    Smashed iPhone

    14 months old, highly doubt its repairable, it fell off my milling machine with a 10 lb peice of metal that it was on someone flipped around and got on top in mid air I guess and almost put a hole through it. Any way of getting Bell or apple to give me a new one or discount on another or am I just f*cked?

    if it was only the screen it would be an easy repair but it sounds like you've messed up the internals as well. good luck man, sounds like you'll be needing a new phone.

    maybe try a lifeproof or similar next time...

    iphones suck ass just for this reason--

    i have sprint, and they told me no insurance, only "apple care"-and it cost extra when you first purchase the product.

    hopefully you get sum thing-- but it proli wont be a discount.

    Brought it in for repair. Back cover, front screen, lcd, speaker, camera and it might work again.

    Only thing is I forgot to delete certain home movies off it before handing it over. O well.
