I just woke up today with the same issue on my iPhone 14 pro. Thankfully the alarm went off on my watch but my phone was completely off and unresponsive. I managed to get it back on by pressing Vol Up, Vol Down then press the Power button and keep it pressed until the Apple logo appears on the screen. When it booted up the battery was at 100% 🤔

This is most industries in general. If you’ve ever worked retail and paid any attention you’ll notice there are more cameras on staff than customers. Shrinkage from shoplifters is expected and built into the system/budget. It’s harder to catch and prosecute and often enough too dangerous to stop in the moment. They also know staff is going to steal but internal thieves are often brazen and think they know how to cheat the system. Lots of places have fake camera domes to draw the attention of internal thieves to one area while having hidden cameras elsewhere.

You need to keep 5-10% of your storage free for your phone to run efficiently. Tricky in this day and age I know; 64GB just wasn’t enough (even at release from around the 7/8/X onwards), 128gb+ is about right for most users.

If it’s a 13 it should still be under warranty anyway, talk to your mum about going to Apple together and getting it looked at

Why panic? But the first question is did you already try a hard reboot?

I’m sorry for the stress this has caused, and that you didn’t get the phone you ordered. I really think, though, that you are unlikely to fill the 256 GB model unless you are planning to take a ton of Pro RAW images or a bunch of 4K video. For regular people just snapping pictures and quick video of their lives, you’ll be fine.

I once bought the 512 GB version, but when I next upgraded, I looked at my storage and was using less than a quarter of the capacity, so I dropped back to the 256 GB for my current phone. I pay no attention to how big my apps are, hardly ever delete anything, and keep the full sized photos on it, and I’m still only using 94 GB. My wife uses even less than that and she also pays no attention to how much storage she uses.

Unless you are a YouTube content creator, or a travel blogger, I really think you can feel comfortable with this phone meeting your needs. If you can, try to put the whole thing behind you, focus on what a great phone you have, and let yourself really enjoy it. It’s an amazing device.
