Ok I need some help please. I dropped my phone (Samsung Galaxy A20) while I was running. Immediately as I picked it up the screen was completely black however the music I was listening to was still playing and my running app was still working. Even now, I can connect my headphones to the phone using Bluetooth and when I plug it in to a charger the phone buzzes and I can turn the volume up and down. Seemingly it is only the screen that's not working. My theory is that the screen was disconnected from the battery by the jolt of the fall. I have three questions.
Is it possible that the screen is just disconnected from the power source or is that too simplistic? If that's a possibility, how hard would this be to investigate myself and are there any resources online that could show me how to do this myself? If I took this to a repair shop, how likely are they to try and scam me out of a bunch of money by just insisting the screen needs to be replaced without first investigating whether there's some other fix?
I anticipate that you might get these kinds of questions all the time and you might find them tiresome or stupid or whatever, so thankyou for anyone who takes time to read all of this and reply.

Should I get an iphone SE 3rd gen or spend just a bit more and get an iphone 11?

Any opinion on moto edge 20 pro? I see people often recommend poco f3 instead but I can get the former in person at pretty much the same price without needing to deal with online sellers.

The smartphone killed the DSLR jew. There still are a few shills here and there, but no one will think otherwise.

Shit software and software support. Common chink ROM issues such as crazy throttling and 60Hz limit in most applications. Locked bootloaders as well, all the meme flagship downsides such as no jack and sd card, with none of the vhink perks either, such as IR blaaster, and often even missing meme flagship perks such as an IP rating.
Does design matter? Samsung flagship phones are more beautiful than iPhone but no one seems to care about it. But at least that will look like iPhone X with case

Both Apple and Samsung phones look good. Even budget models from both of them have some sort of cohesion and uniformity.
Meanwhile most Chink brands have zero thought put into their design and look ugly as sin.
Remember the Realme 8? It still to this day holds the crown for the ugliest smartphone I have ever seen
Whats a good alternative to the Samsung Galaxy a52 that's available in Canada? Will be on Fido. The a53 5g is available here but I would rather save money and get a last year model. I do see some a52 international versions on amazon but some of the reviews are bad/say they are locked for Indian sim cards only. Also want a headphone jack.

Any recommendation to spoof two different, static locations to two different apps?
