Could be the screen finally failed. It happens with updates.

Before arranging for a repair or visit to a genius bar, first try a Forced restart

Click here >   Force restart iPhone – Apple Support (UK)

If no better you should probably arrange a repair

Click here > iPhone Repair & Service - Apple Support

Or 

Click here >  Contact - Official Apple Support

Anything other than Screen or Battery may be a replacement phone and the price is in the article under "Other damage"

There is no compensation for hardware that fails during an update.



Regarding the Series 3 , once the iPhone is up and running there is not a lot of memory on board and you may need to erase it before trying to Pair.

Settings, General, Reset, Erase all content and sertigs
