AppleCare is the AppleCare Protection Plan.
The AppleCare Protection Plan full-service plan or AppleCare+ full-service plan provides expert telephone technical support and additional hardware warranty services from Apple.
Because Apple makes the hardware, the operating system, and many of the applications, Apple products are truly integrated systems. Only AppleCare products offer you one-stop repair service and technical support from Apple experts, so you can solve most problems with a single phone call.
China's consumer protection law includes a "three packs" provision that gives consumers a two-year warranty on the quality of major components from the date of purchase of the iPad and Mac, and a one-year warranty on the quality of the entire iPhone and iPod touch from the date of purchase. In Zhejiang Province, the Consumer Rights and Interests Protection Law gives consumers a 3-year warranty on desktop computers from the date of purchase.
In layman's terms, this means that if a user doesn't purchase AppleCare+, your phone will only be covered by the official warranty for 1 year, and when AppleCare+ is purchased, the warranty on the phone will be extended to 2 years. In addition, if you purchase AppleCare+, if your phone malfunctions, you will also get a certain amount of discount on the maintenance price.
AppleCare+ is essentially a kind of accident insurance for cell phones, but it's not the same as what we think of as insurance, and can actually be interpreted as a VIP service for cell phone accidents. Of course, the cost of this VIP is also based on your phone model, for example, the AppleCare+ for the most expensive iPhone X is currently priced at $1,688.
Prices for the most common broken screen failures in terms of repairs. It's safe to say that as cell phone screens get bigger and bigger, they're prone to shattering if you're not careful, and replacing the screen isn't covered by the warranty, so users will have to pay out of pocket for a replacement, regardless of whether or not the phone is under warranty. Take the latest iPhone X and iPhone 8 Plus as an example, you can see that if you buy AppleCare+, once the broken screen accident wants to go to the official replacement screen, at this time you just need to spend 188 yuan to complete the screen replacement, while users who did not buy AppleCare+ need to pay 2258 and 1366 yuan.
