iPhone charging issues (iPhone 6s)

I just bought a used iPhone 6s, I turned it on and it has the red battery icon on it. I thought to charge it so I got my official iPhone lighting cable and official charger brick.

So I plugged it in and I got the red icon with the white cable with a charge symbol next to it, after about 15 min I checked it and its still in that same thing, red icon.

Does anyone know what I should do? I cleaned the charging port out, with a wooden toothpick it was dirty, same issue. I thought the lighting port is fine because the phone displayed it charging when I looked at it again so I don't think that needs to be replaced is it the battery or the charging port or maybe something else.

Does anyone know the iPhones issues?

It sounds like the battery needs to be replaced, but we can't diagnose your issue remotely.

If the issue still persists, have you iphone checked at your most convenient Apple Store or Authorized Service Provider:
