Hi,

I had a water damage on my iPhone 5S a long time ago, i fixed it with the rice bag method and everything worked fine after. Since 3 days my iPhone just randomly decreases brightness and the screen gets unresponsible, to fix it i have to lock the phone and unlock it. Now today i noticed something scary, look at the video:

I really think my display is dying, should i replace it?
 
Seems your screen is dead...
Hope the motherboard of your phone is still OK, if so, replacing the screen can solve this problem.

Looks fine man.

Also enjoyed your Far Cry 4 videos. Awesome work.
 
Thanks don.

I put the 5S in a rice bag over night and the problems seems to be gone.
