While many phone problems involve software malfunction, a cracked screen is easy to diagnose.

If you have a cracked screen you’ll have to drop it off to get the broken glass repaired. While a cracked screen won’t always affect how a phone works, and one can easily ignore cracks in their screen, this can be dangerous, as the glass can nick or cut your skin. Over time, more serious may also emerge such as dead spots, dimming of the backlight, dead spots, discoloration, or complete loss of touch.
