Your best bet is to pay a few extra dollars and get someting that you know will work correctly. I have always been one to buy OEM chargers and cases...why? Because I know they were built for the specific phone or phones...and that if something happens I can call that said Manufature and tell them their own product caused damage to my phone or electronic. This will save your ass more than you think when it comes to getting warranty stuff done on phones. You call and tell them your China made off brand charger fried your phone...they may just laugh at you and tell you to buzz off since they don't warranty damage from non branded (OEM) stuff.

Just a word of advice....just trying to save any of you from heartaches and bitching.

This quote seem to fit 63% of all statistics are made up. 9/10 times they won't work? Seriously? Very Picky? Really? What is all of this based on? Have you bought that many chargers and they all failed? Have you tried different power sources and some didn't work?

In general, with USB charged devices, unless they like trickle charges, if it is anything less than 500mah then the device wont charge/recognize the power source. Should always shoot for the 1000mah though.

I don't doubt your logic on sticking with OEM branded stuff to protect you warranty wise, but everything else.... really?
