Xperia Z1 Compact Screen Has Locked

Help please!

Have only had my phone about a month. Decided to get a magnetic charging lead - seemed like a good idea at the time. The charger was rubbish - magnet's too weak to keep the charger in place and, now my screen has locked. All I can do is use the power button to turn the display on/off. I can not do screen unlock and the display has frozen at 20:02.

I have tried holding down the power button and volume at the same time but this has no effect (although it did make a shutter sound a couple of times so I've probably got a screen shot!) The first time I trried it, it did vibrate but the screen stayed locked. Now, it doesn't even vibrate.

Grateful for any advice.
