Issues after updating my iPhone 14 Pro to iOS 17.4.1

I am having similar issues and my phone is now stuck in a boot loop.

You couldn’t be more wrong, not sure why you would even comment something so ridiculous, you did nothing but embarrass yourself. This update caused a lot of the same issues for people so no it’s not the equipment.

It's not always the iOS update's fault!  Many things can cause phone problems.  If you tell people you think it's an iOS update, it might make it harder to fix or find a solution for the real issue.

Remember, the right question often leads to the solution!

iOS updates aim to enhance user experience, boost security, and fix bugs rather than disrupt core features. The majority of the issues after updates might stem from underlying, unmentioned factors. Updates won't typically alter personal data but may refine settings or features. Backup before major updates for safety. Review Apple's update details and backup advice for a smooth process.

Kindly consider checking your settings and addressing any device issues before attributing the issue to external factors. This could be a pure coincidence that the iOS update affected the iPhone functions.

Before initiating a standard iOS update, it's advisable to create a backup. Have you completed this step? If yes, proceed with the restoration from the backup.

You are wrong. I installed update and had a thermal issue. I attribute it to update as the phone is 5 months old and is perfect condition. Never been dropped, wet, or exposed to high temps.
