1.2 amp vs 1.0 amp charger

[dougltc]

I noticed that the travel charger that came with the N4 is 1.2 amps... I have a bunch of 1.0 amp chargers laying around...

Other than it taking longer to charge, is there any downside/problem with using a 1.0 amp charger with the N4?

Thanks...

Nope they should work fine. Just a bit slower but probably not very noticeable difference.

Only time it might be an issue is if you are trying to charge while using a very battery draining app such as streaming video or music. The rate of battery discharge may not be able to keep up with the rate of charging.

If you are going to charge your phone while not using any heavy apps, you should be fine.
