Q: Does apple chargers have warranty on them?

IF I buy a charger from Best Buy, will it have warranty? Or do I have to buy it from Apple? Can I get an additional warranty on it if I just buy a charger?

    Hi

     

    Apple power accessories are covered under Apple's One-Year Limited Warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, but not against accidental damage or misuse.

     

    This applies whether the product is purchased directly from Apple or from an Apple Authorised Reseller.

    What you want is not a warranty - warranty covers only manufacturing defects.

    What you want is insurance, which Apple does not offer for its products.

    See if BestBuy offers such insurance, or ask your insurance agent

    about a rider on your homeowner's/tenant's insurance. Staples does

    offer additional cost protection for some items they sell, but I do not

    know what if covers (you could check if you wish).

     

    Cost for protection against misuse and/or accidental damage may be greater

    than the replacement cost of the item.

    No, not from Apple.
