New AppleCare One plan lets you protect three Apple devices—ideal for on-the-go users
Dubai: If you're juggling multiple Apple devices—an iPhone, an iPad, maybe even a Watch—Apple’s latest subscription service might be the smartest upgrade yet.
Starting with a $19.99/month (approx. Dh73) base plan, Apple has just introduced AppleCare One: a single protection plan that covers up to three Apple products, with the flexibility to add more devices for just $5.99/month each.
For UAE residents—where Apple products are both lifestyle staples and significant investments—this move offers a more streamlined and cost-effective way to insure your tech.
Whether you’re a parent managing family devices, a professional with multiple Apple gadgets, or simply someone who upgrades regularly, AppleCare One could save you hundreds of dirhams a year.
Unlimited accidental damage repairs (drops, spills, etc.)
24/7 priority support from Apple experts
Battery replacements
Theft and loss protection, now extended to iPad and Apple Watch, not just iPhones
Add older devices (up to 4 years old!) in good condition—great for expats with older models
In the UAE, where Apple users often own multiple devices and tech upgrades are frequent, this new plan cuts down the clutter and cost of having separate AppleCare+ plans. And since most UAE Apple Store purchases and trade-ins happen through Apple UAE or authorised resellers, the automatic device swap feature when upgrading is a welcome bonus.
Plus, if you’ve been missing the 60-day AppleCare+ window, AppleCare One now gives you a second chance to protect that iPhone you bought months ago.
While AppleCare One is launching in the US first, UAE shoppers can expect a rollout soon. Given how rapidly Apple services expand globally—and how strong UAE demand is—it’s only a matter of time before AppleCare One hits your iPhone settings here too.
