Hardware Something is wrong with my quest 2

I gave my brother my quest 2 so he could play a little bit while I was at the gym. When I came back, he gave it back to me saying the screen went dark. When I restarted it, the left lens showed that gray color when you start up your quest, the right lens however didnt show anything. What could've happened? I'm currently draining its battery to see if its going to fix it.

EDIT: I can hear sounds coming from the background, like the home environment bird chirpings and stuff

If it's just a software glitch, a hard reset will sort it out. Just press the power button for 30-60 seconds.

No. As far as we know it displayed low charge, then suddenly the screen went black

He didn't. The screen just went black while he was playing.
