    Guys, my son totaled his iPhone X last night.
    This phone has had multiple screen replacements, camera was shaking and Face ID not working etc so not worth fixing at this stage.

    It’s still vibrating, making sounds, receiving calls and texts but as the photo shows, is unusable. There are various bits that broke off and are gone.

    Is there anyway to get his photos (obviously not backed up), he’s a teenager 👀

    Dropped it into a local screen repair place in coolock.

    New camera, new screen. €80. Back working again.

    Reduce, reuse and recycle as they say. Cheaper than a replacement phone.

    I genuinely thought it was beyond repair!
