iPhone will not turn on

phone had been working fine. Went on a walk for about an hour, tried to open phone and it would do nothing. I did volume keys and other to restart and nothing happened. Tried charging for an hour and tried again. Nothing happens.

No dropping or know damage to the device. Just seems dead


iPhone X, iOS 16

Try a few more Forced Restarts. Follow the instructions very carefully, as this is a bit tricky. You may need to repeat this several times.

There are only 2 possible results when you perform a Forced Restart:


1) The phone returns to normal operation.....or, if it doesn't.....


2) There is a hardware problem with the phone that will need attention at the Apple Store (make an appointment) or take the phone to an authorized Apple Service shop.


You can find a list of authorized service shops in your area using the link just below:
