I am very anxious even with normal maintenance - heating adhesive up is not something I am capable of now. So was looking at new last-gen Pixels instead, and 7a is $300 :( People I know who have it say it's good hardware, but that's still an insane sum to spend on a phone.
Tbh it's not a bad price looking at what other phones are out at that price. Your looking at a great screen, awesome camera, ok battery life, and snappy enough performance for everyday stuff.
At the end of the day it's what you can afford and what you need. If you have a small repair shop nearby it wouldn't hurt to give it a try, see how expensive the repair might bee. If your current phone is fine then keep using it, if you need a phone on a budget I'd go used, anything new under $200 will most likely be worse than anything you can get used, and if you want something new that pixel 7a wouldn't be half bad tbh.
