I've had 6 mobile phone chargers (including the original) in about 11months now. So i guess i'm kind of used to it. But these last two chargers were bought within this month. Two different chargers bought from two different mobile stores. I cannot believe this.
Well thank goodness I have a docking station which is not ideal but i've got no choice. This saves me for the night.
6 chargers and counting tsk tsk..

@MGjhaud wow! a new phone that is. Same with IPhone, right? The battery is inside this hard shell and I just have the notch/opening where I can insert the rectangular piece of the charger.

Whoa! That's a lot!
I bought my phone and charger in December of 2010 and until now, I am still using them as my main phone.

@MGjhaud Yes, but I am already looking for a phone that could replace it. I have problems with the battery and the memory, but I can still deal with it. I still haven't found a good replacement phone. I am waiting for a better one.

That many broken charger in just 11 months? Wow!
You should buy another 6 more chargers just in case. Lol
There could have been some problem with compatibility. Try using a same specifications charger listed in tge manual. And also unplug charger when not in use.

Are they OEM chargers? Or could it possibly be the part the charger plugs into on your phone? Sometimes it can get out of whack or bent when it only charges at certain angles. Ihave had phones with that issue. Because that sounds like far too many chargers to go through!

one of them is OEM and it lasted for few months. the one that gets faulty a lot is the micro USB connector ( the one that we connect to the phones charger socket ). that part somehow goes bent on its own gradually. im still using the original Power Adapter though.

Do you have apple? The original Apple chargers don't last me long either but luckily they have a bar genius at apple and you make an appointment and can get a new one if you're item is still under warranty.

@MGjhaud do you charge when you're in bed causing the wire to bend when you look at your phone in bed? That's what happens to me. Now I just leave my phone on the floor when it charges and I don't use it as my phone is charging

I do find that some are much more durable than others that's for sure.

I didn't realize the Ipad can have faulty chargers, this is why Im using a regular mobile phone instead. have you ever reported some of them?

My iphone 6s charger works fine, it's been over a year. Oh dear, that's way too many defective chargers! Do they stop working after awhile?

I avoid buying cheap chargers because they don't last longer and I avoid using 3rd party chargers for my mobile devices. Not using brand specific charger may harm your device.
