Re: Please help with touch screen accuracy waaaay off! (screen calibration in settings does nothing!)

Re: A novel idea to fix the USB port

That's the only reason I'm guessing it's fake, because of the amount of current compared to the other charger. Otherwise the charger looks as good as the original--very minor cosmetic differences...
