Beware of Counterfeit iPhone Chargers—Cheap Is Not Always Better Posted: 29 Oct 2012 12:30 PM PDT When you see that “looks like an Apple charger” somewhere at an unbelievably low price, your wallet might be happy, but your iPhone might not be.

I saw Blux this morning and thought I’d give it a shot—especially since it’s free right now (for a limited time). Continue reading →
