Is adapters are same that we bought from amazon and apple store?

I like to buy a adapter. But apple store seems more expensive and amazon seems to be cheaper. Amazon is a trustable seller of apple store. Even though they sell renewal also. So it may be renewal or new one. But they also provide 1 year of warranty and 7 days return policy

Apple does sell their products and accessories to Authorized Apple Distributors for discounted, including Amazon. As long as you Shop from the Apple Brand on Amazon, your purchases should be genuine. All Apple Brand purchases can be returned within 15 days of delivery from Amazon.

This is not quite true. Amazon is a storefront for literally millions of resellers, and Amazon does a poor job of vetting their resellers. So there are many resellers who sell inferior products or who are outright scammers. As long as they give Amazon their cut of the selling price Amazon looks the other way. There are several investigations in progress into Amazon’s practices. When dealing with Amazon stick to name brand products.

You can also buy adapters from reputable third-party sellers. As long as the adapter is "Made for iPhone" certified, there's no reason not to buy it if it better meets your needs. I really like Belkin and Anker products. Anker also appears to fall under Amazon's 30-day return policy (U.S.).

Note, however, that if the seller is someone other than Amazon themselves, the product may be counterfeit. Counterfeit products are far too common when sold by an Amazon "affiliate".


The main lesson here is "If it seems to good to be true, it probably is". That is, if the price you're seeing is a lot lower than what Apple charges, you should be very suspicious of the seller.
