    Thanks for pointing it out, we've update the post with the latest premium and deductibles. But $199 seriously? What is AT&T thinking?

    Good, Apple needs to take money from Squaretrade and others like that, I used one of these services for my ipad and after a cracked screen got repaired it came back and never worked the same, would 100% go with applecare+ if I was getting the 4s, unfortunately looks like i'm jumping off the Apple ship, Nexus Prime here I come!

    Bestbuy offers a similar warranty as the applecare+. It's alittle more for a two year coverage but does not have a deductible or limit to repairs. Only downside is that there is a 2 day wait for the new phone. The offer it for iPads as well, I have done it twice for my iPad and I got a new one in store within 30 min of breaking it each time.
