Yes, most 'wall wart' chargers with smps are to some extent live. Best to avoid use in kitchen or bathroom where you may inadvertently complete a circuit from charger to earthed metalwork.

When you run a finger along a wart-powered dab radio antenna you can usually feel the tingle of a safe very low current mains shock.
