Is AppleCare+ worth it for high-priced Apple models such as iPhones and Mac devices? Find out here whether the extended protection is worthwhile.

According to a report from www.techbook.de, Apple offers AppleCare+ insurance for its devices that covers repair costs and services in the event of damage. Monthly costs vary depending on the device and insurance can be purchased up to 60 days after purchase. But is AppleCare+ actually worth it?

AppleCare+ provides additional protection against accidental damage for 24 to 36 months from the date of purchase. The costs vary depending on the device and can be paid both monthly and as a one-off payment for a period of 2 or 3 years.

Without AppleCare+, a broken display on an iPhone 15 would result in repair costs of at least 400 euros. The cost of the AppleCare+ package could therefore prove to be worthwhile in many cases. AppleCare+ offers extended protection for high-priced Apple models such as the iPhone or various Mac devices where the purchase costs are high. In the event of theft or loss, the slightly higher monthly tariffs are worth it, as you can receive a new device within a short time after paying a deductible.

However, additional protection via AppleCare+ for “smaller” Apple devices such as the iPad or Apple TV depends on personal preferences. The economic consequences of loss or accidental damage are limited with these devices. However, environmental considerations speak in favor of extended protection, as repairs are more climate-friendly than constantly buying new devices.

Overall, AppleCare+ is worth considering, especially for owners of high-priced Apple devices. The additional costs could prove to be worthwhile in the event of damage and at the same time protect the environment.
