iPhone XR in boot loop.

I have restored my phone using iTunes. I have set up as a new phone rather than downloading iCloud backup to remove likelihood of software issue. This hasn't fixed the problem. What can I do now? My phone will stay on occasionally but its unusable and only works for a couple of minutes before shutting down and restarting over and over again.

iPhone XR, iOS 14

Why did my iPhone 7 (15.5) get stuck in a boot loop, and how can I prevent it from happening again? Half an hour ago, my iPhone 7 spontaneously shut itself off. The Apple logo appeared with a thin progress line under it and stayed there for several minutes. Then the progress line started to fill, as if downloading something, but when it got to the end, the phone shut down again. This process was repeated twice more. The third time, I got the passcode screen and everything seems to be normal again. I'm pretty low-tech, so I looked up "boot loop" on the internet and apparently this is a thing and sometimes the boot loop just keeps on going. I wasn't using the phone when it started, and I'm worried that something is wrong with the phone and the next time I won't be able to get my phone or data back. Any advice about how to keep this from happening or what you can do when it does? Thanks!

iPhone 7+ Reboot Loop Hi everyone, I left my phone plugged in before I went to sleep last night and woke up this morning to a reboot loop that just won't stop. So far, I tried to force restarting the phone and doing a restore and update using my MacBook. It downloaded the update and started restoring my phone. After it was completed, a pop-up appeared saying to keep the phone connected to my computer until it restarts. I waited and the Apple logo shows and the loading bar. After a minute, the loading bar loads a little bit and the phone shuts down again and back to the Apple logo and loading bar again. It just keeps repeating and repeating. Please help. Thank you!
