The perfect USB-C memory stick (cable) haha - Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories

Just got this one from Amazon. Really smart USB-C stick, as it doubles as a USB-A and transfer cable. It can also be used for charging, but doesnt work for Fast charge, only slow.
I even got a kickstand with mine, so it can be used to hold phone in movie-viewing mode =)
Lexar JumpDrive C20C, 64 gb. 150 mb read speed and 60 mb write speed per second.

Yeah but becare using it with a case. Some cases don't have a wide enough slot to plug these in without taking it out of the case.

No problem, its smaller than the original Samsung charger cable, but maybe a quarter of a millimeter thicker.

As for the kickstand.... all pressure weight on charging port. May not be an issue, but I would be cautious

fast charging?
If my anker powercore supports fast charging, will this then uses that feature or will it only slows charge, do you know?

Isn't that a bit too large to carry around?

[Q] How long is the charging cable for the S3?

The cable I have now for my current droid is only like 12-18inches long and its rather annoying. How long is the cable your S3 shipped with?
thanks in advance!!
Just over three feet .
I have a shorter 16 inch lead but that is to short .
jje
Not long enough. I had to use a different 1.5m USB cable because the original won't stretch from the plug to the table by my chair.
Can you use any standard usb to mini usb cable? I agree, it's too short :-(

I bought an OEM Samsung Wall charger for my GS2. I use that with my GS3. It's about 4 feet long.

Yes you can use any cable with the adapter..
Just try not to use one of the really low quality cables though.

Bad Charger?

So, I'm using the charger that I got with the s4 when I bought it. Recently it has been charging extremely slow and I don't know why. I've only had it for about 2 or 3 months so I don't know what happened or how.
This is what I get with my charger, around 400 mA or so

Now, with my friend's charger who also has an s4, about 1300 mA
Did my charger just take a crap? I guess the next thing to try would be if it's the cable or the base.

It very well could of generally when they crap out they stop working altogether. If you have one or can get one I would try both the base and the cord to try and eliminate what it is. I would also clean the port on your phone as well that could be giving you some resistance of theres any debris in it.
Hit thanks if I helped you out. Doing a little bit of reading goes a long way. Sent via tapatalk.
Looks like it's the cable itself. I looked at the plug that goes into the phone and seemed slightly crooked, so I bent it back a little bit with my fingers. Now it charges around 1000 mA which is decent. Guess these things are just really touchy. :what:

Question about overseas charger

I have bought this charger which I thought was UK... It seems it's US plug even if we have 220v compare to 110/20V in the US... But I was using a UK to EU adapter causing the seems to be original charger ti have a hell of slow charging and sometimes even drain if i was using tunein while charging... I wanna ask that by using a wrong adapter I'm loosing power or just that this charger sucks? Thanks

Hard to say, if it is a LG charger for the G3 it should work, but the adapter could be bad too. We travel a fair amount and find it is always best to invest in good quality adapters.
I have had problems with 500 ma chargers doing the same thing, charging really slowly and discharging slowly when using the phone. I can't see what the specs are on the adapter, it should be 1A Output at 5V.
No, it should be 1.8A
The charger is 1.8A but the adapter is cheap...

Pls advise between these two chargers

The top one is the charger for the free Zuk power bank when I purchased the Z1. The bottom one is the charger that came with the Z1. Will the top one work equally or better than the original Z1 charger?

Go with Zuk Charger
The Zuk charger is the best option for now coz it has 2.5A of O/P voltage which can charge faster.

Right. I can leave the other charger at home and use the Zuk charger for both phone and power bank. Pointless carrying around 2 chargers.
Plz avoid using 3rd party chargers unless its branded or it meets the specs. The use of 3rd party charger many damage ur phone as well as the "Type C" cable which are too pricey!!!!
an any 1tell me from where I can get Og charger in India??

Buyer beware - Don't get this particular Aukey cable

I really have nothing against Aukey, I've been using their products for years but this was surprising and disappointing to me. Last night i plugged my phone in and it wouldn't charge. Upon inspecting the USB tip came off while sitting inside my charger. It wasn't due to mishandling as the end that goes into the charger stays there dormant in the wall outlet and I only plug the opposite end in to my phone when I need to so it was strange to see it break off that way. I honestly think it's part of a bad batch but I will opt for a cable with a better quality connector end going forward. It was within my return period so no problems. Other than that the cable works just fine. I will still buy from Aukey, just not this one. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B087QK2LB2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Concerning, I've had the same happen from Aukey.
I went for some no name cable instead afterward.

Yeah these work just fine with no issues. I think the tips were poorly constructed so cheap is not always best.
good to know, thanks!
