I want to buy a spare battery and external battery charger for a Galaxy Note 2. I already have external chargers for both an S2 and an S3 - does anyone know if the Note 2 battery can be charged with either of the same chargers? (e.g. is the battery roughly the same size)?
Edit: scratch that, misread the post.

Presumably you mean the USB charger (i.e. the one that plugs into the phone)? My question concerned the external chargers that charge batteries when they are not in the phone

Well even that. They are all supposed to be interchangeable anyway. I'm using korean note 1, s3, s1, xperia arc s, desire etc chargers. The korean note has an external battery charger which all the chargers seem to work fine with.

S3 has four pins on the battery and and note 2 has three. I'm not sure the last pin could be for nfc since its on the battery in s3 but still I doubt the chargers are interchangeable unless you have one of those really cheap and nasty ones where you can slide the actual charging pins across to meet the pins on any battery.

Anyone know of a decent ac charger that works with the nexus? I have like 5 micro usb chargers from various old phones, but only one or two work with the nexus.
I used the one that came with the phone

I use the one that came with my Nexus One. It's 5W charger, like the Samsung wall wart, but has a cable that's a foot or so longer. I keep the Samsung at the girlfriend's. At work I use a 5V/.85a motorola that I found lying around.
Any brand name charger will work fine. Off brands...well...you get what you pay for sometimes.
Idk if itll help, but I have an HP Touchpad in the house, and the "barrel" like wall adapter and a random micro-USB charge with "AC" power as shown by the nexus.
tl;dr buy an HP touchpad charger on the cheap.

i am currently using this one instead original charger，it works fine. works great on my samsung android phones and iphone4 ， except ipad2.the package with a free usb cable that for samsung galaxy tab . so you need a normal android usb cable, charger really small and great lookinghttp://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150731518...18326&_sacat=See-All-Categories&_fvi=1&_rdc=1
I ordered the International Version of the SGN2 and it'll be here on Tuesday but I have an important question to ask. I watched several unboxings on YouTube and I could help but notice all of them came with the UK prongs for the AC adapter.
My question is how are the north american users charging their new Galaxy Note 2's?
Did you guys buy an adapter? Use a different charger? (If so would the nexus 7's charger work?)
Please advise...

You should be OK with almost any USB 5V charger rated at 1A or more, but a 2A charger, like the Nexus 7's, would be the quickest.

I'm glad you started this thread. This has been on my mind all morning. My GN2 should be here Monday. If anyone has a link to a good 2A charger please post.

I ordered from Negrielectronics so I doubt I'll be getting one. What did they give you? 2A?

My GN2 should be here Monday. If they didn't supply an adapter, I'm just going to run over to my local Radio Shack and pick up one of these.

When you pre order from handtec they throw in a free adapter, and the note charges super fast like 10% to a 100% in 2 and a half hours.

Anyone in Canada (Toronto area in particular) know where to buy one of these?
I know they're on eBay but I can't find it on the source.ca
Any suggestions?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I have American Style adapters with converter prongs, and have been using it on 220v here in Korea. I've used it the other way as well. They all work no problem.

AFAIK, the charging voltage on the Note II is the same 5V as all other phones, thus any USB charger should work. The only difference is in the current rating. A (tablet) charger rated for up to 2A will charge it faster, while others will be slower. Heck, you could use a 0.5A BT headset charger too! It will just take over 24 hours to fully charge the beast.
The current rating is the amount of current the device can supply safely. Its like a tap, the bigger the spout, the faster the water flow.

Actually my s2 charger (5v 0.7a) charges my note2 from 7% to 100% in 5 hours.
I'm considering keeping that charger for daily use as my note2 only charges during the night anyways while im sleeping and I think its more gentle on the battery to slow charge it. And I'll keep the 2A charger for emergencies.

I have Anker Astro.
i sold my old galaxy fit when i bought the note 2 but since my old phone charger had a longer wire so i kept the old charger and gave him the note 2 charger.. cz my bed is a little away from the plug point.
i just wanted to confirm if the specs of the charger are the same.
thnks
They're probably not the same. Note II's charger is rated to 2A (@5V).
The one im using is output 5.0v and 0.7A
Will it cause any damage or any problem...
My note 1 also used a 5.0v 0.7 A charger.

Don't worry: it won't cause damage. It will only take longer to charge.
Thanks a lot buddy!!!

The Samsung Galaxy S4 charger is quite better than the Note 2 charger as they say.

I don't know the amperage of chargers, if it is different, it will affect battery life
I have note 2 and my fiancé have s4 both phones are bought brand new and both chargers are the same 5.0V 2.0A so u can charge with both no problem.

If it takes over an hour to gain 10% battery life thats usually a pretty good sign to use a different charger. Found that out the hard way when i lost the charger that came with my Note 2.
So I've had a wall charger for years with my gn. But I'm moving on to an s4. Does anyone know if there would be an issue using the same charger for s4 batteries?

I don't mean the charger, as in the usb cable. I mean a separate wall unit that you slide a battery into, charging the battery away from the phone.

Oh that think lol ok
That does not sound like a good idea, the volts and amps could be different and it may in fact damage your battery.
