AppleCare: Is It Worth the Cost?

AppleCare is an extended warranty program offered by Apple that provides additional coverage for your Apple devices beyond the standard one-year warranty.

It offers peace of mind to customers by protecting their investment and providing the necessary support when they need it the most.

Here are some of the reasons why i'd recommend investing in AppleCare for all your Apple devices.

Extended Coverage

The standard warranty that comes with your Apple device is a limited warranty that guarantees the product will work as expected for up to a year, or two years for the Apple Watch Edition.

AppleCare+ provides additional coverage for up to two or three years (depending on the product) of hardware coverage, as well as coverage for accidental damage.

AppleCare+ offers a longer duration of coverage, which is one of the main benefits of the program.

Priority Access to Support

AppleCare also provides priority access to Apple support by chat or phone. This means that you get faster service and support when you need it the most. AppleCare's phone and chat support are available for the duration of the coverage.

Repairs

AppleCare covers the costs of any repairs your device may need for the duration of the cover, but only where it is the result of a hardware failure and not accidental damage.

With AppleCare+, accidental damage incidents such as liquid damage or broken screens are covered for up to an unlimited number of times, which is a significant improvement compared to the previous policy of two incidents every 24 months.

Accidental Damage

AppleCare+ with theft and loss coverage is available only in the United States and Japan. It covers two incidents of theft or loss for an additional fee and is not included in the standard AppleCare+ plan.

However, with accidental damage, there is a fixed deductible depending on the type of damage and the device. This is designed to discourage customers from claiming on non-essential incidents.

You still have to pay the deductible, the repair prices with AppleCare+ are generally much cheaper than for standard repairs through Apple.

Loss or Theft

AppleCare+ with theft and loss cover adds up to $100 to the price of AppleCare+, and the plan is only available for the iPhone.

This plan allows for two incidents of accidental damage, theft, or loss coverage every 12 months, providing you keep Find My enabled on your lost device.

There are also still deductibles for replacing a lost or stolen iPhone.

AppleCare Availability and Pricing

AppleCare plans are available for a range of devices, and the cost of the plan varies depending on which device it covers. Generally, the more expensive the device, the more AppleCare costs.

The cost of AppleCare+ for Mac ranges from $99 to $399, Apple Display for $499, iPad from $69 to $129, iPhone from $129 to $199, and Apple Watch from $49 to $149.
