Setting up iPhone 8

I am trying to set up my “new” (it was bought in 2017) iPhone 8 plus, but once i get to the update screen while setting it up, it just gets stuck. I’ve looked everywhere and done everything, but it always get stuck again. What should I do?

Did you tap install now? How long has it been spinning? Has this phone been activated? It says it has No SIM, you are going to need one to update.
