Phone has black screen but is recognized by my computer?

So my iPhone 6 suddenly shut off and I've tried the home/lock screen trick...nothing. I've charged with a wall charger and also plugged the USB into my laptop and my computer recognizes the device yet my screen still won't turn on.

How exactly am I supposed to go about fixing this.. Should I just buy a new phone?

The phone is on, the screen just isn't working I supposed. I had my friend call and it rings all the way through.

HELP!!

Use a flashlight and flash it on the screen and look carefully... Test by using wake/sleep, home button and connect to itunes to see if you can see a faint image. If so, your phone is ok, it just needs a backlight repair. If not, it may still be okay but need to troubleshoot a couple more things first. Post back with your results

What is your experience on Iphone repairs? You may have to check voltages on a few video rails to verify you are receiving 5.7, -5.7 and 1.8. It could also be bad cap, filter or Chestnut IC or LCM reset. If you are handy with a multimeter and have microsoldering experience and tools you could repair it yourself, or if not, send it to an experienced microsoldering tech listed here on Ifixit or find one locally near you.
