Step #2. Now, tap on About.

Step #3. Next, scroll down to the Serial Number and copy it.

Step #4. Next up, go to Apple’s iPhone 8 checker tool. And then paste the serial number and hit the Submit button.

In case your device has a logic board issue, the tool will confirm that. And if this is the case, you need to give your device for the repair.
