Worth knowing: The 1-year warranty covers manufacturing defects — not accidental damage (cracked screens, liquid) or normal battery wear. AppleCare+ (now available as a monthly subscription) extends coverage, adds accidental-damage repairs for a per-incident fee, and replaces the battery at no charge once its health drops to 80% or below. Buy AppleCare+ within 60 days of your iPhone.
