iPhone won’t turn back on

i left my iPhone 11 in my bag while I was at the beach. No water got to it except for maybe a little bit from my fingers but not enough to cause any water damage. When I went on it, it said “no SIM card installed” so I turned off the phone by holding down the power button. Now it won’t turn back on, I’ve tried charging it but nothing comes up on the screen, connecting it to iTunes but it doesn’t connect, pressing the volume buttons then the power buttons etc. When I held the volume buttons and power button together it turned on for a couple of seconds, was really laggy and the volume bar kept coming up on the screen even though I wasn’t touching the volume buttons. Then it turned off by itself and won’t turn back on again.

iPhone 11, iOS 14

Hello,

I'm going to assume that you have some water damage. See these steps:

1) Remove any case that may be on the phone and let it thoroughly dry out (especially the charging port). Check the charging port for lint or other debris.

About splash, water, and dust resistance of iPhone 7 and later

Water and other liquid damage to iPhone or iPod isn't covered by warranty

2) See this: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won‘t turn on or is frozen

3) Also see these links:

If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won‘t charge

If your computer doesn't recognize your iPhone, iPad, or iPod

If you get an alert about the SIM card in your iPhone

Good luck.
