I know you can transfer your Apple Care + plan to a new owner if you sell your old phones, but can you transfer your Apple Care + plan to your new phone???
Nope. Plan is tied to the device which is why you can change the owner by not the device itself. Should help you get a couple more bucks for resale though to purchase the new plan.
I'll probably go squaretrade since they are running a special for 65 bucks and their coverage include accidental damage that apple care doesn't.
Apple Care + does cover accidentally coverage. It has since the 4S. It will cover up to 2 instances with a $49 deductible.
Oh ok cool. Must have been when they made it AppleCare+. Good to know.
