This is GOOD to hear. Now maybe we can get rid of one of the "gates"
Yes I hate the use of gate as soon it is about some error with Apple devices
After more than 15 years covering everything Apple, it’s with a heavy heart we announce that we will no longer be publishing new content on iMore and the iMore forums will be closing as of November 1st, 2024.

Interestingly it may explain why there have been more returns this cycle. After some reading on Reddit I noticed there are a number of people having the issue. One fix seems to be going into Settings -> Face ID and Passcode -> turn on USB accessories. Not sure if this actually works since mine doesn’t seem to be affected. USB goes to sleep after an hour of the phone being idle so I may have to put it down and switch to the iPad for a while tonight to test this theory and see if I can replicate it. If it happens then it’s because of the accessory toggle.
I wonder if I should exchange my Max or is this a software issue?
As mine started charging again after installing beta 12.1 I am pretty sure it is a software problem
Whew!!!.... Just picked up a Max earlier today. Does not have this charging issue!
Omg you really can't make up your mind huh?! Thought you decided on keeping the note 9!

Haha nope! Lol
Gonna sell the Note. XS Max in da house!!![]()
I just returned from my Genius Bar appointment and the Apple Store employee told me it's not a hardware issue but a software issue that is known and will be patched "in a week or two". He said just keep turning on your display when you need to charge the phone up.
"In a week or two", Apple needs to patch that immediately. NOT in a week or two.
I have no issues with this. I use a wireless charger and cord while at work or In the car and it charges fine.
