if I keep forcing it. Anyone had this experience before? Visually they look slightly bigger than the dash cable that came with the OP5 but it's a standard size port so it shouldn't make a difference.
I use Anker cables without issue

Everything fits here too with All of my different cables and adapters
Mine (1x local cheap store, 1x AliExpress with 90° connectors) work just fine. No issues here.
Another vote for Anker cables here, fabulous quality, braided cables and never had an issue with them, I have Anker hubs and they're great too. Should be available from your country's Amazon site. As for the cable you already have, if it "feels too big" (ooer) then I wouldn't force it, you could end up damaging the port and then you're in a world of hurt.
Aukey cables are fitting a little bit more tight (than the original one), but nothing to be concerned about. Better more tight that more loose.
