I've been having charging issues with my Samsung Fold 7 when using the usb c power port. It seems to not charge and if its low it sort of just holds it there at that level not putting in enough juice to raise the battery level. T he usb a port i think does the same doesn't seem to be enough power. Anyone else experience similar?? Think it's putting out 5 watts the usb c port..If my phone is already full charge it will hold it there if that means anything..Thank you for reading and your time..

I have the same problem, both ports suck! I just use a cigarette lighter fast charger, works 1000% better

Standard usb ports are not up to the charge duties of modern phones... as @Steadyvw said, a cigarette lighter adapter will do much better.

Your problem is most likely due to the cord. Cheap replacement cords don't have the same capacity for data and charging as the factory cords or "fast charge" cords.

I use the Apple USB-C cord to charge my iPhone and it charges fine, Might charge a tad slow, takes it from 15% to 70% in about an hour.
