iPhone 6 charging from 2 oem cables out of 6 of them

Hello ifixit family! so many apple devices in the house and all of them works with all oem cables except one of the iphone. Iphone 6 works only with 2 of them but im sure all of them oem and im not using after market cables. After plugged in saying that this cable is not certified and i know it it is oem apple cable. What could be wrong with it? Very strange thing and this is first time i see this issue. Thank you

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Try cleaning the charger port on the phone with the issue. Use a toothpick or something equivalent to clean it. Otherwise it may need the charger port replaced or at worst the charging ic chip is faulty in a way (need someone here to verify if this is a possibility judging from the symptoms or not)

They are not all the same - though looks like pretty similar. You are after Apple MFI Certified Lightning to USB Cable.

You are not the first one to have this issue.

Been having it on a client's iPhone 6 and iPad Mini.

I don't think much can be done about it other than finding a charging cable that works with the phone.
