The fake iPhone charging cable warning made a sound in the technology world. Because it is stated that millions of fake iPhone charging cables are sold every year. However, original or Made for iPhone (MFi) certified iPhone chargers are considered safe. The British media, on the other hand, warns millions of iPhone users to check their charging cables if they are not life-threatening. The warning is remarkable…
BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR iPHONE CHARGING CABLE WARNING
The British Daily Star reported that millions of fake iPhone cables are sold every year. Accordingly, fake iPhone cables can pose a serious fire hazard. In fact, it is stated in the news that fake or cloned iPhone equipment has caused numerous fires or electric shocks over the years. However, it is mentioned that Apple-certified third-party charging cables and devices work safely.
According to the news, in a study that tested a series of fake charging equipment, it was found that 98 percent of the equipment puts consumers at risk of electric shock or fire, which can be fatal.
In addition, it was reported that Apple has prepared a guide for identifying dangerous chargers that can damage your iPhone or get too hot.
DON’T GO WITHOUT LOOKING AT THESE DETAILS! MADE FOR iPHONE, “TEARS”…
Accordingly, certified iPhone accessories have a “Made for iPhone” label on their packaging, while original Apple Lightning cables have a “Designed by Apple in California” label on the side.
You can also check the end of your cable’s Lightning port. If the width, length or thickness of the gold metal ‘teeth’ on the cable are inconsistent, you may be using a fake charger.
Authorities are reportedly curbing sales of counterfeit phone accessories more and more. Apple and other manufacturers are also struggling with this.
EVEN IF YOUR CABLE IS ORIGINAL…
But even if your phone’s charger is legal, that doesn’t mean you’re completely out of danger. According to the report, you should still be wary of fire hazards. In particular, charging a device while in bed can be dangerous and pose a risk of both electric shock and fire.
