AppleCare One Subscription Could Soon Launch in EU Markets

The AppleCare One trademark was today registered with the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO), suggesting Apple's subscription for customers to cover multiple devices with a single plan could soon be expanding outside the United States.

Apple AppleCare One Feature
Apple launched AppleCare One in the U.S. in July 2025. The plan starts at $19.99 per month and covers up to three products, with additional devices available for $5.99 per month each. It includes all the same benefits as AppleCare+, such as unlimited accident repairs, priority support, and battery coverage.

One of the plan's more notable perks is its flexibility: Subscribers can move devices in and out of coverage at any time, and products up to four years old can be added to the plan as long as they're in good condition. That's a significant expansion over the usual 60-day window to purchase AppleCare+. When a covered device is traded in through Apple, it's automatically swapped out for the new one.

AppleCare One also brought theft and loss protection to the iPad and Apple Watch for the first time. Previously, coverage was limited to the iPhone.

Apple says pricing is flat regardless of which products are enrolled, and a customer covering an iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch could save up to $11 per month compared to buying separate AppleCare+ plans for each device, according to the company's own math. Whether the same savings will apply in other countries remains to be seen.

On its own, the EUIPO filing isn't confirmation of a launch date for EU markets, but trademark registrations of the sort have typically preceded expanded rollouts of Apple services. The EUIPO says the trademark application has been accepted and has now been assigned to an examiner. Watch this space.

iPhone Duo: Skipping AppleCare+ Could Be $1,499 Mistake

Apple today listed its estimated repair fees for the iPhone Duo without AppleCare+ coverage, with the maximum fee in the U.S. for "other damage" set at $1,499. If you only damage certain parts of the iPhone Duo, the fees are more manageable. For example, the repair fee for damaged back glass is set at $199.

In his latest Power On newsletter, Gurman said a delay of around five months would be the "absolute best-case scenario," with European users potentially facing an even longer wait while Apple negotiates its compliance with the bloc's digital rules.

Obviously like with any other insurance on average you'll be losing money, but for my 17 Pro 1 TB I went with it (including theft/loss protection). My 2021 14" MacBook Pro also has AppleCare+.

For a device that's almost critical in day-to-day use and one that I carry without a case, it just gives peace of mind knowing that if I ever drop it and the screen cracks, or it gets stolen (including during travel) I can get an express replacement almost anywhere in the world (at least where I travel to) for an acceptable fee, meaning the next day I'm good again.

I never had to make a claim and never got anything stolen from me or any screen cracked so I could probably just burn the money instead and get the same result, but I'm just paying for the convenience.

If I can soon get a combo plan in the EU for a similar price to what I'm paying now and can add another device for no additional cost AND get theft and loss protection on the Mac as well, that'd be pretty cool.

the endless need for growth is driving Apple to selling insurance

no risk of that diverting their focus on creating truly great products, no sir whatsoever
Yeah, because AppleCare is such a brand new product/idea … 🙄

Consumer protection laws are better in the EU so less neeed for extra warranty and such. Also my Apple products are generally very reliable hardware-wise.
Do they include theft replacement? If not, this option includes that in addition to the warranty service.
