iPhone 12 pro died and Apple asked to replace the phone for some cash. Took it to the local repair shop and he diagnosed the problem to be with charging IC and charged around 10k rupees.

You backtracked when you switched from “only seems to happen with apple” to “not only with apple”. I have no brand loyalty to apple. However, i do have a nintendo switch that i got on launch day. I remember seeing nintendo put out a warning about cheap cables. Source. And I remember seeing some posts on r/Nintendo and r/NintendoSwitch about dead switches. In general, you should know the details about the cables you buy and use.
Why are you so aggressive? Calm down. No one is attacking you.

My last iPhone’s Otterbox lost the rubber flap that covers the charge port, after 3 years of opening and closing. With my new phone, I really didn’t want to have that happen again. I decided to bite the bullet and spend the 35 bucks, since I had to go out and buy a 20w brick anyway.
Honestly, it was a great purchase. It takes about 20% of the time and practically zero effort to connect my phone at night. Don’t get me wrong, it was definitely an insignificant task in the first place, but the amount of time I did spend having to peel open the little flap and stab at the charge port in the dark is not something I miss. The way I see it, I save five seconds per night, I’m being more gentle on the hardware and connecting is as simple as could be. It also works at every angle, rather than having a cord sticking out the bottom into your chest while you’re using it in bed. You can have the cord go in any direction, so you rarely ‘kink’ the cable. It’s just all-around a lot more usable, and I have no concern about damaging the cord/the port through wear and tear.
If I didn’t use a case that covers the port, it probably wouldn’t be as tedious to plug it in in the dark. Still, I’m so used to the puck magnetically snapping onto the back of the phone, I couldn’t ever go back, at this point.

Almost certainly a bad ground.

He said he got it last march, way past the return window. Even if he brings it back, how is he gonna prove to them that he didn’t get the camera fixed/replaced? I would actually suggest taking it to the Apple Store and see what the employee say

Had this happen to me during a snow storm, left it to dry for a few hours and it hasn’t given me problems since.

Found it! It's in Siri's accessibility settings, not the normal one

I got the exact same message a week or so ago on my iPhone SE 2020. It’s not been anywhere near water. Turned it off for an hour or so then it was fine. Or so I thought so. Now it’s very particular about charging now.

You can hook your iPhone up to a 240W USB-C PD charger no problem. I charge my iPhone off my 96W MBP charger all the time.
What happens though is the phone only pulls the current it can use. With the latest iPhones that’s about 20W or about 2.22 amps @ 9 volts. (And it can only pull that much when the battery is low, not when it’s nearly full).
Just looked up the upcoming 240W Realme phone and wow, that’s insane. It does sound like it can only pull and make use of the full 240W when the battery is nearly empty. But it goes from 0% to 20% in 80 seconds which is just insane. I highly suspect they had to sacrifice energy density, and total battery capacity/run time, to get a battery that can do this. Though with charging that fast I’d just hook it up for a couple mins before I leave the bough and I’d be good to go.

I find that spitting on the cables creates this issue.

This happened with one of the certified mophie cables I got directly from Apple… Was so mad

Condensation or humid weather can cause this

Does this possibly happen when you're using a portable battery pack? I have an Anker and this happens at least 50% of the time that I try to use it, but my regular chargers never have an issue. I have no idea why (even tried a different cord, same problem).

90% of the cables in my house are anker. I’ve never had any issues.

As a last ditch effort try doing a hard reboot/reset of the phone. It won’t erase your data and it has saved me a couple times when I thought for sure my phone had died. Black, unresponsive, no reaction to anything.
I’ve pointed a couple of people towards this with symptoms identical to yours and it saved it. You may have to hold the power button down for 10-15 seconds during the last step.
