How to detect fake USB cord

People do complain of having the wrong charger, some complain that it is slow while some do complain that it doesn't work when connected to PC, while some complains that it Charge only on PC, even some will change the Adapter thinking that is the reason behind the Slow charging but Still it is not working as they wish but they won't know they have purchase the fake USB cord, but today am going to share how you can Identify original USB from the Fake one.

There are 2 ways of identifying fake USB

  1. The copper or Aluminium Holes
  2. The five pins


The copper or Aluminium Holes


Critical Examination shows that the USB cable has 2 holes at the big End where it is being connected to the charger, looking in the two holes, there are two tiny iron like rods. With Critical Analysis, you can check if the iron is either Aluminium or copper

The Aluminium is always White while the copper is of Gold color, Images below


After checking the holes, if it has Gold color then you have the original cable but if it is white which is Aluminium then you are carrying the fake cable around.

The 5 pins

The second method is the end which is plugged in the phone, with Critical Examination the pins should be five (5) but if it is four (4) then you are carrying the fake USB cord. Images below

Now with this little tutorial, I know you would have been able to Identify the Fake from the Original. If your charger fall in the fake Category am sorry to tell you that you should change it.
