If I have apple care, does it cost money to replace my iPhone 5?

If it is accidental such as dropping it or water damage I believe it does. However if it is a technical defect from the company it should be completely free, just need to make an appointment with the Genius Bar, they may try to fix it for you though rather than giving you a new one. I use to have a iPhone 3GS and got like 7 of them free through apple care.

If you have apple care, it only extends the manufacturer's warranty and tech support to 2 years.
If you bought apple care plus, then you also get one replacement of the unit for $50 if it suffers physical damage.

  • Replace screen iPhone 5s under apple care? I recently just cracked my phone, and I'm under warranty with apple care and I've read that I have to pay $79.99 to replace my screen when I can go to the mall and get it replaced for $60. Is it true that I gotta pay $79.99? Cause if it's true then I wasted $100 on that stupid warranty
  • If I use my Apple Care to get a new iPhone can I repurchase Apple Care again? I figure that because they will usually replace your troubled phone with a refurbished one you should be able to, but if anyone could weigh in on their knowledge or experiences I would appreciate it.
