Please do not plug your $600~ smartphone into a $1~ charger. That's just asking for trouble.
- Dylan16807 10y agoA 3 to 5 volt booster is not easily going to damage a phone. But fine, get a $5 model from a reputable brand. You can also get an entire phone for $10. It will even have a screen! Don't spend $50 on a piece of garbage.
