I have lost my charger and i want to use temporarily my brother's charger which is a samsung galaxy s6. I also have an older charger of my lenovo tablet. So what is the best charger to charge my phone that won't damage my phone's battery? Photos of the chargers below. Also, samsung galaxy s6 supports fast charging, xiaomi redmi 4 prime supports fast charging

Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime charger:
max 0.35 amper

Thankfully, since USB was universally adopted for new phones and chargers, they (the chargers) are pretty much interchangeable with any phone which has a USB charging port.

Both 1 Amp and 2 Amp chargers can be used, though a 2 Amp one is preferable as it will charge the phone faster.

either one will work, the lenovo charger will take twice as long to charge.
the U in USB stands for universal, if the charger has a USB port it should work. (some manufacturers are jerks and make you buy a name brand replacement)
