Samsung - 25W Super Fast Charging Wall Charger USB-C - Black

Is this proper packaging? Or did Best buy send me a used product? I find it very odd Samsung would have a charger in the box without any padding for it to bounce and shake around. I think someone returned this item a d Best buy reshipped it to me, probably not even an original product?

I think pictures say it all. I am using it and I hope it is not broken...

I always prefer official accessories for any electronic item that I spend more than $400 on. This wall brick isn't the cheapest, but, especially with fast charging, I wouldn't trust my $800 phone with a cheaper off-market brand. It charges fast like it claims, and I like that they chose a matte finish instead of a glossy one like many others. Samsung has cheapened out on packaging though, as it came in a box without any additional packing or wrapping - literally just tossed in by itself, so it can give an impression that it has been used before. But all of the chargers on the hook (in both colors) were the same, so I did not take any off of this review and grading it on performance only.

This really is a much faster charger and I am glad it is authentic Samsung. I am always afraid to buy some off brand in case it does any damage to my phone so decided to spend the extra few bucks and get this one. I have the S21 and was using my old fast charger since they decided to copy apple and not provide a charger. I was happy with previous fast charger because charging from about 25% to 100% took about 1.5hrs. But this one only takes about 1hr to get it to same %. Really helps to get more out of your charge if you don't even have the full hour. So this has worked out great. Been using it for over a month now and it doesn't get all hot and no damage to charging system that I can see.

I love this wall charger! I was so amazed to find out how fast it actually charges my new phone! This is yet the fastest charger I have ever had and used! It charges from 0% to 100% in under one hour of time! It is a must-have for your new devices whether they are Android or Apple. Plus, it is cheaper to buy these in Best Buy than at your Mobile Provider! You will save big since the new phones don't come with one of these as they used to, and now you have to buy it anyway, go to Best Buy because you will get the best buy for sure!

Much to my chagrin, the new Samsung Galaxy S21 telephones ship with a double USB-C cable, but no charging block. Of course, the instructions tell you to fully charge the phone before turning it on for first time set-up AND I did not have such a wall block, already. Fortunately, for my two new phones, I was able to buy two Samsung power blocks via online order, and pick them up the same day from my nearby Best Buy. This charger block, together with the included USB-C cable result in a super fast recharge.

So far it works very well. I have tried others from different stores and have been extremely disappointed. The Best Buy cooperation stands behind it's products and I am depending on this purchase to work well. The attending clerk was knowledgeable and advised me about numerous choices. Hence I was able to make an intelligent decision and choose the product best for my purpose.

This is a very simple product, so there isn't too much to say. It does its job and works well to charge my S21 Ultra. It charges quicker when it is below about 70 or 60% battery charge and when plugged in, the phone always says 'super fast charging.' Note, if you don't see that notification/message on the lock screen, you might have to adjust your advanced battery charging settings. The only reason I didn't give this product 5 stars was the packaging. I understand wanting to reduce packing material, but the box should really be made smaller or include an insert. The charger was just loose inside the box. This comes off as unprofessional and cheap. This product is usually $5 off, so wait to buy this if it's listed at full price.
