    Check eBay for refurbished one should be around £150 unlocked with 12 months warranty from reputable seller.

    If it's just the screen they can be repaired reasonably cheaply. Check your local phone unlock/repair shop or even Gumtree, plenty advertise there to do screen repairs.

  • FWIW - a replacement screen and digitiser is easy to fit - albeit it's no so easy to remove as an unbroken one if it's anything like the 5 chassis. Parcel tape to hold the screen together may help.
