Is My iPhone 4s fixable?

LegitStunning

I have an iPhone 4s 32gb and I recently dropped it off my bunk bed onto concrete. It heavily smashed near the top corner of the iPhone close to the front camera, and scatched a good bit on the screen. Now, when I try to unlock/switch on my phone, the phone lights up a bit, but does not display anything. It is still responsive, as the phone still changes from silent to vibrate when I flick up the side button. It seems like the graphics or something similar has broken. Has this happened to anyone else? Is it fixable by a shop like GSM solutions or others? Thanks in advance.

With the screens of iPhones there's a layer of glass and then the LCD screen itself, with most drops just the glass breaks sounds like your whole LCD might he gone. I'd take it to a repair shop before writing it off completely, but make sure you get a price first as it might not be worth it.

Where are you living that you get out of bed onto concrete?

I actually thought that too when I first read it.

Generally repair shops will replace the whole display on the phone, as the digitizer, glass and LCD are glued together, so its a pretty easy fix, probably roughly €80 depending on the shop
