They literally gave me a new phone for 29$. Plus I work in the construction industry. So ya I’ll stick with my coverage. You guys that say this are just screwing others over in my opinion.

    • @Joshtheweatherman
      @Joshtheweatherman 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      Battery replacements are completely free, front or back glass is $30 deductible versus $200+ at a repair shop. Accidental damage is $99 (they’ll more than likely replace your entire phone if parts cost exceeds the device value), and theft or loss is $149 deductible (they’ll definitely replace your phone then). It’s definitely worth it in the long run. Now if you get the cheapest iPhone, for example, the SE, then it might not be worth it since that phone is really cheap to get repaired.

    Totally agree. Health insurance -- a must if at all possible. Devices like phones and laptops -- optional. I had $68000+ surgery and ended up paying $1200. But paying monthly, annually or even one-time to protect a device that, if worst came to worst, I could replace with something cheaper -- I'd rather spend that money on something more rewarding. Off-topic: I could listen to you talk all day. For me, you are the definition of "charismatic". I go away feeling 50% happier.

    For most people, the upfront or low monthly cost of AppleCare and its excess if something happens, is much easier to budget for and manage than the out of warranty repair or replacement cost of an iPhone/iPad/Mac.
    $200 upfront or $5-15/month + $30-150 excess is a lot easier on most people’s finances than the $600+ immediate cost of repair/replacement.

      If you are in the position that you can't self-insure a phone you should get your finances in order. Or else use a cheaper phone. However applecare might still be worth it depending on how often you expect to break/lose a phone (I'm clumsy and forgetful)

    what are your thoughts on applecare+ for macbook pro products ($2400 and up range)? noticed you just talked about the phones (which I totally agree, I don't even get insurance for mine). i dont have applecare for my phone, but for my $2800 macbook pro it was just such a high price range and locked system that I had to buy the insurance for it. I'd argue the laptops cost more to replace and also cost a lot more in general to buy, just wondering your thoughts on those

    My partner has broken her iPhone 13 Pro Max's screen TWICE in the last 3-4 months (case but no screen protector); thankfully she has AppleCare. I think getting it is pretty individualized based on the person's individual clumsiness. Also I think her having the max phone makes her more prone to dropping it.
    I also have applecare on my iPhone 13, but sometimes question keeping it for that reason because I think I've only broken one screen from all the smart phones I've ever owned. Thankfully, Apple makes it pretty easy to cancel/get a partial refund if you feel like you don't need it anymore or the price doesn't justify "protecting" it anymore.

    Just get it. You’ll spend more $ at Starbucks. I also was the one not buying Apple Care. Until my iPad had a catastrophic malfunction right after the Apple warranty expired. It had to do with the chip, it was kind of detached from the board or something like that. To fix it, it was like performing a brain surgery, it was expensive and not many repair shops could do it. My almost new IPad became a paper weight. If I had Apple Care, for sure they would have replaced it. Lesson learned.

    Ndeewo, in general I agree and have never bought nor needed AppleCare+, however for my caseless new iPhone 13 mini I will certainly be getting it (after 60 days). My last phone was the OG iPhone SE 2016 and it was luckily never damaged in any way. Since the cost of repair to the mini (glass) is so high and there is no follow up mini iPhone in sight, I’d rather opt for the peace of mind on this one *if* something were to happen, despite being super careful with my hardware.

    I think it’s worth it, even though I always have buyers remorse after. But I use my phone like a computer everyday for work plus I like to game on it. I use a case and screen protector so I’m not super worried about cracking things. From past experience, I’ve had other things go wrong such as buttons that would stop working and camera focus motor troubles. If I didn’t have applecare they said it would cost me half the price of a new phone to get the camera focusing again. So while I may have buyers remorse now, I won’t be beating myself up in the Genius Bar line about to hand over hundreds of dollars to get back up and running again.

    If you always get the highest tier of Applecare, by the end of year 5 you’ve got the money to get a brand-new phone. That’s about how long I keep a phone. Never yet had to take an Apple device in for repairs, and I’ve always had at least one Apple device since I got an iPod Touch 2 when I was 8. Even if my brand-new iPad Air 5 that I’ve had for less than a week had something happen to it, I could just buy another one right now and be money ahead compared to if I had Applecare all this time. Something could happen to the second one, maybe even a third one, and I’d still be money ahead.

    My girlfriend is always dropping her phone. We're talking a few times per week. Mostly these aren't an issue because she has a protective case & screen protector but you can pretty much guarantee she'll break the screen every 18 months. I drop mine maybe once per year, and I've only ever broken the screen on my phone once. Her phones also experience far more problems than mine do, I liken it to boxers getting repeated sub-concussive brain injuries. Given it's a one price for all, it makes a lot more sense for her to be insured than me. However, we get phone insurance through our bank so can each get a single repair/replace (so covers catastrophic damage, so long as we still have something recognisable as having once been a phone) for £50, then anything above that is £100. So I have a 20% chance of using it, and if I do use it it only saves me £25, so an estimated value of £5 for the 2 year cover period (okay maybe slightly higher given I could drop it multiple times, but somewhat unlikely). Given it costs £199, it's a terrible value proposition for me.

