With millions of products listed on the Amazon platform, there's no doubt that there's a gadget for everyone. However, it's important to think twice before buying tech products on Amazon, especially refurbished items or chargers and power banks with no clear branding. In many cases, it can be difficult to vouch for manufacturer quality as well as accountability in terms of product safety certifications. You should also watch out for items sold under sneaky keyword naming practices, older product models, and tricky sales pricing. And in some instances, you may even find yourself buying from third-party sellers, who sell products that don't qualify for the official brand warranty.

To avoid a lot of problems with buying gadgets, it's always a good idea to opt for more recognizable manufacturers, who work hard to maintain their brand's name. When possible, it's also recommended to only buy from the official company store listed on Amazon.
