AppleCare+.

Plus, if happens so you’re overseas and your iPhone encounter any issues, you can just pop in to their Apple Stores for diagnostic tests and further advices on the repair processes.

If they allow, you can also get a replacement phone by paying the ‘service fee’ as like back here.

Tried exchanging faulty cables and earphones in the US, no questions asked. Just a serial number is all they needed to look up.

Don't forget they have your IMEI number in their system. If you reported lost and after the replacement, there's signal from the lost phone using other number what you think they will do? There's also a chance telco will send out signal to kill off the phone.

That's the only good thing for Mobile Swop if phone lost need to replace. Other than that Apple Care still on the upper hand.

If phone lost and you received a replacement from ST, I think with those document you can still transfer your Apple Care over to the new phone.

Have been using iPhone since iPhone3G. Even till today, applecare or applecare+ have not benefit me at all. Worse cases for me are: headphone jack non-responsive; home-button non-sensitive. All happens within 1 year warranty. As for dropping my iPhone, I can count with my 10 fingers for the past 9 years. Never crack or dent, protected by decent casings, which can get with less than $20. It boils down to individual on how you take care of your belongings.
