Own a Nokia 2520? ** DO NOT CHARGE IT! **

[Deleted member 585609]

Due to risk of electrocution, Nokia are recalling all European model Nokia 2520 chargers, and suspending sale of the device.

Not being able to charge the device using the proprietary charger will render the device useless.


Please don't think "I'll be fine", because you may not be. Safety first!

Major oops!
Bet they were made somewhere cheap.

It defies belief when a company with a history of producing mobile devices for as long as Nokia can't make something as simple as a safe charger.

They don't make chargers, the pay someone else to do it because of cost.
