One customer review said that the charger that came with the tablet does not work in America. Is that accurate?

Mine came with a european adapter. The supplier listed was Kailone Tech. Apparently some are US others are European models.

First Clarification: America is all the continent United States included.Second for America you mean which countries? South America? or Central America? in Mexico that is North America we use the same type of chargers also for most of the countries in South America Like Chile, Colombia, Argentina.Problem is if you received a charger for Europe, as they mention in some of the answer, this will be a problem but you can buy the adapter for less than 20 bucks.Hope my answer works for you.

There are certainly versions that are being sold that are international units. Unfortunately the reviews follow the product and not specific to any particular reseller. I've ordered a number of these in the last couple of months and so far I received 3 that appeared to be German that came with a European plug adapter. The device appears to work fine and I got a plug that worked but Its certainly something I'll inquire about in the future when ordering.

Please be aware that if you get an international product you will not be able to claim warranty in the USA and Samsung will not repair it for you! This happened to me. My Google Nexus 10 broke after 10 months and now Samsung would not repair it. I bought mine from BLUTEKUSA. Do not buy from this seller!!! Samsung claims that it is an international product from Latin America and would not repair it in the USA.

The charger has two parts. If you don't know you need to put the two parts together you might think the part with the USB cable is for a foreign country. That part is actually universal. It's the other part (wall plug/charger) that is country specific. Mine came with the correct wall plug part/charger.

We ordered 25 Tablets in early May 2014, and they came with US chargers. We subsequently ordered 50 more in early June 2014, and they all came with European chargers (note, the product description and specifications did NOT state the tablet came with a European charger), and we never thought to ask considering we'd purchased before without any issue. The company we purchased them from is in the process of shipping us 50 US chargers.

Greetings from Russia! We're also on 220V here and the dock works flawlessly. In fact, it is powered through micro-USB jack, so you can use almost any charger that fits the tablet itself.

I don't understand the question. I also live in the USA and my adapter works. I purchased it almost as soon as it came out.

I really don't know the answer to that Cory. All I will tell you is do NOT buy this particular charger period! The portion that plugs into the wall does not work even here in the U.S. They are defective. As far as what to use with your Kindle when you travel abroad I would try to contact customer service here at Amazon, or maybe a travel agent.

Same as any low end product. I got my charger in November, and my TABLET in July 2013. Its on overbite..slow "cold" mess.I sure hope no one else falls for this same false advertising..like I did.Just now seeing your question. No one has successfully used this, far as I see here..right now, July 26, 2014..

Yes. I have used the charger in both the UK and USA. It will work if you have the plug adapter.

Hi Daedrich. As I understand, you live in Hungary. I do not know the voltage you use over there, but I don't think that will be a problem because the Edge comes with its own brick. I would say you just have to buy the plug converter, but you should chek if the voltage, in case it is not the same, won't damage your tablet. Greetings!

Hi Anais, The plug on the charger is good for the US and Japan. The charger will work in every country with the proper adapter. So if you are in Europe, UK other countries you do not need anything else .

Yes I have the Charger, but the phone no longer works!!!! I will never deal with this Company again (Phone sales.com) and be careful with refurbished phones. I didn't have a good experience at All.

You need a sony sgpac 10v charger. You can see it on this link &lt;http://www.amazon.com/Sony-SGPAC10V1-Tablet-S-AC-Adapter/dp/B005G2HSTI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1369784199&sr=8-1&keywords=sony+tablet+s+charger&gt;

Yes, with the caveat that if you're in the states, it comes with a EUROPEAN-style charger which does NOT work on american outlets unless you go out and buy a different charger or adapter.

It comes with a charger. It is unlocked for North America, don't know about internationally. It works fine with a T-mobile pay per minute SIM card.

I used this device in New Zealand, Australia and USA. It charged my Droid phone and 8" Galaxy Tab 3 at the same time. The adapters should allow it to function fine in Europe. I brought other adapters on trips just in case it didn't work or I left this device behind or lost it. I never used the other adapters and only used this one.

The charger is a 110-240V and it has a built in 'remove current outlet plugs and insert your own'. Simply buy a travel adapter for Europe (http://amzn.com/B00MNL3LRI). Should work without issues. Brought mine to Sweden and used it in the hotel. Now - note, I bought mine last year, things might have changed ;) oh, and pleeease, while you travel, Push the volume button inside. I broke mine off by not doing this (still works just pain in da buttz).

This must be specified by the seller.It i not the latest model. Be aware,the one that I purchased does not carry an international guarantee in South Africa as was specified.I had to repay Samsung to reprogarmme this tablet so that it can work properly over here.It now works well.

Travis, this charger supplies 5v at up to 2.1 amps. Does your tablet require a 5v power supply? If yes, then does it require more than 2.1 Amps? If no, then this will work. If it requires other than 5 volts, this one won't work. If you wish, please send me the model number of the tablet, then I could check. The power info is on the sticker on the tablet and/or in the specs if you do a search for the model number.

As far as I know, since the charger is a USB plug, if Europe has transformers that would convert to standard (assuming USB power is standardized world wide) it should work from the transformer (like ones used to charge your phone). Alternatively, standardized USB port on the computer should charge it too.
