AppleCare+ gets price bumps for new iPads and Macs

AppleCare+ is Apple’s extended warranty and device protection service. It offers additional hardware coverage, technical support, and repairs for accidental damage.

Today, as spotted by Bloomberg, Apple increased AppleCare+ prices for Macs and iPads by 50 cents per month and $5 per year.

In practice, that makes the new prices as follows:

New Macs

New iPads

It is worth noting that the new prices affect only new sign-ups for Macs and iPads. Current customers will keep paying the old prices, at least for now.

AppleCare One, the multi-device protection plan Apple launched last year, doesn’t appear to be affected by the changes.
