Galaxy A32 showing random static noise in the screen

This phone started to show some static noise in the screen like in the posted image. At first, it happened sometimes, and would come back to normal after turning off for a long time and turning on again, but then became like that all the time. The phone apparently works, but nothing appears on the screen, even in recovery mode.

I thought about replacing the screen, but it's expensive and I'm afraid of it being another issue, like with the gpu or something not related to the screen. Has someone seen a similar problem? What do you think is happening in here?

Thanks in advance

Id switch it off if I were you. I once saw this on an old VHS tape and it didn't end well.

If it was me I would try re-seating the display cable. That happened to me once after replacing a battery. Might not work so if you do try it, be prepared to do the work of cleaning and re-applying screen adhesive for nothing.

Did you try smacking the side of it with an open palm really hard?!? Always seems to work in old movies & TV shows.

Thanks for the suggestion. It's not so cheap around here, but still worth if I can be sure not be something more serious
