Does anyone know if I can use the fast charger I have for my s7 with the new S8 I'll be upgrading to next month?

Many thanks Bades1978. I am part of the upgrade programme but have found at it is cheaper buying direct from the High Street, so pulling out this year.
Thanks for the speedy info.

Hello,
Does using a power adapter affect the fast charging. I bought an s8 plus in Heathrow and when trying to charge in Spain via a power adaptor it's not functioning as a fast charger?
Reading the comments above I presume I would be fine to buy the old white fast charger from the spanish samsung store and this would work? From what I can see Samsung haven't released the new version to buy as a replacement.
Many thanks

Hi yes you can use the older white one, have you checked the power settings to make sure fast charging is turned on? Also check the adapter with another incase of a fault.

No. It's a different port. Very annoying!

Ok thanks alot, so we don't think that a power adaptor would stop fast charge? I haven't been able to compare with another as of yet to check if it's faulty. I'll buy the white one and see how it goes!

Just remember to change the cable over the brick is the same 🙂
