All of a sudden, my iPhone X will not charge when plugged into a wall outlet. I'm using the charging cord that's included with the phone. I've rebooted the device - no help. The only scenario where it WILL charge, is when I'm plugged into my McBook Pro, and MacBook Pro is plugged into power.

I'm running 12.1.4

Have you tried plugging to a different wall outlet?
 
Have your tried a different charger cube? If the original cable worked with your MacBook then it seems the cube could be the culprit!

Unfortunately, I don't have an extra cube ... now I wish I did
[doublepost=1551117052][/doublepost]Sounds like a trip to the Apple Store ... either for a new charger, or some kind of diagnostic
 
Turns out to be a bad cube/adapter. They replaced it, free of charge (still under Apple Care).

Weird, though - never had a charger issue in all the years of having an iPhone.

Thanks, folks!
