If it became unusable, presumably you deactivated it, which means it was tallied into this article's estimation of lifespan.
Important to consider that what HNers call unusable is perfectly acceptable to a great number of people. I've never used a phone with a cracked screen, but I've seen a fair number of people who don't consider this a reason to deactivate the device.
