A lot of things can cause a phone to stop or loop during the boot cycle. The key question here is did this happen out of the blue or following a repair, drop or contact with water?

Try these things (if you haven't already) to see if anything helps:

  • Try a hard reset (Home & Power button for 10 secs)
  • Use a genuine Apple Lightning connector
  • Use a genuine Apple charging brick and let it charge overnight
  • Try to connect it to different computers (mac/pc if possible) with an updated iTunes
  • Change the battery. The battery is the weakest link in the entire phone
  • Put the phone in recovery mode (search DFU Mode). Careful, this can reset your data
  • Use 3uTools for putting it in and out of Recovery Mode
  • Use 3uTools to flash the firmware (you can't downgrade)
  • Check the condition of all the flexes (with magnification)
  • Disconnect the Front Camera Ribbon from the logic board and reboot your phone
  • Disconnect the screen assembly completely and see if iTunes will recognize the phone.

 Otherwise, you may have a logic board issue. If you are uncomfortable doing these steps, consider finding a repair shop to do the troubleshooting. A shop that also does micro-soldering can go deeper if the problem is not modular in nature.

Has anything been replaced or repaired on the device? also you can still get it into recovery regardless of how long its on for, just hold the volume down and power button until you see the iTunes logo.

You can try disconnecting the front camera flex and booting the device this could yield a better result.
