Umidigi ZPro - grounding leakage?

chooks06

Hi, have been charging my 2 week old Z Pro using supplied charger and cable.
When my fingers touches any part of the aluminum chassis, during charging, I can feel "vibes", the feeling you get sometimes when devices are not provided with an earth/grinding pole.

This is the first time I'm using an aluminum unibody phone and I'm wondering if anything is terribly wrong with any of the hardware - phone, charger or cable.

Anyone having the same experience?

Despite this, the phone is working well, less some niggles which are not major enough to constitute a reject. At least for now.

Seller has offered to repair if I send back. I find the lead time and additional costs prohibitive and don't want to risk a replacement since this piece is relatively good to start with.


Cheers!

Yeah even i felt the same while using the charger supplied by umidigi, then used another charger from Sammy and also tried with the dash charger of oneplus..with these i don't get the earthing electro-vibes..
Try using a diff charger with the same cable given by umidigi..

Thanks for your input mate.
I did try with the Asus fast charger and a normal 10W normal charger from Sammy. The vibes were noticeably lesser and almost none when using a regular charger.

Not really that big an issue to spend extra $40 back shipping and some 3 weeks overall downtime.

Cheers!
