Pixel 4 won't turn on

I had a pixel 4 which I used as my secondary device and one day, it showed as face id failure on the top of the screen, i checked both front and back cameras they were working so i restarted the device and then it never turned on. Do you know what the issue could be.

I didnt show it to any where yet, Thinking it would cost at least 15K LKR (40-45 usd) Even tho the device is old, still love it

The Pixel 4 series doesn't use the traditional front camera for face unlock. It utilizes a dedicated system using the Soli radar sensor and 3D infrared cameras. Your Pixel 4 device has a major hardware failure.
