What does a refurbished warranty cover?

A refurbished warranty typically covers hardware defects and malfunctions:

• Battery, screen, and logic board failures
• Speaker, camera, and microphone issues
• Connectivity problems (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cellular)

It does not cover accidental damage (drops, spills) or cosmetic wear consistent with the device's grade. For details, see what a refurbished warranty covers.

Can you extend a refurbished warranty?

Yes. If you buy from the Apple Refurbished Store, you can add AppleCare+ for the same price as a new device. Several third-party sellers also offer optional warranty extensions at checkout. You can also consider third-party insurance for broader coverage including accidental damage.
