Wall chargers

Do they not make them like they used to, or is it just me? I have gone through six in the last year alone. Some of them at $40 a pop. I bought the expensive ones hoping they would last longer, too. Anyone else finding their chargers aren't holding up to the low batteries of our modern technology? My phone drains so quick, too.

I use my computer to charge my phone. Just need a cord with a usb end on it. Cheap and this one has lasted for years. Might want to try that.

I just plugged it in with your suggestion. I hope that works and keeps the charger safer. Thank you.

@EmrysCat You are very welcome, I think that will work just fine for you and you don't need another charger.

Have the brightness to your phone on the lowest it can go with you being able to see, itll help with your battery. But yes ive noticed chargers not lasting long

What phone do you have? I just got a LG Optimus Zone 3, and the battery seems to hold pretty well most of the time. Unless i am using it as a hotspot. Which is primarily what I use it for.

That is what I have as well. It is my internet connection currently. I can't get true internet out where I live.
