So I dropped my phone last week and now the screen won't come on. It isn't cracked, and the phone seems to be working since the alarm still goes off every morning and if I ring it, it works, but the screen just won't come on and I've tried rebooting it with holding the power button pressed.
I went to a local phone shop and they quoted me £90 to fix it. I just called up One Plus repair and they said a screen would cost £71. However, they may be additional costs too and they can't give me an idea of how much that would be. On their website, it says:
And you will be charged a corresponding amount of out-of-warranty repair labor when paying for replacing
a certain part/parts.

Does anyone have any idea how much this extra could be? I'd rather go official to get it fixed if it's going to be basically the same cost, even if it takes 7-10 days instead of the next day the local guy is offering, but not if it could end up being a lot more. I could reject the estimate once they give it to me, but means 5 more days at least of being without it.
Have also considered just ditching it and buying the One Plus 7T instead, but wouldn't have upgraded it otherwise and quite happy with the 5T, so not there yet...yet...
