    Can anyone give me adivce on whether to get insurance with say gadget insurance.ie or apple+, I'm wondering about getting anything out of those insurance policies, I'm sure they have all sorts of conditions. I assume that claiming from apple would be more straight forward if something happened, I know apple+ doesn't include theft but I'd be more concerned with an accident or something like that.

    Well Apple Care+ gives you additional hardware & accidental damage coverage of 2 years. So if you manage to smash your phone, it will cost you €69 on top of the €99 to get it replaced.

    If you think there is a chance of you losing or having your phone stolen go for insurance.

    Personally I would go Apple Care+ if you plan on keeping the same phone for 2 years. That way you're covered if anything goes wrong with it even when it's your fault. Just be careful when it comes to losing it or having it stolen ;)
