I can't find it on Amazon. Are there any good knockoffs? Is it worth it compared to the charger that comes with the phone? Same question for a car charger. Thanks!

To get the full 45W, you need that, plus PPS (Programmable Power Supply) compatibility. Most power delivery chargers use 15V 3A to get 45W. PPS uses 10V 4.5A.The Note 10/10+ is USB-C PD compliant, so any charger that is USB-C PD compliant will work.

That said, I don't think it's currently worth it to seek out a compatible charger. The one from Samsung is $50, and I'm not sure if any third party options exist yet. Those with the Samsung charger are reporting 0-100% charge times about the same as the 25W stock charger. I can dig up an article if you want, but long story short, I'm not surprised. It has to do with how fast you try to charge a Li-ion battery in the first charging stage. The faster that stage goes, the longer the second stage takes.
So the increased price, combined with questionable real world benefits, it's just not worth the extra money.
Can the 45w charger be used with note 10 and 10+?
Short answer: Yes
Is it worth it? Depends. It depends on if you are willing to spend extra for a device that shortens the charging time by a few minutes.
I have one but couldn't remember if note 10 was capable of it charging with it. I got it with my promotional $$ in a pkg. I've never use it. Need to try and sell it, I guess. But wanted to be sure it would work with note 10.I know 10+ will.
I don't need it.![]()

ONLY Note 10+ is compatible with 45w charger.
No knockoffs yet. Most chargers that use PPS don't have the 4.5A step. No car charger available yet. I have two of the 45w chargers. It's worth it for me. Makes a difference when you're in the low percentage ranges.I can't find it on Amazon. Are there any good knockoffs? Is it worth it compared to the charger that comes with the phone?

Samsung has said it is USB-C PD compliant:A part of it, but I didn't think it was a requirement because no one was using it until the N10+ and the Samsung 45W charger came around. Look at the actual output ratings of other PD3.0 chargers and the required 10V @ 4.5A wasn't available. That's why it has been so critical to get the Samsung charger if you want the full 45W. There was several members here that tried other 45+W PD 3.0 chargers and found them unable to deliver on the N10+.
