I've also used the insurance I get from AT&T, which I get when I pay for my phones on installments. The process was very straightforward. I used this on an S7 when the battery started to swell. Note that there's a limit to how many claims you can file in a certain period, but I don't recall the details.

Hello, I have T-Mobile as my carrier. I do get the insurance they offer because it lets me upgrade once a year. I have had to make a few claims for my son when he dropped his phone and shattered the screen. It went very well. I paid a deductible and they sent me a phone to replace the one he broke.
