Yeah but how can you tell that you’re getting the right charger for your phone? No two chargers are the same; they have different wattage ratings and use different charging standards.
If you grab any old charger without knowing the model number, it’ll charge your phone, sure, but not necessarily at its maximum possible charging speed unless you get lucky or take extra time to examine and research each charger until you find the right one. And I don’t know about you, but I’d feel awkward about pulling out my phone to Google random chargers while digging through a lost and found box with the employee just standing there. I rather just spend the money on a compatible charger designed for my phone’s charging standard.
Chargers have the wattage ratings printed directly on them. And the rating will simply be the maximum that the charger can provide. Wattage is pulled, not pushed. So if you plug your phone into an oversized charger, the phone will only draw what it needs.
Just grab the highest wattage you see, and the phone will pull what it needs.
