My iPhone 13 Pro Max suddenly displays blank screen after updating to iOS 18

My iPhone 13 Pro Max suddenly display blank screen after I updated it to iOS 18. Screen was responsive however I cannot see anything. I’ve tried shutting it down and start it again multiple times, but it still persists. Is this an issue from updating my software? How long should I wait? Or should I go and get it fixed?

  • Press and quickly release VOLUME UP


     then

  • Press and quickly release VOLUME DOWN


     then

  • Hold the SIDE button until an Apple logo appears (15-30 seconds), ignoring "slide to power off" if it appears


The operative word here is QUICKLY; and try it a couple of times, the timing is a little tricky. If done correctly this will always work unless the phone has a hardware problem.
