iPhone 15 keeps coming on and off charge

I just got my 15 and i’ve been charging it with the cable from the box and an apple usb c plug, every time it goes up by 1-2% it comes off charge then goes back on again. I’ve tried it with another usb c apple cable and has the same issue, charged it with an anker cable in my car with the same issue and I’m at a loss now of what to do!


I’ve always had the old cable issue of wiggling it to the right angle to charge but this isn’t the same thing, it can be laid flat and still go on and off charge like no tomorrow! It’s on IOS 17.0.2.


It still does charge and hold charge it’s just annoying and a bit concerning that it keeps going on and off like it is


EDIT: not sure why it says i posted this on my 12, i have posted it on the 15 🤦🏻‍♀️

Do you have charging optimization on in settings? If it’s set to 80% limit and your phone is close to 80% when you plug it up that may be the issue. Same may be true if you selected the Optimized Battery Charging option. Switch it to None and see if the same thing occurs. If it does then definitely take the phone to your nearest Apple Store to be evaluated (or call Apple for assistance if you don’t have a store in your area). You are still in the exchange period so you could also just opt to exchange it.


And it’s not saying you posted from your 12. That’s just the device you have on your profile.
