For that price, I guess it is worth it.

Though I owned an iPhone since 2008 and never had Apple Care(not available here). I only broke an iPhone once(iPhone 4). My gf broke her iPhone(my old one that I gave to her) last year when we were trekking.

Just get a good case and if you are careful, that is enough. But like I said, $11 a month, if it was me, I would get it.

No buy a tempered glass screen protector and a good case. I use a spigen tough armor case. Drop my iPhone all the damn time and it still looks like new.

Having a case on this phone is literally cucking yourself. The back material feels so good to hold and touch if you cover it up why are u even buying this phone.

Solid case and screen protector = phone is safe af

Apple care is very good for device insurance. It really is up to you bro and how careful you are. Are you buying the phone outright or financing?

You should wait. Even if you don't get the 12 the 11 will drop in price.

LOL how long will you keep that for vs how much phone is worth?

I know you're a tradie though so might be a good idea.

That's why grandma's apple pie rocks and yours sucks.

No, just buy a good case. Nowadays you don’t need some bulky ass brick of a case to protect your phone. Its 2020, people have engineered slim cases.


Paying $10/ month is absolutely retarded, specially considering what a hassle it is to get help from apple.


Im on my 4th iphone (5,6+,8+, now 11) and never had problems with them.
-Some people say good things come to those who wait, truth is, good things come to those who work..... who work later.....who work harder...... who are willing to go further than anyone else to get them. If you're waiting for good things to come to you, you'll be waiting for a pretty long time.

-I'd rather live life saying "I failed" than "I could have"
