Customers highly value the protection, peace of mind, coverage, and warranty that AppleCare+ offers. They appreciate the affordable price, hassle-free replacement service, and excellent customer service. However, some customers are concerned about the deductible and the fact that the screen may still crack despite the protection. Others mentioned that they purchased AppleCare+ because they are clumsy or because of the short battery life of the Apple Watch.

It covers everything from damages, glitches to scratched screens. They actually give you a brand new Apple Watch any time something happens. Can't beat that for an extra $50.00!

I always recommend people getting insurance on their products they buy specially when it’s over $200; So far this insurance has been good to me. I have had problems in the past with products that I buy and I don’t purchase insurance and they end up breaking after one year and I didn’t have insurance so I lost money on that. So I recommend Purchasing this insurance.

I know it seems like such a hassle to spend even more money on Apple care when you’re already spending so much on the product itself, but I can’t tell you how many times I wish I had apple care and I didn’t. This time around I was smart and got it. It covered my watch when I accidentally dropped it and cracked he screen. Replaced it and everything. JUST DO IT, spend the extra $$ or you’ll pay for it else where.

I’ve been buying Apple products since the first Macintosh & we always buy AppleCare. Yes, it’s insurance. Yes, Apple makes superior products. Yes, I’ve used my AppleCare. Not often, but if something DOES fail, you can’t beat their standard of customer service. I’ve had computers replaced completely, parts shipped for installation, etc. I hate insurance but I buy it...because IF you need it, it’s great to have!

This is a must feature you have to get with the Apple Watch. One of the main reasons because you can't add it later you can only get it at the time of purchase with the watch also the watch can get easily damaged especially the kind of person that's getting it or who your giving it to. I'm generally a ver carful person with my stuff and I even got some surface scratches on it. It's also very helpful if it stops taking or holding a charge if it's not responding properly or connecting to your phone. And if your buying it as a gift that is the gift is the apple care it is an absolute and could be a life saver for $49 how could you not get it!

AppleCare+ for the Apple Watch

Buying AppleCare+ for your Apple Watch is a smart thing to do. After wearing your new Apple Watch for a short time, it becomes very natural feeling and you stop thinking about it on your wrist. At that point, it's easy to whack it into something while going about your daily routine. Apple's coverage is great, and covers a lot of different types of damage. It's very affordable insurance!

I purchases the Apple Care fot my watch and my new Mac Pro and its well worth the money. As with any new device you will have some guestions and the customer service representive are very knowledgeable and courteous. They will work with you and stay with you until the problem is solved. This is the reason I all Apple no shifting from one person to the next.

My Apple products barely EVER get hurt, but I had to get this with my watch, just in case. I sometimes get it on my phone, but I don't do it often because of the price. But, for $50? On the watch? It wasn't a hard decision because more than likely, it would get a bit roughed up! So far, I haven't had any scratches, but it makes me feel better to know that I have the protection!

Always get AppleCare+

I think it's critical to get AppleCare+ with your Apple Watch. Unlike the iPhone, the Apple Watch is not a device that would do well in a case. I have seen some cases but I am disappointed in them. My wife was very adamant in wanting to get a particular color Apple Watch, which a case defeats that. The price is low enough to where the cost is worth it.

Than to not have it at all. You can't predict what can go wrong and when. Haven't had to use Apple Care yet but I know when I have to it will be extremely worth it. I have Apple Care on my MacBook Pro, iPhone, Apple Watch, and iPad. Although it doesn't cover stolen devices it covers just about everything else. Thanks Best Buy for offering Apple Care.

Apple Care is your sure fire way of getting your item replaced or fixed with minimal fuss. Be honest about what happened. Most of the time they are very understanding and will do everything they can to replace the item with no deductible. I always get it for my phones and watch. It covers everything in the box. Device, charging cable, wall brick, etc.

$49.99 for AppleCare+ plus $69.99 for incidentals is definitely worth buying for an Apple Watch since it'll be out in the open and can get banged up easily. Getting AC for the Sport version is crucial since the IonX glass isn't as durable as the sapphire glass on Watch Edition. Highly recommend this to anyone investing (more like wasting) $400+ on an Apple Watch

If you have purchased the apple watch, you must get the applecare+ for apple watch, you only pay $69 for a replacement watch instead of full retail price. the only downside only cover extra 1 year total of 2 years. Wish it's like the mac apple care total of 3 years. overall I think it's great to have for a peace of mind.

Care-product came in handy when my girlfriend hit her watch on a wall and chipped the screen. This program provides another screen protector for the watch and we only paid $5 for shipping opposed to paying nearly $300 for another watch. Highly recommended for your device and “peace of mind.”

We have purchased AppleCare for other Apple products over the years and have luckily only used it once on a MacBook Air. Apple replaced the mother board with embedded graphics in less than a week at no charge! Very pleased. It gives you peace of mind knowing you are protected against any incident...even accidental!

Apple Care is always a good idea on Apple products. I worry that my watch screen may break on something when I swing my arms as I walk. Hopefully I never have to use it, but it is nice to k no ow I have this protection plan.

When I purchased my apple watch, I didn't buy the 2 year warranty for extra coverage. After I got home, I wished I did but was told I would have to go through apple to get it within 60 days of my purchase. I'm happy that I signed up for the two year warranty just as a precaution and ease of mind.
