What is a third party cell phone charger?
Most affiliate cell phone stores carry third party chargers where most branded stores, like a Verizon Wireless location or AT&T location would not. The cell phone companies want you to spend the most they can get out of you by forcing you into buying an approved cell phone charger. They will steer you away from third party chargers, because they are cheaper and they do not make as much money from them. However, finding a third party cell phone charger on your own is rather easy. You want to know the make and model of your phone, then check the packaging of a set of chargers. Most stores that carry third party chargers have them grouped by cell phone maker which makes it easier for you to narrow down which one will work. The package will list which phone the charger is compatible with so you can find yours and you are good to go. Third party cell phone chargers come in car and home chargers, so you will be able to find one that works with your phone.
