Thanks. It looks okay but still too close to call just from picture. How's it feel in the hand. The thing that's got me concerned is the wording on the box. The grammar is all over the place, like it's been translated from another language. I dunno. Would I risk using it...no, but that's just me.
I'm sorry for the late reply. The charger block feels a bit heavy in my hand, however it's hard to compare since I don't have the original in my hands, nor do I have a way to weigh it to know its exact weight. I decided not to unpack the cable so that there are no problems with the return. I put it to charge with another USB-C cable and it shows two lightning icons with the superfast charging protocol and everything looks blue. I only charged 20% of the device so it's very difficult to say what the average charge is with this charger. The charger in the middle of its two connections has a very strange hole and is very poorly finished, I don't know if the original from the Samsung store has the same. I also see at least on the Amazon page that the block should have written on one side: "Low StandBy" which this one doesn't have. Again I have no information on whether the original model should have this written as well.
Thank you, I have mentioned my concern to Amazon customer service and they have allowed me to proceed with a refund. I should have returned it by the end of the week. I guess the only way to be sure of buying the correct charger is to buy it from Amazon or Samsung directly.
Remember...if buying from Amazon, ensure it's sold by Amazon and not a 3rd party seller in it's marketplace. I guess the only way to know for sure is to buy direct from Samsung.

Can you provide a picture of the charger, too, clearly showing all text please.
Branded goods sold and supplied by Amazon, are usually genuine, but If it's from a 3rd party seller on Amazon, then maybe not.
