What Charger Cable is for Samsung Galaxy Models
Samsung Galaxy uses two different charger cable types based on which model you have. These are USB-C and Micro USB. This is the connection point to your mobile or tablet. The other side can be different depending on what you are plugging the cable in to. The older type plugs will be standard (so USB) where as the newer plugs and newer vehicles are USB C.
USB Type C is the newest type of USB charger. The design helps prevent damage occurring inside the USB port because it doesn’t matter which way you insert it into a phone or tablet.

Micro USB cables have been used for a long time with multiple devices. The cable’s head is not symmetrical. One side has ridges while the other is flat so you have to make sure to insert it into your phone’s USB port the correct way or it could damage the inside of your phone or tablet.
