Just asked out of curiosity so plz don't hurt me. I heard some people only get bootloops but some SAY you will brick your device.

Also let's say I bricked my phone. How much will it cost to repair from official Sony centre. I have insurance but they say for any damages I have to pay £200 in advance ( that's just crazy!)

It will relock your bootloader, that's it.
