Same thing happened to mine, except i woke up from a hard night at the bar and was like oh **** i left my iphone at the bar then i saw it and was like yes until i turned it around and then it was all ****.... But it still worked fine jus cut the hell out of my fingers using it. so i suggest you put that screen protector on it plus a case.

Iphone doesnt come with a warranty. If you look on youtube there are several "how to" videos on how to fix your iphone. Most of them come with links to sites where you can buy the replacement parts and tools to fix it for cheap.

I bought an OtterBox case for mine and it has survived honestly probably well over 50-60 drops. And i'm a firefighter so mine sees some rough **** sometimes. The Otter Box is the best thing I could have bought for my phone.

Case could have saved it. Check out the incase slider.

I got an Otterbox for mine. I used to always drop my phones and now I don't worry about it so much.
