you know the difference between applecare, which is just a warranty, and applecare plus, which is closer to an insurance). So if my iPhone is covered by applecare in Spain, but it breaks during a trip to France, since the iPhone is also sold in France, I'm entitled for a repair (as far as I didn't break the phone myself. I could however buy applecare (plus) for the iphone activated in Spain.įinally, applecare bought in country A can be used in country B as far as the product or service is available in both countries. I could NOT buy applecare for the one activated in Poland, because Applecare for iPhones is not offered there. I bought two iPhones in Poland, one of them activated in Poland, the second one in Spain. Had no issue with warranty nor extending applecare.

My ipad pro 10.5 256gb was certified refurbished, sold to me in Poland by an unauthorized reseller, originally intended for the German market. It was activated in Spain and we had no issue buying applecare in Spain. My mother has an iPad pro 10.5 512gb that originally intended for United Arab Emirates distribution, but was sold to me (new, sealed) by a Spanish reseller. If you can, activate the product in the country you're going to use it. They extended Applecare at half price for me in exchange. Happened to me with a Macbook pro intended for UK distribution that was sold to me by a non-official reseller in Poland. There's a few scenarios for which Applecare will start running even if the item has not been opened.

I have quite a lot of experience buying Apple products in country A, and using them/activating them/using the warranty in country B.įirst of all, check the serial number for applecare coverage before buying the product. Some people here, with their best intention, are giving you very educated but slightly inaccurate information regarding warranty, and applecare, etc. Other than the white box, there's no practical difference with a new product. Apple replaces battery and outer shell on their refurbished products. Go for the refurbished certified product, only if it's Apple Certified Refurbished (meaning it wasn't refurbished by any third party).

The only reason I buy new is if I need a specific configuration now, it is not in stock as a refurb, and I can’t wait. The refurbs have not been less reliable, and in my anecdotal case, the refurbs might have been more reliable!

She then bought another one of the same config, and that one is a keeper.Īlso, I have brought Macs in for defect warranty service, and guess what…almost all of those I bought new.

She returned it for a full refund, which was no hassle because it was an Apple refurb. Yet you get 15% off and still get a full 1-year same as new Apple warranty.Ī friend of mine bought a refurbished M1 Air. Many Apple refurbs have barely been used and have no defects, someone just changed their mind and returned it. Apple Refurbs have saved me hundreds of dollars over that period of time. Going back at least 15 years, including a Mac Pro tower, Airport base stations, my Apple Pencil, and MacBook Pros.
