AppleCare+ Theft and Loss for iPhone 11, XR, 8+, 7+, 6S+ - 2 Year Plan

The heading is as good a description as a longer one might be. The basic AppleCare+ insurance is a no-brainer to me. The cracked screen typically happens with me 2-3 times, during 2 years. However, Apple has increased the cost due to OLED screen on the front and a glass back. Certainly their replacement cost has increased for materials (OLED front screen) and likelihood of breakage (on glass back that used to be metal). So, although AppleCare+ is more expensive I still bought it at $199 — ouch! To add lost or stolen insurance is an additional $100 for a total of $299. When combining the replacement charge of $259 as a deductible if someone exercised the “lost / stolen” warranty, the combine cost is $558 out of pocket compared to about half the price of the current phone’s price — now at $1,150. I had two iPhones lost / stolen in a recent 2 year period. Prior to that I had 1-2 others lost / stolen. For me that is 2-3 phone lost / stolen in a 15 year period. That’s one every 5-8 years long-term history, or 1-per-year in recent history. Additionally, I have had 2-3 iPads lost / stolen in the past 5-7 years but only once was it not recovered. However, EVERY lost / stolen phone / iPad occurred associated with AIR TRAVEL travel, which I am not currently doing, and hope not to do as much in future. Will it happen again. Maybe.

I had apple care plus way back on my iPhone four. My speaker on that phone stopped working after about a year. I took it to the Apple store and they promptly exchange my damaged phone for a new one. It is because of this care I continue to buy apple care plus every time I buy a new iPhone.

When your iPhone is lost, stolen, and dropped. AppleCare will provide proper assistance to recover a new iPhone replacement. Applecare customer service is detailed and experienced to get your iPhone operating again regardless of your situation.

Due to the high cost of the MAX XS phone, I decided it was worth the cost of AppleCare. Now, a couple years later, I wonder. But I haven’t needed to use it. However, when you pay over a thousand dollars for a phone this brought peace of mind.

Totally would get the warranty for every electronic device I buy from them. So that I can have peace of mind knowing that whatever product I buy it's well protected!
