So first of all, let us discuss some of the dangers of using a fake phone charger, then after that, we will talk about, how you can easily identify a fake phone charger, when you see one, to help you make better, your smart phones charger purchases.
Dangers Of Using A Fake Smart Phone Charger
Fake Phone Chargers Can Kill You
Fake Chargers Can Be Used In Place Of An Electric Water Heater
Because of the same poor materials used in the production of these death machines which we already discussed above, these things can generate a great deal of heat, whether they are being used at the moment, or not, just plug them into your wall socket or extension, and they will begin doing their thing, their own way, without any prior permission. And because of these great generation of heat of these things, they can lead to even greater problems like..
Damaging Your Phone, And Other Nearby Electronics
All phone batteries come with a required amount of voltage, called Wattage, that is just enough to charge the battery under normal circumstances, and any genuine original phone chargers, should have this voltage limiter, and in this case, they are called fuse, which are already built and packaged into them, in order not to damage your phones. But in the case of fake chargers, i'm sorry to tell you, but there is nothing like a voltage limiter, wattage or fuse, and even if there is, trust me, it is still of a low quality, which is still as good as not having one at all. Electric current just comes, and flows around them in whatever way and amount it wishes to flow, without any fuse to stop them, in case of ugly situations. Which simply means that current is directly passed from your wall socket down to your phone. Fake Chargers Perform Way More Slower Than Original Chargers
Fake Chargers Are Just A Way To Extort Money From Your Pockets
Fake Chargers Have No Guarantee







How We Can Identify A Fake Smart Phone Charger, When We See One
Now there are no particular ways, or already set down rules to tell if a charger is fake or not by merely touching and feeling it, unless you tested it. And you might even test it for the first few times and still not be able to tell if it is the fake or original, because most of them will stylishly work and perform very well like original for the first few days, before showing you its true color, and identity. So because of all that, what we are gonna be doing is, we will be using some of the general features of every smart phone charger, to judge if it is actually fake or not..- In case you are buying chargers from known brands like Samsung, Huawei, Infinix and the rest, to identify a fake one, the logos and words printed on them appear to be in some cases too dull, while in most cases, too bright, sharp, and catchy, and they have this high tendency of peeling off when you try scratching them with something as small as your simple finger nails.
- Fake chargers always feels unnaturally and suspiciously lighter, when compared to their original counterparts. But it is so unfortunate that most people don't put these little details into considerations when purchasing stuffs like this, and they end up getting deceived into buying the fake ones, and will keep repeating the same exact mistakes.
- Just like with the logo case i talked about above, most phone chargers, and even electronics as a whole, comes mostly in two colors, and that is either White, or black. So in the case of fake white chargers, it is either they are too white and shinny, or they might have this slightly not very noticeable yellowish tint to it,
and for blacks, the blacks are not always that black, sometimes it might seem like grey, and sometimes its just there.
- They don't do what is written on the package, and sometimes they even come with additional logos and details, which were not spotted on the original.
Left is fake, while right is original. Did you notice the extra details that was added to the fake? Which doesn't even look organised and anything close to genuine.
Left is Original, Right is Fake. Did you notice the extra logos on fake? which still doesn't look organised. - They often come with poor packaging boxes, or even no packaging at all. See comparison below.
- They don't have any certification logos, or stamps.
- The materials with which they are made, always sound and feel low quality like. Most of the times, you will notice slight openings at the places where the two separate parts of plastics are joined and tightened together with a screw, and most of the times also, they come with very rough looking sharp edges compared to the smooth touch feeling you get when you buy the original.
- Their components are loosely put together, in the sense that, when you shake it hard enough, you should hear and feel the components shaking with the movement of your hands.
