I ended up using the AppleCare but only for the battery issue that was plaguing that series of phones. The large increase in screen size plus the rounded screen edges worried me about potential durability.
Out of my 9 iPhones since 2008, I've only ever bought Apple Care for one of them, the iPhone 6.

For Mac desktops, iPad (since it never leaves the house), Apple Watch, I'd probably skip AppleCare. My experience with iPhones have been very solid so far but since I spend so much money on them, I like having the protection. My alma mater just offered to buy me a new machine.ĪppleCare totally seems worth it for AirPods especially when it comes to battery replacements. I asked for an estimate to repair it which was quoted at around $800 or $900. Brought it to the Apple Store the next and they basically said sorry, it's not covered (which I understood). Had AppleCare I believe but it was only for mechanical defects. Wow! I had an old MacBook Pro that was damaged in a car accident during a college work trip back in 2015. So, two years is probably not a bad idea and I don't have to worry about paying for yet another monthly subscription. But, even then, I'd still probably keep it for a while longer until at least the iPhone 15. In my case, I have paid upfront and monthly.Yeah, my only concern is if they drop the notch in the iPhone 14 and want to upgrade early. I also used AppleCare after putting my AirPods Pro through the washer (MagSafe and both pods).

Haven't had to use it for my phone, but my kid tried using it unsuccessfully (cracked screen - dropped the phone like 40 times before he cracked the screen) but I guess staff felt sorry for him and put it through for free due to a "manufacturing defect." 30 minutes though to get the job done, impressed. Doing it monthly does cost more in the end, but you can cancel at any time, which is handy if you're going to upgrade.ĪppleCare has come in handy for me, with a MacBook that I have. I think it depends on how long you plan on keeping the phone.
