A quick addendum to the all-new AppleCare One plan that debuted this week: it is compatible with Apple’s iPhone Upgrade Program in the United States.
iPhone Upgrade Program members receive AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss coverage as part of their monthly payment, but they can switch to AppleCare One if they prefer. It might be possible to save a bit of money by doing so.
Dan Moren revealed this news in a Six Colors post today:
Apple spokesperson Anna Mitchell told me that iPhone Upgrade Program subscribers can contact Apple Support and unbundle their coverage from the iPhone financing, then upgrade to AppleCare One.
