since the iOS 11 update my iPhone 7 Plus is exhibiting major issues

Currently it is completely locked up

I cannot switch it off
I can’t do a 2 button hard reset
No apps will open
iTunes icon is greyed out
I cannot swipe between screens
I cannot open apps from Notification Center

Only things that work is Siri and the home screen / control center / Notification Center

No idea how to even reset my phone now


It has locked on me before too, I was able to restart that time.

Camera has been malfunctioning all day today too. Open the camera app and just get a black screen. Takes several goes and force quits until it works
 
Hold the Sleep/Wake and volume down buttons down for 5 seconds. If that still doesn't work you can either try connecting to iTunes or letting the battery run out.
