FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Why do electronics depreciate quickly?
Technology devices often lose value fast due to rapid model turnover and newer replacements becoming available.
Does device insurance always use ACV?
Not always — some device protection plans offer new-for-old replacement without depreciation; check your specific plan.
Should I compare this to repair cost instead?
Yes, if repair is cheaper than the net claim payout, it may be the better option — see Device Repair vs Replacement guidance from your provider.
Does accidental damage typically raise the deductible?
Some plans do charge higher deductibles for accidental vs. mechanical damage — check your specific policy.
