maybe you got "old" stock? it's not uncommon for products like this to sit in a warehouse for over a year. Anker has been fine in terms of quality in my opinion, never had an issue with any of their products. Although i must

the seperation of whatsapp and facebook has recently been up to debate. Mainly for apperently breaching terms of the acquisition. Whatsapp is so universal it should really be either a federated system or a public utility.
