I own an iPhone 14 Pro Max that's only a few months old, and the battery health is still at 100%. Lately, though, I've noticed that it always shows 'slow charging' every time I try to charge it. I've already tried several things like using different chargers (including a brand new one), different charging blocks, various outlets, a wireless charger, cleaning the charging port, and even restarting the phone, but nothing seems to work. I'm really at a loss here since the battery health is perfect—what could be going wrong?

I had a similar issue! Turns out, my phone was getting too hot while charging. Check if your device is getting warm—if it is, that might slow down the charging speed. It's also worth running any software updates that might be pending.
It sounds frustrating! Slow charging could be due to a couple of reasons. First, check if your charging bricks are delivering enough power—5W isn’t much for fast charging. Typically, you'll want at least 20W for quicker results with your iPhone. Also, if you're using a high-quality cable, it can make a difference too. If all else fails, it might be worth contacting Apple support, as there could be a deeper issue with the charging port or the battery.
Good point! Also, try resetting your settings in case it’s a software glitch. Sometimes a simple reset can really help out.
Interesting! I definitely need to check for updates. Thanks for the tip!
