Not sure how much for MS Complete. But I just found out from Challenger that their Star Shield, $225 covers additional 2 years warranty (i.e. total 3 years). It covers everything same as the 1st year. What they do is that they will send the unit to MS to repair and they bear the cost. If beyond economical repair, they will replace you with a brand new unit. Sound good to me.

Any person bought from Challenger?

But does Challenger cover Accidental damage protection (e.g. from drops and spills)? MS covers 2 times Accidental damage protection where you need to pay about $50.

So if you want a replacement laptop, just drop it in the swimming pool :s13:

i5 is more than enough for standard, office usage. i7 is only good for graphics intensive applications like Photoshop, Premiere, etc.

Nope. Challenger does not cover Accidental damage protection..... MS does for the whole 2 years.

Thanks for link. In fact, I always buy only extended warranty from Best Denki. Not sure if they have same problem too.

Looks like MS is safer.... but only 1 more year for $229.

Ever since I bought the MS complete, I have been able to walk around with my sp3 with more gusto and confidence.

oh if people still interested, I've been doing a lot of coding and compiling programs on my SP3. So far no problem. Doesn't heat up like nobody's business.

I am building an android app on my machine.

Mine is the i5 256gb model :)

Actually I don't quite understand. It says in the T&Cs that deductible applies, but they did not state how much deductibles and under what conditions do they apply... Is it stated when you purchase the complete cover?
