I could buy a new pixel 4a for under €200. On ifixit a new screen is €100, battery €40, usb-c port €30. After shipping costs and paying someone to do the work it would be more expensive and the front camera lens would still be broken. Fixing it really isn’t worth it, and if I’m buying new I might as well go for an upgraded model that’s gonna get updates for longer.

Hey, it had a good, hard life and went down fighting. That’s all you can ask for.
Also you can repurpose an old phone as a Webcam, and many other uses
