There are two interoperable standards for USB mobile phone chargers:
* The Chinese standard requires a USB Type A socket (the big USB plug)
on the charger.
* The European standard requires a micro-USB socket on the phone.
Compatibility with both can be achieved by having a charger with a USB
Type A socket, a phone with a micro-USB socket and a cable to connect them.
