Is the built in cord a USB 2.0 or 3.0? Picture looks like the micro USB 2.0. I have the Galaxy S5 which is the micro USB 3.0.

It does look like the USB 2.0, I too have the USB 3.0 and this cord works great! I love it. It provides a quick charge.

Just got this and it is a micro-USB 2.0 cable, not a 3.0. The micro 2.0 will plug into the micro USB 3.0 on the Galaxy S5.

it is 3.0 but it comes with a separate USB cable to provide power if your using USB 2.0, so in that case you will need 2 USB ports. BTW USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 are the exact same connector, USB 3.0 just provides more power.

When I ordered mine it had the photo with the Mini USB and that's what I received. Think there's something wrong with the photo currently posted???

Yes, the wall charger will be faster. If you have USB 3 ports (Blue plastic vs Black) on your computer, it should be about the same. USB 2 will be slower than USB 3. I find the difference between USB 2 and 3, on my Galaxy S5, to be exponential (Like a dripping faucet vs a firehose).

It is the same micro USB that other androids use. When I use the Samsung charger it comes with, and can get a full charge really fast. Other chargers take more time.

I'm not sure. I have the Galaxy S 3. It's a micro USB, i think that's what Samsung uses.

It is 3.0. I suspect the box image is from a previous model. Interesting note, the USB connection is split; 1 for USB 3 and 1 for power. If you plug into the USB 3.0 port you do not need to plug in the other connection for power. The USB 3.0 powers it just fine. The extra power connection is for 2.0 connections I believe.

It will work for any micro usb. Worked for my S4 and i know it works for an S3 as well. Not sure of a S2.

It's a USB cable. Should be fast on any phone. The S3 is USB 2.0, BB10's are 3.0 compliant.

It's the USB 3.0 plug. It should be an inch long black chord with 2 wires connecting straight to those USB ports.

Seems there are two versions of this, the old version with a short coiled cord permanently attached, and a newer? version that a new description and picture says it comes with a separate 3ft long cable. I just ordered one on Lightning deals, I guess I'll find out in a couple of days which version I get.

From CNet review"What is a little different is the USB housing on the bottom of the phone. Like the Galaxy Note 3, the S5 now features the elongated USB 3.0 port, which is backward-compatible with standard micro-USB cables. In other words, you can still charge the phone with legacy USB cables, but it'll really juice up quickly with the compound USB 3.0 cable Samsung supplies."

This was a gift that I gave to someone... however I seem to remember that it was a standard phone micro usb. compatable with android phones etc.

It comes with both the cord, and the wall plug in. The wall plug in however is the 5.0, NOT the 5.3. That's important to know! Especially if you have the Galaxy S5.

It says Samsung on it. The cord is a little stiff but works fine. I use it to charge my tablet, my phone, my Kindles. It is a nice, long charger cord with a regular plug and a usb plug. Works well no matter where it's plugged in.

it is the charger cord. I can use the charger that I use on my phone. The one that you can take off the plug. USB

I know what you mean. This does come with usb cord. It uses the same cord for recharging as Samsung Galaxy phone. I carry a 2 outlet wallplug that accepts usb for recharging this battery and my phone. I also carry a 2 outlet usb car charger. These are very small and easy to carry. Usually place all together in a zip-lock baggy.
