Excellent value, but be a bit careful,
Many reviews of this product point out that it can be used with devices other than the specified Blackberry models.
This is true, but be careful!
This charger is rated with an output of 5v at 700mA. Many devices ship an OEM AC adapter outputting 5V at 1,000mA.
I’ll be using this with a Sprint HTC Evo 4G which normally uses a 1,000mA adapter. What it means is a slightly longer charging time for the battery. More than likely not important for the vast majority of people, but a few might object for one reason or another.
Build quality on this Blackberry branded adapter is moderate. Mine has a distinct rattle.
Design is okay. Folding prongs, compact wall wart body, long attached cable with a microUSB connector.
Overall a tremendous value, especially if you have Amazon Prime, but double-check the specs on your device to make sure 700mA output will work for you.

|Standard Micro USB – works fine,
I just wanted to clarify for people, these are standard Micro USB wall chargers – no weird brand-specific extensions. I got two of these for my Samsung Moment and they work fine, besides the fact they say BlackBerry. This was the best deal out there for wall chargers I could find.

|Genuine OEM Blackberry Charger – buy from the right seller!!,
This item is available from several different sellers. The highest price (but eligible for free shipping so it makes up for it) is from Amazon — so if you’re looking to receive the exact thing you see pictured here, I’d recommend going for the Amazon one. Other reviewers may be reviewing this item purchased from different sellers.
When sellers set up their item, they can choose among the current listings and just indicate that they are selling that thing. It’s entirely possible that they choose the closest similar thing, and don’t get it exactly right.
I ordered from Amazon (figuring they know what they’re selling and have a vested interest in listing things accurately) and I received a Blackberry branded charger, and the blades were indeed folding.
