iPhone X owners, you might want to read this!

Yes.

Good. I chose to not get AppleCare in this phone as I already pay for AT&T’s insurance. I don’t want to pay for two insurances...

If I choose to get AppleCare, can I do so after purchase? Like if I go today?

You can, I can't remember if there's a time limit or not, but whether or not there is and assuming you're within it (would be weeks/month(s) not days) you just have to bring the device with you so it can be inspected. You just won't be able to buy it online.

Great. Thank you. Are we sure AC+ covers OLED burn?

No idea, I would assume so if it's bad enough to notice it. That sounds like a great article for the iMore guys to research and present to us I suppose worst case just take a hammer to your screen and say your screen broke instead of it has burn in lol.

Lmao. Bout to have a few million people throwing their phones off of balconies in a year.

LOL don't think you'd want to do that. You risk breaking the back if you do that and then it's a lot more $$$ to get it fixed.

It's 60 days

 

[Alex Rodriguez Jr.]

Yes, you have 60 days.

Thank you guys.

 

[ItnStln]

Thank you guys.

You're welcome! I believe you can do it online as well since that's what I did a few weeks after I got my Apple Watch Series 2 Nike+.

I did mine by phone. They sent a link and 2 minutes later, AppleCare.

There might be a time limit to do it online. I'm not totally familiar with it though being with Apple only a couple years now and starting out on the iUP which just includes it no matter what. I know when I bought my iPad a couple months ago at Best Buy they told me you can buy it after the fact but the device has to be brought in. Maybe that was a best buy specific thing if you're buying Apple Care through them?

Where is it on apple's sure? Can you post a link?

Also in-store or over the phone.

Well, I will be getting rid of my iPhone X in about 10 months anyway So not big deal.

 

[Alex Rodriguez Jr.]

I keep running the math and I keep thinking AT&T’s insurance is better only because, if I don’t need it, it’s cheaper. And it covers theft.

I'd probably go with theirs too for that reason if I wasn't getting phones via the iUP. Apple Care+ is required and part of the program.

Thanks, I forgot that I already read that when I commented.
