iPhone XS Max damage

My phone sustained some water damage from the ocean. It was fine for a few hours later but then the screen started to glitch. The touch wouldn’t work on some places and then later the whole touch screen wasn’t working. Does Apple trade in phones with broken touch or is it better to get the screen replaced?

Read ▶︎ Water Damage (not covered by warranty). 💦


Turning on a wet machine can cause more damage and increase the cost of repair. ⚠️


Based on your situation, I recommend service.
