I need a new iPhone because my old one got wet?

I accidentally walked into my pool with my iPhone 5 in my pocket and now its sitting in a bowl of rice. If it doesn't recover I would like to know if there's a way to get another one new or used without paying extra since I'm not due for an upgrade for another year and a half. I don't have the warranty that covers water damage and I need a new iPhone 5.

You can hope that someone gives you a free one… Otherwise, without the warranty that covers water damage, you're screwed.

EBay or Craigslist would be your best bet, I bought a couple of them last week for $350. They won't be any cheaper than $350

$599.00

There's no way, unless you have apple care. With apple care, you could get another phone for 50 dollars.

You're not going to just get a free phone. It's doesn't happen like that. Expect to pay SOMETHING. If you do not have apple care, you'll probably have to pay the full retail price, unless a miracle happens

  • New iPhone 5 got wet and broke? My brand new iPhone 5 got wet and is not functioning. My parents signed a 2-year contract with AT&T. Is a new iPhone 5 going to cost a ridiculous amount of money? What can I do? I think it is under warranty. Please help i just wasted a boatload of my parents money and i feel horrible

  • Need an advice! My iphone got wet but still works fine? I spilled my water bottle on my backpack about 2 hours. I just noticed it when I opened my backpack and I saw my iphone 4s got wet, it wasn't submerged it's just wet. It still works fine, quickly I turned it off and haven't yet checked anything because I was shocked. Now that I got home I put it on a bag of rice. What to do after this? How long should I put this? I'm afraid if I turn it on before the phone completely dries it will get a problem.

And if its fine then can it be harmful to use travel charger everyday?
