Product Description

When you're on the road, a fully charged BlackBerry smartphone is more than a convenience - it's a necessity. And now it's easier than ever to keep your smartphone fully charged, virtually wherever you go.. Just plug the BlackBerry Micro-USB Vehicle Power Adapter into your car's power adaptor ("cigarette lighter") and, like other BlackBerry smartphone chargers, it charges your smartphone rapidly, and helps preserve the life of your battery. Then tuck it away in your glove compartment or door pocket until next time. It comes with a coiled 30-centimetre cord that stretches up to two meters for your convenience in any production vehicle. It's even Micro-USB compatible.

Not too long ago the global consortium that makes standards for cell phones decided that all cell phones would have micro usb connectors as a standard. Simply put, whether its a blackberry, a smartphone, or any other cell phone (iPhones excluded) will require this type of cable to connect to your pc/mac for charging and or synchronizing.

These particular car chargers are not cheap knock offs but original equipment from the manufacturer. In other words they are genuine blackberry parts and work perfectly fine for Blackberry 8900's and Storms - both of which now sport the new micro usb connector.

5/5

This is original blackberry equipment and quite a bit cheaper than the $30 price tag charged by Verizon wireless, which is a total rip-off. This has the blackberry name on it and works like a charm. I highly recommend this item.

I recently bought a BlackBerry Tour at the Verizon store, and because I was taking a trip in a few days, I bought the car charger even though I knew it was overpriced at thirty dollars.

However, after I returned, I bought this product for another car at a fraction of the cost for what I paid for the first charger. It works just as well.

Bottom line: Unless you need a car charger immediately, buy this product rather than the car charger sold at the phone store. For much less money you get the exact same performance.

Update September 28, 2010: Just bought this elsewhere on Amazon for $7.00 with no shipping charge for Prime members.
