I use a qi charger for my iPhone 11 and so far so good, usually. Yesterday my battery was down to 22% when I started charging and it took about one hour to charge 10%. My phone usually takes about 2,5- 3 hours to charge to 100% but yesterday it took over 5 hours to charge from 22% to 96%.
I really don't understand why it took so long, what could cause this? It's the same charger as always, the same phone, nothing is different.
I have an 10w charger, iOS 14.4.2 and my battery health is 98%.
Is there any wireless charger that can fast charge my phone? I'm beginning to get tired of how slow its charging!

so your battery was at 22%,you place your iPhone on the wireless charging pad and after an hour its 10% instead?
what wireless charging pad are you using? what cable? what charging brick? i usually use the Magsafe with Apple 20W Charging Brick OR the Xiaomi 20W Fast Wireless Charger Stand with a Samsung 25W Fast Charging Brick. With Magsafe and Apple's 20W Brick it takes 1-2 hours to get to 100% and with the Xiaomi and Samsung Brick it takes 2-3 hours.But if you really want FAST charging id say skip wireless charging and use wired charging instead.

No, it started on 22% when I started charging and it took one hour to 33%. I tried many different cables and charging brick, and I couldn't see much difference. At the moment I use iZound Fast Wireless Qi Charger 10 W.
its not that important to get very fast wireless charging, but over 5 hours is seriously slow.

Since you have tried many cables and charging bricks i doubt you didnt put the phone properly. Im guessing your charging pad is faulty. Even at 10W it shouldnt be that slow.
