iPhone 14 pro max purple/black screen, unable to use the device.

has anyone else had their 14 pro max have a purple screen or even a black screen and aren’t able to do anything on the device ? I had to contact Apple to help me turn my device on. I have never had this issue before with iPhones until I got this one.
