Hello,

Hmm, you might check the charging port for lint or other debris:

Sorry,it's been too late to respond! Same charging port of iPhone X responds positive while charging with my newly bought 12w charger (bought on 9th Feb this year) charging 37 to 41 % in 30 mins while in the same phone my newly bought 20w usb c charger with cable ( bought on 5th Feb) charging 24% in 30 mins !!!!!! It proves problem not from charging port,right?

The 20W charger is rated for Power Delivery and will charge faster with devices that support that mode of fast charging (your iPhone X does not). One of the Apple magazines did a test back when the iPhone X was new and found that the 12 watt charger was the sweet spot for the iPhone X for best charging. And this test was not just with Apple chargers. To get a real comparison take the phone down to 20% and then charge it to 80% and see what the time is for both of them.
