I own two Google Pixel 6 Pro phones that were purchased at the same time new in Oct. of 2021. We have been charging our phones with the Google 30W USB-C charger for over 2 years and have never had any issues; however, its a single port charger, and last year for Black Friday I purchased the UGreen 4 port 100W charger thinking I could improve performance by having the multiple ports.
Unfortunately, sometimes when I connect either phone to the charger, it will register as rapidly charging and then immediately stop, forever repeating this behavior and the battery actually drains.
I have tried two different Google Pixel 6 Pros and 2 different USB-C cables, but the only thing to seemingly make a difference is to stop using the UGreen charger.
Does anyone else have this same charger or issue?
I noticed the issue the same day after I received the charger in Dec. but I didn’t pay it much attention because it only happens some of the time, but at this point it is annoying and I feel like the charger is either defective or not really able to support the Pixel 6 Pro as advertised.

You need to clean the USB port on your phone thoroughly with a toothpick
I really don’t think this will help. As I said, it happens on two different phones (same models) using two different USB-C cables; however, I will give it a try and report back
Ah this is interesting, I have a ugreen 65w charger that seems to do sometimes this with my pixel 7 pro. It didn’t always happen, but I couldn’t figure out what would trigger it and how to resolve it again once it started.
I ended up using that charger for other uses in the end and got an Anker one for my phone charging.
I debated buying an Anker charger, but it seems to have similar power profiles…
Maybe this is just an expensive lesson learned: Ugreen bad, Anker good?
It sounds like the Ugreen charger is unable to properly negotiate a USB PD profile for whatever reason, so it just endlessly restarts.
Could be a faulty unit, or just a faulty design overall.
