I went to the beach with my iphone 6 in my pocket, when I got back I put it on charge and it was charging but a few hours later it wouldn't charge the next day. I was able to still use the phone but I couldn't charge it, it's now dead. I took it to an authorised apple reseller store and they said there is water inside and they will have to replace everything and it will cost $600 is there a cheaper option??

We have successfully repaired many phones that have been water damaged due to similar situations. We recommend that you get it in to us as soon as possible so the water does not cause any additional damage. It is extremely rare for a device to cost that much for repair. For an accurate quote we would need to see the device and run a diagnostic on the extent of the damage.
