I’m not usually a fan of insurance for phones. I tend to take great care of my phones and rarely need to repair anything so the money towards them always felt like giving away money. But with the cost of the iPhone X and the cost of repairs such as the screen and back glass out of pocket being far more than I would want to pay I definitely knew that it was worth it to get AppleCare+. I’d much rather pay $29 for a broken screen. Not to mention I love that Apple stands behind their replacement devices and that we can often just into an Apple store and have a replacement in hand immediately versus having to wait for a refurbished replacement (assuming you have an Apple store in your area or one is a reasonable drive away). Apple support has always been amazing for me also so it’s a no brainer to invest in their extended protection. Only negative is that AppleCare+ doesn’t cover loss or theft so keep that in mind.
I also love the monthly option over paying upfront if you know you’re likely to upgrade in a year or less. You can cancel those payments at any time if you no longer need it. But if you’re someone that tends to keep their phones for the full 2 years and beyond it’s more economical to just pay for it upfront.

AppleCare is a MUST have. For the cost of a couple coffees a month you can get this warranty. I've had many Apple i-devices and they all get the warranty. Especially now with the cost of the devices it is worth having this peace of mind for 2-3 years depending on what you get. Totally not worth having a new device to worry about not having coverage in the event of a cracked screen etc.

Purchased this for my daughter's IPhone 11. About a month after getting the IPhone, her roommates dog knocked her phone off of the chair and shattered the screen. She was given another phone right away. They said they would replace the phone 1 more time. For the price of these phones, the Applecare was well worth it.

THis is a great product to have on a phone considering the cost of the phone is well worth the price of AppleCare and is much better than having to flat out pay for a new phone at full price. Love that it goes through Apple so you jknow it is well repaired should the situation require it.

I’m glad I decided to pay extra for this. My daughters phone quit working for unknown reasons right before a year having it. They replaced it with a new one, with no problems
I would recommend this to a friend

Apple care is great at easing my mind every time my phone accidentally hits the ground. Getting the coverage needed for any damage or repair is quick and easy, and costs considerably less than repairs without coverage.

If you spent the money on a brand new iPhone X, please get AppleCare+ to protect your investment. You’ll thank yourself if you ever have to replace the screen. Much, much cheaper than having to pay for it yourself.

Purchased with my iPhone X . Feel better having this insurance . The phone was pricey so if something happens to the screen or phone itself I didn’t want to pay a lot of $$ for repairs. A piece of mind ,

I bought an iPhone 8 and it only cost 6$ a month. If you recently purchased a phone then it’s worth it for a couple months. Once the phone is a couple months old just cancel it

If you spend the money on the phone, you have to spend the money for protection. This is excellent and comes with a great warranty. Pay the extra for Best Buy to apply it so you don’t get bubbles

I hope I don't have to use this but for the price of the phone, i believe it's worth it. If anything happens before the two years, this phone is replaced up to two times for $29.

We have never been offered the AppleCare+ plan before. It seems to be much better than Verizon's insurance. For $7.99/mo, I think it is definitely a good deal.
