Apple

do ppl get apple care for their iphones? why/why not? 

just got a new phone and not sure if i should.

for context, i’d never gotten it for any of my previous phones. on a scale of 1 to 10 on how well i look after my devices, i’d say im a 9.

ohh they actually do: https://support.apple.com/iphone/theft-loss-claims

idk if apple care covers stealing, but imho the only insurance that's worth it is the stealing one, so in case you get randomly mogged on the street you dont even flinch and give them your phone (vs getting stabbed)

but yea idk

I prefer to pay for a repair than give free money to apple.

iPhones are kinda more sturdy nowadays, or im old and do less bad stuff to them lol

I remember throwing my iPhone 4 to the air w all my strength to test one of these doesnt break covers

wild it kinda survived 100m-300m throws lol (touching grass)

It’s relatively cheap so I do it for peace of mind to literally be able to throw my phone. 

Learned habit from camera gear. 

Just insure shit and let it rip. 

Life is better lived

never got Apple Care since iPhone 3Gs.

I never broke any iphone, im treating them nice.
After the first year of usage i usually goin caseless tho
