The iPhone 15 Pro Max is Apple’s most powerful smartphone to date—but even with its advanced features, users have reported issues with something as basic as charging. If your iPhone 15 Pro Max is refusing to charge, heating up during charging, or connecting and disconnecting repeatedly, this guide is for you.
Let’s explore the likely causes behind these charging problems—and how to get your device back to 100% power.
Symptoms of Charging Issues on iPhone 15 Pro Max
If you’re facing any of these symptoms, you’re not alone:
- Charging stops and starts repeatedly
- The battery percentage doesn’t go up while plugged in
- The phone only charges with a certain cable or at a specific angle
- Overheating during charge, then stopping completely
- “This Accessory May Not Be Supported” warning
Common Causes of iPhone 15 Pro Max Charging Problems
🔌 1. USB-C Port Blockage or Misalignment
The switch to USB-C on iPhone 15 Pro Max has introduced a new vulnerability—dust, lint, or even slight internal pin misalignment can prevent proper charging.
✅ What You Can Do:
Inspect the port with a flashlight. Use compressed air or a soft anti-static brush to remove any debris. Avoid poking inside with pins or metal tools.
⚠️ 2. Incompatible Cable or Charger
Not all USB-C cables are created equal. Using a low-quality or non-certified cable can result in poor or no charging.
✅ Quick Fix:
Try charging with the original Apple USB-C cable and 20W adapter. Also test with a certified replacement.
🔄 3. Software Issues or iOS Bugs
Sometimes the problem isn’t hardware—it’s iOS itself. A bug in the system may limit charging or trigger thermal protection.
✅ Suggested Steps:
- Restart your iPhone
- Update to the latest version of iOS
- Reset all settings if needed (Settings > General > Transfer or Reset)
🔧 4. Internal Hardware Fault
If your device recently dropped, came into contact with water, or overheated, the charging chip or logic board could be damaged. This needs professional repair.
