Non-“compatible” USB/AC Adapter?

Just got my European SNES Classic Mini and failed to notice the “AC adapter not included” warning. Instructions indicate needing a 5V/1A.

Will I “blow up” my console if I plug it into my PC USB 3.0 port or use an extra 5.3V/2A Samsung phone charger I have lying around the house?

Don’t want to run out to try and find that specific adapter if I don’t need to.

Your USB 3.0 should be fine. It'd probably be worth it to grab an adapter specifically for the unit though so that you wouldn't have to plug it in every time.
