The charger has only 2 terminals/contacts whilst the phone has 4. Does it make difference ?

Good observation. It definitely still works, it just probably won't be as fast as you're used to with a normal phone charger

No they still work great. They just charge slower which is how you want it anyway. Makes the battery life last longer. The battery time while it is in the phone seems to last just as long as the original samsung battery.

I really don't know. They are usually pretty specific. Charger for six and twelve are generally different.

The charger does not come with the receiver (sticker). You have to buy that seperately. You also have to remove the existing sticker on the inside of the back cover, and replace it with the new one. The existing sticker only works for NFC, so it only has two contact points. The one that you'll buy for charging the phone has four contact points, that work for both NFC and charging.

I don't know. For me there is no difference because it's Nokia technology. But, don't buy it; cause I bought two [for me and my girlfriend], the same problem occurred. The USB port to charge the phone is not working well.

If it is a 2AMP charger that means when 4 ports are used .5A per port 2A/4 = .5 so if three ports are used 2A/3, two ports 2A/2 = 1A each port

I didn't try to charge two cellphones at one time. The 2.1A port is usually designed for tablets since most smart phones have charging current of 1A. The 2.1A port could charge a cellphone but it might cause some damage on the charging IC or/and the battery of the phone.

No Chris, if your charger is like mine one of the contacts has to be on the end of the bottom and this one has both at a slight angle.

If you have a European cell phone charger for an HTC Thunderbolt or Samsung Galaxy S3 or S4 phone or any with the same chargers as those then you dont need an additional charger. That's how I charge mine and it works just fine.

Does your phone have a removable battery? If so, you should be fine. You don't actually connect this charger to your phone directly. Instead, you take the battery out of the phone and the battery itself fits into this charger. Once it finishes charging, you put the battery back in your phone. I actually got this charger to help when I had a phone whose charge port was broken. I also got a second battery. That way, I would use one battery and charge the other, then switch.

Hi Devorah. Im not sure, because I am not familar.with Samsung batteries. This charger has two little prongs, that slide closer or further apart depending on the battery. The prongs make contact with the positive and negative tabs on the battery and delivers charge. It should work with most phone batteries. There are four flashing bars that indicate charging. When all four bars are solid and steady, battery is charged. Wish I could be more sure, but I've only had Motorola, LG, and Kyrocera phones. If your phone isn't charging at.its charging port, like mine, it would be worth taking the gamble and getting the charger, so the phone could be saved. Good luck....Kem . Hi Devorah.

It works on the 3, I don't think there's any difference in the case between the 3 and 4.

If you look closely, one of the contacts is probably marked + and another - If not, you'll have to try all the combinations; the charger's green light comes on when you get the connections right, even if it isn't plugged in.

I am not familiar with this phone, but there are six different adapters included with the charger and some of them for older phones.

From the manual: "The charger will only supply the maximum charge current allowed byyour device up to 2.4 amp." The combined total allowed the 2 ports is 4 amps.

I have a DMC-ZS7 which also has 4 contact points and this charger works just fine. It's also got physical space for a larger battery than mine, but you just line everything up and it works fine.

Usually you use the two outside terminals or whichever ones are marked + and -.Polarity does not seem to matter to the charger.

I believe just the 4. It comes with a special phone back for wireless charging and I think the backs on 3 and 4 are different.
