I have just purchased a samsung galaxy type c fast charging plug and cable but the samsung logo is upside down compared to all my other samsung plugs and leads, i have noticed that when I use the plug and cable the plug gets hot but non of my other plugs het hot, is there anyway of knowing if i have a fake or genuine samsung plug and cable?
I have an update on the samsung galaxy plug and cable that i bought and my money is being refunded.
Thank you everyone for all your help 🙂

Hi @Bev54 👋
First question is where did you putchase this from ?
If not from Samsung then yes you could have a clone / fake.
Sadly as the counterfeit charging bricks and cables are so well made now it's difficult to say whether they are or not fakes.
So if you haven't purchased from Samsung or a reputable Highstreet reseller then I'd go with your gut defending, and return them and buy again from Samsung.com / Samsung Experience Store or a known reputable Highstreet Store.
If i can be of any further help please don't hesitate to ask 😎

Samsung genuine power adapters are cheap from Samsung store
This the USB C to USB C, I am sure you can get different cables for older models too

Mostly If it wasn't bought in the samsung store it's more likely to be a fake clone, make sure you check anything on the samsumg including your code to check if its real or fake on a website! (YOU don't need to now.]
No worries, feel free to ask us
