Smartphone: How safe are the cheap chargers and cables sold in the market? Don't use them even by mistake..

Most companies no longer provide chargers with new smartphones. Companies sell chargers separately, which are usually priced higher. In such a situation, most people buy third-party local chargers from the market, which work like the company's original charger.

Do you know whether the use of these local third-party chargers is completely safe or not? Here we are giving you information about the dangers caused by the use of local third-party chargers and cables.

Are local third-party chargers safe or not?

You must have often heard the news of phone blasts. In such a situation, big smartphone companies spend a lot on research and development to make the battery and charging safe to avoid such incidents. This is the reason why the chargers of companies are a little more expensive than the third-party chargers available in the market.

These chargers are also sent for different certifications for safety ratings. But local third-party chargers do not pass any such safety certification, due to which using them can be dangerous.

Danger from third-party cables, too

You must have noticed that when you charge your phone with a third-party local cable, it takes more time. On the other hand, the phone gets charged in less time with the original charger and cable. Along with this, the quality of the local cable is not good. This cable can get heated up and short, due to which there is a possibility of your device getting damaged.

Which charger and cable to buy?

If you have to buy a charger or cable for your phone, then try to buy the charger or cable from the company whose phone you are using. If you find their price high, then buy only good and certified third-party chargers and cables. Make sure that the charger comes with over-voltage protection and a circuit protection feature.

Many important components are not included in cheap and local chargers to reduce the price. Due to this, there is a risk of a short circuit in them. On the other hand, good material is not used in local cables to reduce the cost. In such a situation, if you are buying a third-party charger or cable, then buy it from a good company, and it should be certified.
