Do you prefer AppleCare+ to insurance from your cell service carrier? I have AT&T and pay $15 a month for their Advantage Protection plan, and then it’s $150 to replace the phone if I have a breakage. It seems like AppleCare+ would be cheaper overall and a better deal, but I’m not sure.

I just hate dealing with any carrier insurance programs. Apple is far less of a headache if something does happen!

Thanks! I’d never had an iPhone until my current phone that I got in December 2021 so I wasn’t sure how AppleCare worked. I saw some price breakdowns online but I wanted to ask a real customer because I know that if I asked Apple, or AT&T, both would be more likely to tell me the positives of their plans and gloss over the negatives.

Apple even has an apple support app you can install and chat with their team at any time, and they can kick off a replacement from there. It's super nice.
