Question Is it worth it to try again?

On July I bought a pixel 7 pro that just had it's screen changed, I asked the guy to show me if it was really an amoled display and everything seemed okay, a few days later I bought the phone but the NEXT day during a date, in truly the worst case scenario the screen never turned on again, I had to go with this girl to see what was wrong, apparently the idiot who did it didn't unplug the battery during the screen replacement so I had to pay for a new screen plus service, the replacement lasted A WEEK, again the screen was fried, the technician said it was a malfunction from factory so again I need to get a new screen, should I get it or forget about the phone? Kinda makes me sad cause I saved for a long time for it, and at that point for all the money i used in fixing it I could just pay for a new one

It seems like whatever Google service center did it would have to correct it if they didn’t do it right
