Would using a Samsung 50w charger damage my Galaxy S25 Ultra? I understand the device only supports up to 45w charging.

The phone or any device only uses maximum wattage rating it can only accept. No worries as higher wattage adapter won't damage your phone at all.

no, samsung phone support PPS or Programmable Power Supply which mean the charger will contact phone to ask how much electricity can be delivered, so that duo 50W adapter will only deliver max of 45W charging speed

 

also when you charge two device then both plug only deliver 25W simultaneously, so if you wanna reach 45W for your S25U only charge it alone, don't forget to use 5A black USB-c cable provided in the box to reach 45W charging speed

No, using a Samsung 50W charger will not damage your Galaxy S25 Ultra, even though the device only supports up to 45W charging.

Modern smartphones, including Samsung devices, have built-in charging regulators that control the power input. If you use a higher-wattage charger, the phone will only draw the maximum power it supports (in this case, 45W), and the extra 5W from the charger will not be used.

To ensure optimal and safe charging, it's best to use an official Samsung charger or a certified third-party charger that supports PPS (Programmable Power Supply) and USB Power Delivery (USB PD 3.0).

You should concern more on output Voltage which will really damaging your device. Always check the spec of charger.
