I am interested in repurchasing a BlackBerry Priv which I somewhat foolishly sold back in January. And one of the issues I had was the fact that although it was fast charge compatible it was not supplied with a fast charger. I managed with other brands first time around but always hankered after the official BlackBerry release. But at the intial asking price of £30+ postage was just too high.
18 months later the Priv is now discontinued and the price has dropped considerably. This has also had an effect on the accessory prices and as a result the price I paid was about 40% less which made it doable altough still more expensive than comparable Anmer chargers. So I went for it.
It arrived poorly packed and the box had a dent in it but the actual product was OK. The actual product comes in two pieces First is the actual charger then the relevant power adapter in tbe case of the UK a 13 amp 3 pin plug adaptor. Fitting is simple like up the relevant parts then twist and the plug locks into place.
As for operation, plug into a 13 amp socket, plug a USB lead into it and you're away. This is Qualcomm 2.0 compatible making it eminently suitable for a BlackBerry Priv.
So it does the job without any problem .A fast charge on a Priv will take about half the time it takes with the supplied charger. It also seems to fast charge my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge without any problem. So as far as that goes it does exactly what it's supposed to do in a slimline quality package.
It's worthwhile buying at the present price but really should have been supplied with a decent quality Micro USB Cable of the type supplied with the Priv. And as an earlier review pointed out maybe this should have been the ORIGINAL charger all along for what is a premium priced handset.
It would have got five stars apart from the fact there was no Micro USB lead supplied so it dropped a star for that.
For BlackBerry Priv owners though it should really be seen as a compulsory purchase.
