S23 froze then shut off and won't turn on

My 3.5 year old S23 (bought in Feb '23) seems to have died today. Everything was normal until I unlocked the phone, 2 seconds later it froze with a few visual artifacts, then it went black. It's been an hour and it still won't respond to any button combinations. It does light up any charger I plug it into (wired or wireless). It did the latest security update about 2 days ago. According to Life360, the phone had ~43% battery.

Anyone have any advice or a similar experience?
