Deep-Discharge Charging Glitch Hits iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone Air
Some iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone Air owners report a charging issue where after the battery fully drains, plugging in a USB-C charger fails to wake the device or show a charging indicator. Reports are surfacing on Reddit and iFixit, but the root cause and scope remain unclear. Apple has not publicly commented, and the problem persists into iOS 26.4.1/26.4.2 for some users. A MagSafe workaround revived one device, suggesting it may be hit-or-miss rather than universal.
