Dream - Smartphone manufacturers always remind their users to use original products. It's not just about making sales, but security is also a reason why these reminders are often made by companies. This advice is reflected in the experience of the owner of the iPhone 15 Pro Max when charging the battery using a fake charger. Instead of the battery being fully charged, the charger cable from the counterfeit product actually appeared to be melting.

"I don't have AppleCare, will Apple fix this?" he asked. This Reddit post went viral and many people replied and speculated that the charging cable was the cause.

In the comment that received 317 downvotes, many people reminded to use the official charger from Apple or reputable third-party companies. Some people criticized NoisilyMarvellous for using cheap generic USB-C cables to charge.

In a separate post, NoisilyMarvellous said that he could unplug the melted plug from the USB-C port. However, the inside of the port is already burnt. "The entire inside is blackened, and most importantly, it can no longer charge with a charging cable," he wrote.
