Will this charge a Galaxy S5 or an LG G3? I'm worried that 1 amp is not enough!

If you use a USB charger, then this will probably work for you. It has worked for my iPhone 4, and my friend used it for her phone (not sure what she has) without any problem. It just provides a jack in the front of the unit so that you don't need more than one cigarette lighter to provide a charger. (I'm lucky and have 3 cigarette lighter ports in my truck.)

Even if it is slow, it should charge slow then. Can't guarantee anything, or the health of the phone, but slower is less harmful than faster.

Yes, I have LG G3 too. Charges normal for me and it will charge a St as well.

Chris I really don't know I never hooked up my phone to it I also have a galaxy 5 sorry I can answer your question

Yes it will. Even if playing music through you smartphone at the same time but, it will take longer to get a full charge than with a more powerful charger.

Yes, it should be more than enough. This charger isn't going to pull much more than a amp or two. You could use a light weight cord of 16 gage if you wanted. Hope the infoe helps..

I can not answer that because my original charger that came with my GLx S5 quit working the 3rd day I had it. I have been trying to replace it since.

I do not know how many amps as it doesn't say in it anywhere. This is my second one purchased through amazon. My first one, I broke, had nothing to do with the charger itself. My second one I've had about 3 weeks and happy so far. Charges my phone, Galaxy III, very quickly.

Yes, definitely! I have an LG G2 which will instantly recognize and reject any Micro USB cable that is not a high-speed charger. This Mediabridge cable, however, fully charges my phone battery in approximately half an hour when it is connected to a compatible USB car charger (I use TopG brand). If my LG G2 is at 50% battery, full battery charge is accomplished in around 10 minutes. (I have not used this cable in a wall adapter, so I have no experience with that.)

I'm currently using it to charge my LG G3 with no issues. I would assume that since the Nexus 5 is made by LG as well that it shouldn't be an issue either.

There are several different cords for different devices. I think the S5 has a microUSB which is what my phone (galaxy note 3) has and it works. I will say that the MicroUSB cord that is attached to the charger never worked for me so I have to use one of the extra cords. It charges my gigantic phone pretty quickly and I can get a few charges out of it so it does what it's supposed to do. Anyway, yes, it should work.

The 2.0 amp will charge faster than the 1.0 amp. Both will charge s3 and s5. it is a wonderful little unit and it has quality looks and feel. I bought 4 of them for my cars. good luck.

I can't say for sure, I use the Galaxy phone - S3 and it has been fine. I have also used it with multiple devices and it has delivered power with out an issue, it may get a bit warm, but not "hot". I would assume from a power delivery standpoint it should be fine and while I assume the voltage would be the same as a Galaxy phone, I would double check that.

I can say it works well on my HTC one which requires 5 volts at 1 amp. not sure what the Samsung takes.

It will fast charge my galaxy s3 phone. However it mounts as a USB 1.1 device.

SCOSCHE indicates this charger will work for the Galaxy S3 and S4 but will NOT work for the S5. I'm guessing the power requirements for the S5 are higher than this charger was designed for. I would give the highly rated Anker® 24W Dual-Port Rapid USB Car Charger a try. It's rated to work for the Galaxy S5 and is on sale right now for $9.99 at 50% off. That's a great deal! SCOSCHE I hear has a good return policy, I'd give that a try as well.

I think is normal I use it to charge my wife's GS3 and my LG G2, both get hot, mine a lot hotter, but still change without problems.

This unit can charge many different units. You will just need to plug your Galaxy 3 cable into one of the USB ports.

I use it to charge a samsung galaxy 2 skyrocket and it works just fine. I think the best way to be sure us to check the phone manual to find out the required amperage. This charger is 1 Amp. Hope this helps!

There are many USB chargers, max 2 amps. The 1 amps give a better charge, the 2amps give a faster charge. I used the one that came with my cell phone. All USB ports are supposed to put out the same voltage which is around 5 volts. So anything that will charge through a USB port will work.

I have not been able to use this to charge my Nook or my outdated cell phone. It might be the amp output doesn't match my devices but I would not recommend.
