This wall charger is really good. Battery is charged faster than with the one I that came with my cell phone.
5 Stars Nokia Caharger
This item works exactly as intended. I received the real NOKIA charger. My phone that I bought from ebay came with an aftermarket charger, that stopped working after a couple of months, you would need to fiddle with it indefinitely to get it to charge and then it would move a mm and stop charging. This charger works every time, so far (a couple of months) without a problem.
2 Stars Beware: This charger does NOT WORK with all Nokia phones – even if the plug fits!
The item being sold here is actually a Nokia AC-4U charger (might be nice to include that information somewhere, seller!). Though it is a “small barrel” charger, it WILL NOT NECESSARILY work with any “small barrel” Nokia cell phone (particularly newer models). Even worse, it may *appear* to work, but not actually charge your phone! This is what happened with my Nokia E51 – the plug fits fine, when I plug it in it beeps and says “Charging” and shows the charging animation. But then when I go to pick it up in the morning, not only has it not charged the phone – the battery is completely dead! It actually *drained* the battery faster by having it plugged in!
The “compatible” charger that Nokia recommends for most of their newer phones is the AC-8U. Unfortunately you’ll find you have to pay substantially more to pick it up. This is what is posted on Nokia’s web site about the AC-8U: “Charge any Nokia device with a Nokia 2 mm charging interface.” Sounds good! Now contrast that to what it says about the AC-4U (the item being sold here):
“* WARNING: Use only batteries, chargers, and enhancements approved by Nokia for use with this particular model. The use of any other types may invalidate any approval or warranty, and may be dangerous.”
Uh oh! That doesn’t sound good! Not only may it invalidate your warrany, it “may be dangerous”. Beware of exploding batteries!
This is inexcusable on Nokia’s part, especially if people have actually damaged their phones this way. It also makes me wonder about what might happen with the “imitation” chargers you can buy at reputable places like Target and Radioshack. Here’s a hint, Nokia: If using an old model charger can cause your phone to explode, alter the connector type so no one uses the wrong one by accident!
