I own a Samsung A52s 5g 128 GB. This happened sometime during yesterday, I usually charge my phone during the night and take it off in the morning. Though however after after I noticed it had been going low on battery sometime during the evening, around 20:00 to be specific which is normal since I had been using it a lot through out the day, I plugged it in and it just wouldn't charge, thought it was my charger so I tried a different one, still nothing. So I searched a few things up on my laptop and it said to clean it out which I did but still nothing, I ran the diagnostic test and it detected nothing. Is there anything I can do? This phone is still new barely just 2 years old and I don't want to buy a new one since I have other plans for my money.

@Daniiels Do the chargers fit snugly into the charging port? Is there any damage to your phone or the charging port?

Yes, they do. The only damage I know is a scratch on the screen that is barely visible, I'm not sure about internal damage or any on the charging port and I do not know how to check, there's never been any charging issues or any issues for that matter before.

i had exactly the same thing with my A52. At first I couldn't discover anything wrong with my charging port. However, when I compared it with my son's A52S, I noticed that completely at the bottom of the USB-C port, there was a built-up of pocket lint.
I had to use a flashlight to discover the difference.

I used a wooden toothpick, which I had to split in length because it was too thick otherwise. 
I took my time to "peel off" all the layers which had built up over 2 years.

After finishing I realised that a how much pocket lint had collected in there. I noticed that the plug could enter deeper in the USB-C port.

If completely clean, you should be able to see at the bottom of the USB-C port 4 metal connectors (1 in each corner)

Hope this is of any help to you!

 

PS I apologise that I most probably do not use the correct technical terms
