iPhone Insurance

Need protection against drops and spills for your iPhone AND iPad? SquareTrade insurance plans add accidental damage to your device warranty. Right now, The iPad Guide is offering a free SquareTrade warranty for both devices to the next winner of the May iPad Accessory-A-Day Giveway.

Entry in the contest requires no obligation whatsoever. It's as simple as clicking a button to enter and your email address will never be given, traded or sold to a third party. SquareTrade is the nation's largest independent warranty provider. Not only does a SquareTrade warranty extend basic protection, unlike AppleCare it covers accidental damage such as drops and spills.

Only two days until we randomly select winners in the SquareTrade iPhone Warranty Contest! Two entrants will receive certificates for free Squaretrade 2-year iPhone warranties good for any model of iPhone (8GB, 16GB, or 32GB). Another ten (10) winners will receive $10 off Squaretrade warranty coupon codes.

Did you give or, better yet, have the pleasure of receiving an Apple iPhone this holiday season? If so, you're likely already wondering how to keep your favorite, new, constantly handled device safe from harm. Unfortunately, the reality of the situation is that statistics indicate that 80% of all iPhone failures are the result of accidents and not factory related defects or other unexplained failures with the devices themselves (kudos to Apple). Since the standard iPhone warranty and extended AppleCare coverage do NOT cover accidents, many customers are left having to pay unsubsidized prices as high as $699 to replace broken iPhones.

As the first in a series of iPhoneFAQ post-holiday contests and giveaways, we're launching the Squaretrade iPhone Warranty Contest today. Squaretrade is the leading third party insurance provider for the Apple iPhone and many other digital devices. Squaretrade offers 2-year iPhone insurance warranties as an alternative to AppleCare coverage for the iPhone. Unlike AppleCare, Squaretrade warranties cover accidents such as spills (and other water damage), drops, and other breakages. Squaretrade warranty coverage has received 5-star and 4.5 star ratings from customers on NexTag.com and Epinions.com, respectively.

The contests begins today (Decemeber 27th) and ends on

Did you know that 80% of all iPhone failures are due to accidents? The problem is that most mobile carriers will not cover a smartphone like the Apple iPhone under typical insurance contracts.

SquareTrade, a licensed insurance provider, offers the only iPhone protection that fully covers accidents from handling. The company has been in business since 1999 and has sold over one million iPhone warranties.

According to SquareTrade, "drops, spills, water damage, battery failures or any other failures from normal use or accidental damage" are all covered under their plans. This is the key difference between SquareTrade's insurance and other coverage options such as AppleCare.

Don't Drop That iPhone

Your iPhone comes with 90 days of technical support and a one year warranty from Apple, and many users have extended this coverage to two years with AppleCare. Unfortunately, if your iPhone is dropped and damaged or accidentally gets wet, Apple will not cover the repair.
