Why I Will Never Buy Apple Care+...

I talk about why I'll never buy Apple Care+ and why I don't think its worth it. However, there are people who benefit of buying AppleCare plus. I talk about the regular limited warranty of Apple Care, the next step up of Apple Care+, and in addition, the most expensive option, Apple Care+ with Theft and Loss.

Bro I bought the 14 pro max. Put it in a case. Ended up breaking the back glass within 2 weeks. Thank god I didn’t listen to others that say the same things you just did. 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. Must people really don’t have good luck with phone or buy old outdated phones out of fear of breaking an expensive one. Just my opinion and experience. Regardless I love you channel and content keep up the great work.

" It's just a phone " 
A THOUSAND DOLLAR PHONE !

Bent my iPad, broke my iPhone, had the battery replaced, apple care saved me an arm and a leg. It also just made replacement super easy cause they give out a new device 9 times out of 10. Then you can resell it later on.

"It is just a phone and nothing really appreciate that.

Bro I subbed as soon as you said “Thank you for todays sponsor, who is still no one.”

Funniest thing I’ve heard all day

When you need a laptop screen replacement, you’ll definitely regret not having insurance.

[peterparker]

Unless insurance is mandated by law, most insurance is sold as a scare tactic. Especially insurance for products. Like you said depending on the insurance company they can find so many ways not to honor their policy.

I'm a guy who skates a lot to work. A couple of times i've fallen and my phone cracked. I used apple care plus for like 2x already and it has been great.

[DieselDucy]

My Apple care paid for itself when I fell and broke the screen. Even after the screen repair and cost of the AppleCare it paid for itself and I was 40$ a head. The fact that I am a runner and am at higher risk of higher speed accidents so of me it is worth it.

Reconsidering my stance on insurance since switching to being caseless. This video helped me decide. So here’s some of the money I will save cuz of you 😊

[gregorymasters]

But the real question we should be asking is shouldn’t a premium priced product like apple should give a premium after sales services without an additional cost.

[kristenmoon]

I have applecare+theft for my new iPhone 14 pro max. Reason I have it is really only because I don’t use cases nor screen protectors, lol. So for me, I’m already willingly higher risk to damage so it’s worth the small cost.

The biggest detractor for not getting it though, imo, is that realistically you just won’t use it.

I agree, I was an apple care person, but its just wasting your money if you actually take care of your things. you just gained a subscriber!!

I was a big “NO Apple Care” advocate but now I always get it.

[jonrutherford]

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.

[djswoll]

I tend to agree but did luckily have apple care on my iPhone that I cracked at the gym and I got a hassle free replacement for $29. I won’t get for any of my MacBooks or IPads but the iPhone I feel is it worth it because we carry it everywhere.

Loved the style of presentation. Thanks for something fresh and creating your own formula for it - as opposed to being schooled into copycat by algorithms

[mikeward]

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.

[sirguroz]

You forgot that with apple care + I can replace battery for less. Now I have to pay way more to replace my iphone 13 battery cuz it is really draining fast. It is around 80% of original capacity.

[jaquanism]

i was anti apple care until my 14pro max slipped on tile i was at work it was raining and i was pulling out my umbrella while in a case and shattered the camera and back it would of been 500+ to repair with apple care it was 30 for the “deductible” and 14$ a month more than paid for itself and i have owned a iphone since the 5s w/o applecare but the monthly plan sold me
