I recently bought a used iPhone 16 from a reputable site, but after setting it up and letting it update, things went haywire. I couldn't tap on anything, so I restarted the phone. Now, it's stuck in recovery mode, and I can't seem to recover any data. What steps can I take to completely restart my phone and start fresh?

You might want to try connecting it to iTunes while it's in recovery mode. It often helps with restoring it.
Have you thought about using Apple Configurator? If you can put your iPhone in DFU mode and get the correct IPSW file, that might work for a full restore!
Be cautious, though—since it’s a used phone, just checking if it could be stolen. It’s worth verifying its history.
I’d suggest taking it to a repair shop. They specialize in fixing iPhones and can replace any faulty chips if needed.
