How it seemed to start... I dropped my phone on it's face.. Not hard and it has a case on it to protect it. Everything was fine... I did spill a little water on it earlier that day, but shouldn't matter as it's an XS. So, after dropping it I was on a call and the screen started to flicker, almost like an old school tv would. Then the screen went totally black! I couldn't see anything. I'm still on the phone with my friend on speaker but nothing works and it's all black. I told them to hang up on me. Literally was messing with it for hours and still all black screen. I can hear text messages coming it and notifications, but can't see anything. I know to restart it, you hit volume up botton, vol down button, then hit the side button which gives that "slide to restart" feature, but I can't see it or where it is to slide it - again because the screen is black. A few times the screen flickered back on but barely, like it was a bad connection inside, it didn't come fully back on. Finally battery died after 6 hours. When I turned it back on this morning it worked! Saw the screen slightly flicker once, but it's still on and working. Any ideas here???
Saw this below, but don't think it's the same???

XS/XS Max Screen Flicker?
Has anyone noticed any screen flickering. The best way to describe it is my autobrightness is struggling to adjust correctly. I’ve noticed it twice today and lasted a couple of seconds while using it. Last happened using WhatsApp. There are no blue/red lines etc.
