I have it for my iPad Pro. I wouldn’t buy it for the cheaper iPad. If something costs less than £500 I don’t buy AppleCare or insurance that’s my rule of thumb.

Clicking like on this one . . and just wanna say that others will post the same for buying AC.

I buy AC . . as I see it as optional additional insurance. Might be a bad buy for some, but the price isn't prohibitive for me given the convenience it brings for easier issue resolution. The answer is not a one-size-fits-all thing here . ..

I believe my statement agrees. These are just choices.

Well well well, I was debating to get it or not, finally pulled the trigger... four days later the thing falls down and has now a crack in its screen after just 15 days of ownership.
It’s a small crack so far but I know for sure optimism gonna exchange it sooner or later as my OCD can’t stand to watch this. Happy I got AC!

Yep and this is why as much as I don’t want to get it for the iPP, I end up doing so because who knows if I ever drop the thing the wrong way and end up not being covered.
