It covers mechanical craziness too. So if after the first year you still have it and it goes off the deep end, they'll replace it. If not you're on your own.I've always chosen insurance as I'm not the type to break my devices. My issue would be that they would end up lost or stolen. At my work (Esurance-Allstate company) we provide cell phone insurance that includes loss and theft. That's important to me. So I just skip over Applecare honestly.

I have insurance on my plan that's 8.00 a month and covers Apple care. After a year I get a free new phone. Works great
