Phone charging goes from fast to normal to slow sometimes

[Elijah Kamski]

Hi there, please help, my phone charging (S10) goes from fast to normal to slow. I thought it was the cable from the power bank to the phone so I replaced it with a very expensive cable from Cygnet, but then the issue still persists. I thought it was because of the wobble of the cable on the power bank, and that does effect it, but just doing nothing will also lead to the same result.

 

Please help, I don't know why this is happening and I need the fast charging. Also there is no debris in any port used.

At what percentage? Charging will slow down with heat and as the battery gets full, with age it'll slow down earlier. Full fast charge is only effective for the first 50% or so usually.

It was near 60-70% at the time that it happened, the battery and charging port were recently fixed and changed so it could handle more intensive use such as the use of multiple apps and services at the same time.

It was probably heating up, but I'm not sure why it went to slow charging because of it.

To stop heating more probably.

Hey, the issue still persists even when its not over heating and in a cool environment.

 

Same with the phone, not overheating or close too

 

The phone was also at 21%, issue does not happen when using power brick.

So it's probably the power bank that can't keep up the load for more than a short time.

Didn't know that was a thing

 

Sad to hear, rip

After further investigation, it seems like it was indeed the expensive cable being faulty.

 

I've since had it replaced with warrenty.