    At a high level insurance exists for profit so the expected value of a policy has to be negative. However there can be some efficiencies associated with the repair process, and they effectively sell you the repair at cost. Plus depending on your individual experience with phone - if you are clumsy and have broken phones in the past, I certainly have - you have some information the insurance company doesn't (in insurance this is called "adverse selection" and why if you are a careful person it probably isn't a good deal)

    Hi! Good video, good vibes!
    I've been thinking of buying a NEW SEALED 2022 MacBook Air M2 which would have the 1 year limited Apple warranty.
    Considering that I normally don't take my laptop out of home, I move it only from my desk to the kitchen counter and back after using, and I'm very careful with my phone, tablets and laptops, would it be worth it to still get additional AppleCare+ extended coverage..? Or is the included 1 year limited Apple warranty good enough..?
    How likely is it really for a 2022 MacBook Air M2, that is NEW SEALED when I receive it, to have any functionality issues within the first three years, to malfunction on its own during that time...?
    Thanks for your time!

    So, GUYS! Help me out.
    I always buy an otterbox case for my iphones. Otterbox Defender. And a screen protector.
    So, that's the one I have for my current 14 Pro Max. I got me the 1TB version because i wanted a lot of memory to last me a long time without needing to upgrade.
    My prior phone was the 12 Pro Max 128gb and same thing; I had the Ottberbox Defender & screen protector.
    During the 2yrs or so with my 12, it literally only cracked the screen protector just once. But i never replaced it since it was just the screen protector lol
    Mind you with some of the work I do , my phone can drop from High places like a ladder or scaffold, or slips from my pockets or kinda toss it on tables lol
    a bad habit of mines (not clumsy tho lol)
    but that case protected it so well.
    Even my old iPhone 8, same thing otterbox and screen protector and that one never cracked or anything.
    So, with the 14, I'm thinking of getting AppleCare+, mainly to have it for a battery replacement ? Worth it?
    my 12 pro max was getting annoying since i had to be charging it 2x a day, and my whole World like revolves being on my phone always. Plus it ran out of memory too
    But would applecare+ be worth it for battery? the damages and unlimited repairs doesn't really wow me given my case that i use (i'm the paranoid guy who never wants to use slim cases despite how much more you can appreciate the beautiful iPhone lol) Seems you still have to pay for the battery anyways with applecare+, so idk?
    So, curious to hear everyone's thought here?

Both minis are in working condition and I plan to keep them for a long time. I also plan to get the batteries replaced in both models once they hit 80% battery health. I think insurance is needed for those who are hard on their phones and those people know who they are.

    • @the_letter_b
      @the_letter_b ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Agreed, well, depending on what Apple product you have and the plan cost. If you get an SE or an older model phone (new), it may not be worth it if you're generally pretty good about not damaging your phone. But if you have the newest line, especially the pros, I think it is. If you look at the repair costs without AC for the new Pros, they are quite high. One front or back glass screen break could cost more than a year's worth of AC. Even the theft version may be worth it for the newest Pro model as the new design makes it stand out a bit more, whereas regular 14 and older models look similar going back to iPhone X. Similar for higher end MacBooks. iMacs may be fine since they are going to be sitting on a desk. The AppleCare for the AirPod Pros is even more reasonably priced and probably worth it, greatly reduces the cost of getting replacements if anything happens to them. And yeah, of course these companies do the math and set a price where they will likely profit overall from it but from our perspective, we do not know if we'll be one of the unlucky ones and without it, you will feel a lot more pressure to be careful unless you're doing well financially or someone else pays for it (company or parents).

      Also, Apple has a history of not covering or fixing computers that were killed by their own manufacturing defects. For example, there was and still is a hardware defect in some Macs which results in 9 volts being sent straight into it's SSD, destroying it and the computer as a result (since the SSD cannot be replaced), and despite this being 100% the fault of a manufacturing defect, Apple has and continues to not cover it under warranty.
      In other words, without doing anything wrong, your Mac at any moment can destroy itself in a way Apple will refuse to take responsibility for and fix, so the only way to protect yourself from this is by purchasing Apple Care +.

If you don't need repairs you get to keep it.. almost always, you lose money in the long run by paying the juice for this AppleCare.
      That's why Apple sells it. You're spending a couple hundred bucks a year even on yours when you're not breaking anything. If you go back and do the math and keep track of all the deductibles and the monthly expenses on the Apple Care, I guarantee you you're losing out

    For a phone, I would not even consider it. Spare parts are not expensive and I can fix them myself. And I usually buy second hand anyway. That’s how you get the flagship products for cheap.
    For MacBooks, it’s another question. I can usually fix them myself but spare parts are often very expensive.
    Luckily I have never dropped or otherwise damaged a laptop in 25 years. But it could very well happen. It is a bit stressful to walk around with a $3600 fragile gadget. AppleCare could at least make three years a bit less stressful.
    We don’t have AppleCare+ where I live though so that’s not a question.
