How much did you pay for yours? And is there a streamlined contact for the Apple warranty update or just regular customer support?

Oh man. We're getting cheaper! Been waiting for this. Will it be even better for Black Friday? Looks like brand new is cheaper than it's been. Just slightly. $1,149 instead of $1,399. Think it normally drops to $1,199 for brand new.

Just ordered one. Looks like they have the holiday return policy. So buying now and can see if there are better deals over Black Friday.

I'm new to Apple Macs. I've had an iPhone forever. Never get AppleCare for my phone. Is it recommended for a computer? Why? I'm not going to drop it, etc. But my last computer, Dell XPS, had given me ALL kinds of problems.

I never buy extended warranties on anything. That's where they make most of the profit. If something dies I just rebuy it or upgrade from it with all the money I've saved of never buying a warranty for 25+ years.

Personal preference about applecare.Getting the apple store to look at your computer starts at $120. Fixing parts is hundreds to thousands more. Apple care is good if you drop your laptops or like to spill things. If you think you'll go to the apple store for a repair in the next year or three then it would be worth it in my opinion. If its going to sit on a shelf and be kept near new condition then you're fine without it.

I buy open box often, and Best Buy "excellent" in my experience as of late has been more like 'fair' condition- bruised, scratched, and more than once simply DOA. Hit or miss, so as others usually suggest, check it in store if you can. There's always the return period.

I've had a nightmare with a Dell XPS under warranty recently and I'm gong back to macs. With insurance there's only one question you ever need to ask. Can I afford to replace this if there's a mechanical failure or some other big problem? Cuz the cost of parts and labour won't be far from this price tag.

I've had manufacturers defects in my 2013 and 2016 MBPs. Most of the time it was after a year and would've cost me anywhere between half to close to the cost of a new one.

Also, once 3 days after AppleCare+ ended I had screen issues. Flawless condition. I talked to the store manager who gave me a new one off the shelf with comparable specs. This isn't a common thing I'm sure but AppleCare offers excellent and speedy service.

Not for something that costs $1000...but imagine buying a Macbook Pro or Mac studio at price tags of $2000+. And one day you spill something on it and ruin the internals, or drop something heavy on it and break the screen. For these cases the Applecare is a blessing. If not you'll be spending $500 every single time.

Lol, you probably don't have kids or dogs, and if you do they are probably a lot better behaved than mine! For me warranty on products like this is a must

At Best Buy, AppleCare+ costs is $199. But on Amazon, the bundle with AC+ is only $149 extra. The total comes to $1298 + tax. So, are you saving about $43 for a brand new unit? if pp 20% didn't work
