    Hi guys

    Looking for some help. Yesterday my phone crashed after sitting at 1% for about 30 mins. when I try to charge it now it just remains with the charging symbol on but won't actually power on. I get an error message saying that this data cable accessory is not compatible with this device. Today I upgraded my phone to an iPhone 5SE.

    I am now left with this iPhone 5s that will not turn on. Should I send it to Apple as it is still in warranty? Or should I try and get it fixed independently and then sell it on?

    Sounds like either a charging port issue or battery. If it's under warranty might as well send it to Apple. Get it fixed free. Then sell It

    Thank you.

    It's actually turned back on with a different charger now which is odd!
