iPhone11 dead after ios 14 upgrade

Hello. My iPhone11 is dead after upgrading for iOS 14, complete dead. I noticed increased & rapid battery drain, and now it's dead.

Please help.

I visited Apple Store for repair and they confirmed it is now a paper-weight and complete dead.

iPhone 11, iOS 14

Hello,

If you took it to an Apple store and they said that it was dead, there is not much that anyone can do. However, as a last resort, try this:

1) If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won‘t turn on or is frozen

2) Go to another location and get a second opinion: Apple - Find Locations

If everything else fails, get an out-of-warranty replacement: iPhone Repair

Good luck.

Many Thanks. I tried t/s steps, however phone is still dead. I visited Apple store for a repair. This visit is with pre-appointment and my phone was checked for 2-3 minutes, and I was told it was dead and nothing could be done.

Today, I checked status of my ticket (online) and as per ticket update I never visited apple store for a repair and cancelled my reservation (I am shocked).

A while ago, I reached out to Apple Chat support, did similar t/s however phone is still dead.

I will now try with another apple repair store to get this fixed.

My other iPhone 11 has iOS 13 and working fine. On this one, I updated OS and it's dead now.
