Hello. I just a slight concern with my charger. So when I plug it in my iPhone it seems to not instantly charge so for instance if I plug it in at 7% it’ll drop to 6% then charge like normal. same happened today it was at 6, charged up to 7 then dropped to 5 then charged like normal. I just wanna make sure it’s not my charging port or if it’s normal basically(The charger is usb-C)
iPhone 13, iOS 17
I wouldn't be too concerned unless your phone does not get fully charged with this power adapter.
Your tagline says you have an iPhone 13. That model, still sports a Lightning port, not USB-C. Are you using a Lightning to USB-C adapter/cable with this USB-C power adapter?

Do you have an iPhone 13, as indicated in the footer?
If you have an iPhone 13, that model has a Lightning connector on the iPhone.
The available Lightning cables can connect to either USB-A (older, bigger, rectangular) or the newer and rounded USB-C. You appear to have a newer USB-C cable and charger here.
USB-C chargers can provide various wattages, and within the charging range supported by and negotiated between the charger and the iPhone, different wattages will charge your iPhone at different rates.
iPhone deliberately does not fully charge until just before your usual wakeup, as keeping the battery fully charged unnecessarily can degrade the battery. This battery preservation usually shows by charging to about 80% and holding until shortly before the usual time the iPhone is disconnected from the charger; before usual wakeup. Shortly before wakeup, the iPhone is then fully charged.
I would recharge your iPhone while you sleep, and preferably charging on a regular schedule. if you find you need an extra recharge during normal daily use, then you’re either using the iPhone a whole lot, or there may be an issue with the charger, with the battery (those inevitably and inexorably wear out and are replaceable), or with the iPhone itself.
The charge percentage shown will vary by current usage (the radios, the display, memory, processor, storage, all draw power), and may go up or down while in use while charging. And as mentioned above, charging your iPhone on a regular schedule is preferred.

Ok thank you I was confused since my other charger didn’t do this and it was the same charger and yes I do have an iPhone 13

Are those two chargers providing different wattages?
possibly since the first one charged my phone normally.
