This sounds like what happened to my iPhone 5 that I had sent to a family member when I got my 5s. In her case she got a replacement because of a faulty power button.

Just take it to a Genius.

Press and hold both the power and home buttons until you see the  logo. Afterwards, release both buttons and let the phone boot to the home screen.

I was gonna say the same thing, we get 3-5 people everyday that come into the store with this problem.
