New PinePhone died after first WiFi setup

[phero]

Hi all!

I recently got my PinePhone and currently it's showing no signs of life. Not even a red led.
Here's what I did once I unboxed it.

1. Let it warm up to room temperature and dehumidify over 24 hours.
2. Removed the plastic covering the battery connections.
3. Connected the red USB to a USB2 charger and inserted the cable in the phone.
4. Waited approx. 5 hours. (Phone felt a little warm to the touch)
5. Removed the charging cable.
6. Held the Power button 2 seconds. Didn't work
7. Tried that a few more times. No luck.
8. Inserted the USB charging cable with power connected.
9. Held the Power button 2 seconds.
10. Phone turns on.
11. I complete the initial steps and finish off by entering my WiFi credentials.
12. Screen displays "Setup Complete"
13. Screen goes black with an audible click coming from the speaker. (Sounded like when the DC offset changes)
14. Phone stays off.
15. Power button does nothing.
16. No light from led neither red nor green.
17. Flash SD card with Mobian and insert it into the SD card slot.
18. Try to power on.
19. No life whatsoever.

Is the phone completely bricked or can I recover it somehow?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!
