Is this EP-TA800 25W charger fake?

[JChris]

I bought this EP-TA800 25W charger from Amazon and it came without the original package, instead it came with what seems like a OEM package, but the page didn't say a thing it was OEM. I'm a little bit suspicious it's fake, everything seems fine (the phone identify it and fast charge), but the USB-C cable (EP-DA705BBEGWW) that came with it as it says "MA03D CHINA" on one end of the UCB-C metal.

IS IT FAKE?

If you have the same model, please post photos of yours.

Mines slightly different @JChris  because I'm in the UK.

Mine came with my Note 10+ 5G.

I'm always slightly dubious from buying things like this from Amazon or Ebay as there are many fakes around. This is why I only buy from Samsung.

Let the official Team here take a look and or visit a Samsung Experience Store  / Samsung Service Centre or use your countries Samsung Customer Support.

that is an original charger and original cable. u have nothing to worry about.

the country and lot code are etched into all samsung cables, on past models, these were etched into the USB-A end. they make phones in china and vietnam so they make accessories in both these countries too.

Yep, just as a confirmation from someone at Samsung, that does indeed look like a genuine Samsung charger and cable. Nothing to worry about here!

Is there a facility on the Samsung website to verify a product serial number? It would be very useful for checking the authenticity of parts and accessories.

It is a shame that there are so many potentially dangerous fake Samsung products for sale but I suppose that “imitation is the sincerest form of flattery”.

Does something move inside the charger when you shake it?

 Yes it happens to me too

 When you shake the adapter, something inside shakes. The adapter came in a normal box, but the QR code on the adapter cannot be read, the device charges very late when it reaches 40 30 20 10 percent. It is normal with another adapter. It charges quickly with 25 watts over 50 charges without any problems, I believe it is not original.
