I have never used Apple Care on a phone but I did add it to my Watch just in case I smack my wrist into a brick wall as I walk by (lol). But I’m curious about the iPhone X because it’s all glass and while I never drop phones this thing has a lot that can go wrong. My question is this: I will be upgrading every year so a 2 year plan is excessive. If I upgrade next year, will the Apple Care plan carry over to my new iPhone or does it only carry over if I get a replacement X? Their wording is confusing and I’d rather not do refunds if possible as carrying over is easier.
