I want to know what exactly is covered in the AppleCare for Macbook as I am planning to buy a new MB Air and I feel like AppleCare is just too expensive. What exactly do I get in the 3 year extended warranty? Does it cover accidental damage? Theft of device etc?
AppleCare+ is not available in India, only AppleCare. It is the (+) that adds the accidental damage protection, regular AppleCare is just an extended warranty. Personally, I am not a fan of extended warranties since over multiple devices you'll generally pay more for the coverage than you'd spend on repairs. But I did purchase AppleCare+ for mine and my family's Macs, because...kids.
Thanks a lot! This is exactly what I was looking for! I am basically buying this for my mother who is mostly going to use it for conference calls and presentations! No kids are ever going to touch the Macbook. So what should I do? Should I avoid the Apple Care? For some reason the employee was hellbent on making me buy an AppleCare Plan, a USB C adapter and Microsoft Office Subscription which bumped up the overall price by 28600 INR ( Around $390) because of which I had to lower down to the MB Air otherwise I was gonna buy the MB Pro 8th Gen 13 inch.
I have had an iPad Air since 2014 and i never had any problems with that device and I believe the 3 year warranty is just going to expire worthless as Apple products tends to last really ling before failing.
What should I do?
Hi Thanks for the reply but I see this is AppleCare+
What the Apple store is giving me is just the normal AppleCare and not the Plus Care. I'm buying it in India BTW.
How does AppleCare works for Macbook Air 2020?
