I find that Apple Care Plus now is so expensive especially if you have a Pro phone that I personally don't buy it any more. I have my iPhone insured as part of my home insurance where it is listed as a separate item and I think it's something like $30 or $40 a year. The good thing in my opinion is that for one thing this also covers loss or theft and secondly if I keep my phone for more than 2 years I still have coverage whereas Apple Care Plus is done after 2 years. Of course you have to check with your particular insurance company what all the conditions are, e.g. if you did have a claim, would that effect your overall home insurance rate, what exactly is covered, e.g. what if you drop it and the screen breaks etc. I did loose my iPhone 6S Plus many years ago and my home insurance paid me the full purchase price at the time without fuss and I didn't even have to send in a receipt or anything, they sent me a cheque and said it was up to me what I wanted to do with it, e.g. buy a new iPhone 6S Plus or a different phone or whatever.

As we all know our iPhones are a significant investment and an inconvenience if we’re deprived of their use. What are people’s view on Apple Care+ is it worth it? There are a number of insurers designed specifically for gadgets like iPhones and there is the possibility of insurance on one’s hous contents too. Then there’s the option to simply trust to luck and save money. What are people’s thoughts?Malcolm Parfitt -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
