        When I plug my 6T into charge from a low state (same USB-A port on the computer, same cable each time), there seem to be two different rates of charging:

        • Sometimes the indication is that it will take about 1.5 - 2 hours.
        • Other times about 4-5 hours.

        I've not been able to spot any obvious factor controlling this.
        While it's not a problem, I'm just curious whether anyone has any idea what drives this. (Or indeed whether anyone else has seen it).

          A power-hungry application that runs while charging? (Waydroid, application using GPS, bluetooth or wifi)

            @Vlad-Nirky I don't think so.
            I have WiFi enabled/connected and Bluetooth off whenever I'm at home.
            There's not normally any apps running (at least not visible ones).
            I've not installed waydroid on this phone (I know it can get into odd states where the waydroid window isn't visible but it's not in the start menu either).

              If you can connect with ssh to your phone, you can run a top.

                I wonder if could be related to a faulty charging port or cable? I was having connectivity issues with my OP5t, and it seemed like sometimes it was sometimes charging at a lower rate, despite using the Dash charger adapter or whatever. But then it became hard to charge at all, and eventually I had to replace the port (which thankfully wasn't too hard).
                Anyway, just a thought. Maybe try another cable for starters?
