My macbook pro from mid-2018 goes from 100% battery to 5% battery in maybe 10 minutes while it's plugged in. When it hits 5%, everything starts moving very slowly. I checked the battery condition and it's normal. Any idea how to fix this?

Be sure to check if your MBP has the T2 security chip. Instructions are in the article.
After that, try using the charger on a right-hand side port.
Battery goes to 5% battery in minutes
