The original Samsung cable connects like a champ, but does not work as well as the $7 Duracell cable that I bought a couple of weeks back. At least it does not tell me to use my original Samsung cable, right?

"Charging"
"Charging slowly. Please use the original Samsung cable."
"Not charging."

When it starts doing that when I am ten feet away I will give up and use another cable. I had my phone plugged in for the duration of my five-hour drive home, but with the sound off, so I would not hear it chiming repeatedly. Fortunately, I did not hear it vibrating. When I arrived, I saw that it was at 65%. I messaged Mom to let her know I was home safely and went to ask a friend how she was doing, but my phone turned off.

You know, low battery.

I plugged in and was at 61%, but usually when it actually warns me my battery is low, it is magically 15% higher once I plug in.

My phone is as high maintenance as I am!
