Anything I can about my broken pixel xl

[Kaitlyn2004]

I think saltwater damaged my pixel. It endlessly boots, showing the Google logo on white screen then "turns off" and boots it again. One time, randomly, somehow it made it to the lock screen and did show my custom wallpaper, but seemingly nothing was responsive - swiping, buttons, fingerprint.

Anything I might be able to try or diagnose to possibly save the phone? Anyway I could at least recover the photos (not everything had finished backing up).

This is probably hardware damage. Maybe insurance will cover it, maybe not due to water. Everyone knows Bout the indicator for water damage. But, factory reset in recovery mode is worth a try. If you can even get that much functionality. Or better, if the bootloader was unlocked or that be attained. Try to flash a stock factory image.
