- BlackBerry® Premium Charger
The charger that ships with the BlackBerry® PlayBook™ tablet is the BlackBerry Premium Charger and is fully compatible with a number of current BlackBerry® smartphones. Unlike the traditional BlackBerry smartphone wall charger which converts AC to 700-800 mA. The PlayBook charger will charge the smartphone faster than a AC charger. Even though the Premium charger is rated at 1800 mA, the BlackBerry limits the charge rate for safety reasons. The actual rate will depend on the battery model being used.
The battery does heat up slightly but is within acceptable levels.
