Hello everyone!
If this is an inane question, I apologise, but having noticed warnings about the possible dangers of USB-C cables, I decided to ask before trying anything. (Also apologies if my terminology is off, English isn't my native language, nor is this my area of expertise.)
I bought a Lumia 950 a few days ago, as my Lumia 1020 is dying a slow death, and the 950 is my first device that uses USB-C, so I only have one charger and one USB-C-to-A data cable for it - the ones that came with the phone. Now, I'm used to the convenience having more than one charger for my phone so I checked out the prices for USB-C chargers and it turns out they are insanely expensive, as all accessories are here in Finland (one salesperson very nicely told me that the prices are likely to come down as USB-C becomes more common, which is no doubt true but not guaranteed to happen soon).
So my question is: I have the USB-C-to-A data cable for my shiny new Lumia 950, and I have a wall charger for my old Lumia 1020 - is it safe to use them together?
