iPhone X Max just froze

After the latest software update I did a week ago, my iPhone X Max started misbehaving and freezing. When I tried restarting it, it showed me the slide to power off button but it’s frozen too, and I cannot restart my iPhone and can’t use it at all. What should I do besides waiting for my battery to die off?

iPhone X frozen and unresponsive Hello my iPhone X is completely frozen and unresponsive to touch. I can’t switch it off as I can’t slide the slider. I have tried the tip I found on line of pressing the volume up and then down buttons and then the off switch but it’s doesn’t work. I can’t do a thing to it. I upgraded it earlier today to the new IOS. can anyone help

Iphone XS frozen since update I recently updated my iPhone (to 10.4.2?, the latest) and today, moments after I started using it this morning, fully-charged, it stopped working. I can't get it to respond in any way. When I went to shut down/restart, it is now stuck. Holding the two top/side buttons activates SOS Emergency (though neither an ambulance nor police have showed up, and my family hasn't written in alarm) but it won't shut off. The only thing I can think to do is wait all day until the battery dies, then hope a restart makes it function again. Any alternative fixes would be dearly welcome.
