Thanks for sharing this. Mine was stuck at 81%. Did a hard reset, stuck at 83%. Did another hard reset, now stuck at 86%. My iPhone is little warm though, but not in a hot environment. I pulled it off the charger for now.
Got a tip for us?

I have the same problem. I did it several times and now it's 100%. I will see if this problem persists.
I had the same when initially putting my back-up onto the iPhone X, got stuck at 80 or 81%.
When it's downloading all the apps, you'll notice your iPhone is running quite warm on the back.
Once everything is finished and the iPhone calmed down, a bit later it will resume charging and everything will be fine.
What i found last week were some posts mentioning that it's a protection against overheating the phone or something.

I think it's definitely an iOS bug. Surprised there wasn't an intermediary 11.1.1 release yesterday to fix the keyboard bug and these issues too.
Man, this is a bummer to hear. I was hoping that the X battery would be superb and superior to all others.
Same boat here
Especially with the powerbank
Lock screen u might have different fate
Else use the ipad charger, it goes really slow beyond 80% whilst using it
This trickle charge and heat issue is annoying. I didn’t have this problem using a 7 plus and iPhones in the past.
For iPhone X :
After 80%, if the phone is slightly warm, the trickle charging is further capped. Sometimes I am plugged in (while using) and see the battery not charging at all. I have to stop using the phone or use it in a way that does not generate too much heat for the phone to start charging again.

This didnt happen before i updated to 11.1.1. Theres probably a bug with the update.
Yeah this wasn’t happening to me until last night honestly. It’s probably a bug my phone would get warm but still charge however after last night it got warm and had to hard reset and force restart a couple times. After 80% it gets stuck at either 81,83,87,91 or 93 percent and after awhile the phone cools down and starts to charge extremely slow to 100%
I had a chat with an apple support thru the apple website. She said that this a new safety feature and she confirmed that yes it does stop charging when the phone gets warm. She recommended that we send a message to apple thru apple.feedback so that they’ll know about it. She said the more feedback the better.
Thanks for this info bro I thought I had a faulty phone or something. Hopefully it gets fixed soon because it’s kinda scary to just see it stuck there ya know? I’ll send a feedback review now. Hopefully the problem doesn’t persist often as I said before it just started to occur with me last night since I got the phone.

I'll post it again, as it seems people are just simply ignoring Apple's own support page.
Unfortunately it happens to me often. Just a tip, turning to airplane mode until the battery percentage moves works for me. I hope it works for you too. Good luck to us. Yeah hopefully they fix it on the next update.
Yes! This happens to me too! I have this powerbank and charges my iPhone X in my pocket. Later I took the phone out and it only charged until 80% but when I charged my iPhone 7 Plus and SE, they charged beyond 80% so I can safely rule out that the powerbank was faulty.
Did your problem get fixed ??? Any solution ?
[doublepost=1516107740][/doublepost]Has anybody found the solution ??? Please help !
I have been having the same problem. My phone gets warm, I charged it all night and it remained at 83%. I took it back to Apple and they gave me a new one and it did the same thing. I’m going to try to do the hard reset a couple of times to see if it works. Fingers crossed!
