Hello all! I got this philodendron today hoping I can save it. It seems to me like it's been way overwatered which is causing the browning of the leaves. Should I remove the brown leaves are just leave them? Any other tips, tricks, or suggestions would be appreciated! Thank you!
I personally would trim the dead ones back to where your plant can focus its nutrients to the healthy leaves and focus on growing more in general!

You need discard the entire leaf because this plant still needs to oxygen to other stems… it’s best to trim all the way back to just the best leaves

If anything they will help the plant bounce back quicker. Definitely suggest a repot and check for any root rot. Removing damaged roots will help more than removing damaged leaves.
