Hi,
Can you use the wall charger from the Galaxy Tab 7" ?
Please if you have both devices to try it.
I would like to import this new 10.1" to Europe, The Netherlands.
And I am wondering the wall charger requirements.
Thanks.
I would also be interested to know if the charging cable is compatible between the original Galaxy Tab and the Galaxy Tab 10.1.

Yes it works. I'm using my cable that came with my 10.1 to keep plugged into my PC and I'm currently charging my 10.1 on the cable that came with my 7. It went from 0 to 50% so far no problems. Not sure if it charges any faster/slower than the one that came with it but I'd assume they are the same.
Thanks, so I can order NL gt 7 charger for my US gt 10.1 for use here in NL.
Sweeettt ...

Thanks for that. Picked up a couple of genuine Samsung chargers from Tesco in the UK for £4.97 each (reduced from something like £40!). Potential UK buyers might want to grab a spare while they can!
i think he was saying that the cable will work. The charger might not. I was trying to use my cable with other USB wall chargers but the device won't charge on them... my guess is because they are less than 2ah. I would make sure the specs on the tab 7 charger match up to the 10.1 charger to be safe
The Galaxy Tab charger I picked up today is rated at 2A so it should be OK, with any luck!
cable and charger both work. both chargers are 5v 2A. one reason why it charges slower than the xoom and tf.
on the upside it does trickle charge via standard usb. my tf won't and of course my ex xoom wouldn't.
Sweet, i'm gonna have to pick one of these up then
Wow, those chargers are expensive on amazon. Does anyone know where to get cheap ones?
Ebay is probably the best place for all things cheap, unless you're wanting a samsung branded charger
Haven't checked for the exact right one but dealextreme.com has been the best in the past for misc electronics cheap.
good to know that. like many android gadgets, once you have it, next natural thing is to put several chargers in several places.

Probably if anyone can post photo / link to the gt tab 7 charger?
So, we all know what to look for specific.
I hate how you can't just plug it into any usb. I have usb adapters everywhere and it would be nice if I could charge it while plugged into my computer
I posted this in another thread, but with these adapters, you can charge off ANY USB port;

I've bought two, leave one at home and the other comes travelling with me.
I also use a few third party cables designed for the original Galaxy Tab and they work fine. So happy to be able to charge my 10.1v anywhere

it does, but it seems like 1% per 3 min. just plug it in and see. it's the only honeycomb tablet that i've had that actually does charge via usb (xoom, tf, and gt101). the tf doesn't, but i'm sure it would if i had usb 3.0.

Thanks for this! I saw your other post and went ebay chasing, but the link made it much easier...
I really want a wall charger I can throw in my flight bag. Anyone have one they've found on eBay that charges the Tab 10.1? I really don't want to drop $40 for the OEM, ouch!

Seriously, why not buy one of the adapters that I posted about and use any charger you want? I think I paid about $7 Australian for two and now I can keep using all of the USB wall and car chargers I have amassed over the years owning Win Mobile and Android phones
If your heart is really set on buying a proper wall charger, if it says it will charge a Galaxy Tab (original) or iPad, it should charge the 10.1
Hey Question:
Does the wall charger support 240v in addition to the 110v US ?
thanks
Yes it does but there's no euro adapter in the box.

We can use power connector plug converter ...
Once the tab is available in Europe, we can just buy the charger.
Although, I am wondering if the charger for Galaxy Tab 7" can be used as well.
Because we can buy it here.
I got mine (10.1, 32GB) pre-ordered from Amazon, waiting on 20th June and ship it to The Netherlands

You can also use cables from other devices. Because of how short the USB is, I am using a cable from an old PS2 that plugs into the same spot as the gender plug. Works out well to get me a few more feet.
You can use the 7in Galaxy Tab plugs.
I just received an S3 ordered via an established eBay seller.
However, the seller neglected to state that the S3 is Polish.
As such, it comes with a European, two-pin charging adapter - and a separate, third-party Uk adapter that does not work at all.
Where can I buy an official Samsung Galaxy S3 UK charger?
Thanks.

The EU two-pin charger is a two-piece - a slim adapter in to which the micro USB is inserted.
Am I looking for a two-piece micro USB charger for my S3, or is there only a UK one-piece, like my S2 had?

You're overthinking it. Just buy something that ends with a microUSB. I have yet to find any cable that doesn't work with all my devices. Vodafone even gave me a nokia charger for my S2

Can any European owner (except UK) of Note 10.1 2014 could tell me what is the model / part number of the wall charger adapter? I bought a tablet from amazon.co.uk, but forgot about the plug differences.

I would like to buy a second power adapter and googling hasn't resulted in anything I'd call exact.
LG's part number is mcs-04wr2. It outputs 5V, 1.8a.
Any ideas?
thanks
Any 5V 2A

Hey guy, you can use any Power Adaptor with 5V and 2A. I'm using the original one at home and the one of my older Galaxy Tab 7.7 at work. You can buy any at eBay, Amazon, Aliexpress... But I prefer the Samsung original one, the Power Adaptor for S4 or Note 3 are little and light and works fine, and isn't over 15€ in Spain.
Agreed I am also using the Samsung S4 power adapter. You can get one here:

My generic cellphone charger works fine
Agreed pretty much any wall to USB adapter should work. It can charge off a PC USB port.
all you really need is a mini USB to USB cord and a generic wall charger.
I think an iPad adapter would work, too, just use a microSD cable with it.
The original charger is 1.8 Ah, so any charger of 1.8 or higher will do.
Chargers lower than 1.8 Ah will also work fine, but will take longer for a full charge.
A light phonecharger of i.e. 0.5 Ah will take quite a bit more time.
I also use my S4 charger to charge the tablet.
