iPad Pro Charging Icon Blinks

Starting a couple of weeks ago I noticed that my iPad Pro charged weirdly: the icon would sometimes disappear from the lock screen, and other times the charging icon would simply blink (alternating between the charging sign and normal battery sign).

I have reset the device (soft reset, force restart and hard reset) and the issue persists. I have also tried charging it with a brand new Apple USB C cable and adapter, without result.

The device does charge, if the blinking doesn't start (it's a hit and miss).

Is this a software or hardware issue? A quick search tells me others have experienced the same thing (on an iPhone too).

iPad Pro, iPadOS 15
