I didn't sleep well...

Went to microwave my coffee, and put my phone in there instead. 8 seconds. Its still ringing and making notifications noises, but the screen won't work.

Repair shop isn't confident that it's only a screen issue.

Is it trash?
$200 for a new screen

You are lucky it didn't cause a fire. You should probably get a new phone because there is likely more damage than just the screen. You will be trying to fix random issues forever.

With all the metal in a phone, it probably looks like a small bomb went off inside. See what little you can get trading it in and buy a new phone. It’s not going to be worth the aggravation going forward.

Ever put a CD in the microwave? This is what the inside of your phone looks like now...
