What to do with an Iphone working normally but front and back damaged badly?

I've got an Iphone 11 and It fell down from very high and got smashed back and front, but it still working well touch screen, turn on and charging normally. However half front screen is discoloured.


I took to a repair shop and for the price doesn't worth to fix it.


What can I do with it? Recycling is the only option?

Hello!


Maybe you could try to sell it? Maybe someone could use it for parts. I’m not sure though. If I were you I’d post it on Facebook Marketplace for example for a week or so, see if someone wants it (for parts?) Then if no one wants it, recycle it.


If you do sell it, see the following: What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


Other than that I myself don’t know of any other ways of dealing with a broken iPhone that aren’t a waste of time and money. But perhaps other users may have other ideas.


Have a great day!
