Try Squaretrade...
Seconding squaretrade. It is $5 a month with a $75 deductible. It covers pretty much everything except theft or loss. There are several reasons squaretrade is better than carrier contracted insurance like Assurion, such as the fact that you don't have to deal with a refurbished piece of ****. They also give you the option of having the device repaired at a local repair shop (of your choice, I might add) or if deemed unrepairable, they cut you a check for the purchase price of the phone. Not the current going price of the phone, mind you, but the exact list price of the device when you signed your 2-year contract with them.
Squaretrade isn't just a better option than carrier insurance because to me it is the only option for phone insurance, period.

I've done Geek Squad Insurance for a while now. It's not the cheapest out there for sure, but I can tell you from personal experience, you get exactly what you pay for. I have lost a phone to broken water bucket incident. I brought it in, they gave me a loaner for 2 days, and had a new Note 3 ready to go. The first go round was covered under the 10$ a month I pay. Check out their site for more information, and make sure to read the brochure:

My phone/laptop/etc. is covered by my contents insurance both in- and outdoors, maybe your insurance can offfer that too. It covers, burglary, loss, breakage (even if it happened by me).

Have anyone signed up insurance through their cell phone provider or outside of their cell phone provider (i.e. aruisance, squaretrade and so on). What do you think of it, and is it worth it? I am about to sign up for Squaretrade for ADH (accidental damage from handling). I have butterfingers so I don't trust myself with high end smartphones without insurance!
Any recommendation / suggestions will be awesome. Thank you!
Honestly if your going to keep your phone stock then yes. If your going to mod your phone then no (unless u can put it back to factory stock)

I have Squaretrade and have had it on many previous devices. Their customer service is the best in the industry. And they aren't particular about stock ROMs or anything like that...at least not my experience. I sent them my water damaged Fuze that had EnergyROM on it and within 2 days I had money sent to my Paypal.

I haven't had phone insurance for about 5 years since I was with US cellular and had a Razor. It was only like $50 deductible and $2 a month, so not bad. My first phone on ATT was the first iphone and you couldn't get insurance thorough ATT, then I got a 3G iphone (No insurance again), then finally got a Captivate but it was something nuts like a $200 deductible on top of like $5-$6 a month. Imagine your car insurance was almost %50 of what your car costs? So like $15,000 deductible on a 30k car lol, I'd imagine that insurance company would be booming for business.
The only thing is I'm not sure what the deductible is on the Atrix but if it was like $50 with a $5 a month or something it could be ok. I just know the Captivate was totally not worth it.
It's real simple. The atrix cost 500 bucks without a contract right? If your phone breaks you will spend that to replace it. If you have Asurion it is 125 bucks... Not sure what they would do about a custom Rom since your claim would be on a non functional phone. Lots of money and resources just to void a claim on a phone that probably cost 200 or less wholesale.
Thank you for all your help. I have decided to get SquareTrade warranty. I liked their perks. I'm feeling much more relieved now, haha.
The big disadvantage with Squaretrade is the policy is cancelled after two claims and Squaretrade does not cover lost or stolen phones.
sounds like it may be better to go with your service provider insurance. Then agsin i never really broke or lost a phone

**knock on wood**
Just like the title says.....What should we do?
AT&T offers the insurance for $6.99 / month and has a $199 deductible. Only two claims per 12 month period are allowed but it does cover loss or theft.
SquareTrade wants $69.99 for one year and $124.99 for two years. Their deductible is $99 and does not cover loss or theft. Once you make your claim, the insurance contract is completed (you claim...you must get another policy).
Neither of these options look too appealing to me. What is everyone out there going to do once we get our shiny new devices?

I'm looking at Ensquared. $99 for two years, $75 deductible. Theft / loss / damage. Sponsor of and good reports from Android Forums. Apparently pretty good service and good turnaround times on claims. You get I think three claims, but your deductible goes up to $100 for second and third claim.
You have 1-year warranty from AT&T for free. The insurance is only needed for anything that's not covered by warranty.

Yes..but the 1 year warranty won't cover it if you drop it. Something to consider when the device is nearly twice the size of my previous device.

Your thread title mentioned warranty. That's what I want to point out. You need warranty if there is manufacturing defacts. You need insurance if something bad happens to it.
I've never dropped any of my phones. And I always prefer living on the edge and never purchase any additional warranty/insurance anything even as expensive as my new cars.
I'm going insurance / no case. I figure this thing is big enough already I don't want a case on it. Plus I ordered the ProClip for it for the car which I don't think fits with most cases.
I baby all my phones and use the where's my Droid app.
If it's stolen I will personally track it down with a gun.

Ok this is going to sound sort of crummy, but let's say that I get a big scratch on the screen; I mean one where even a blind person would constantly notice.
If I have the ATT $7 insurance, I suppose I could, out of 'shock at the scratch',
accidentally drop it on concrete ( preferably from a height). I would then be able to replace it for $200?
My main concern is how easy it would be to make the claim. Insurance companies can be unpleasant (for reasons such as those depicted above)
I'm thinking ATT would be easiest. I don't know.
How do each of these Insurance places handle subsidised phones? For example...I am paying 300 bucks for it through AT&T...if I have a claim...will they pay for a new out of contract phone?
I think most third party ones either send you a new identical phone, a refurbed identical, or some rare instances a better one (like if you submit a claim in 22 months when the Note 2 is out you might get a Note 2).
You send them your broken phone.
I think ensquared will even put a hold on your credit card for the cost of the replacement phone and send you your new phone immediately before they get your old one back.

Almost correct. BB allows you to purchase their coverage for up to 30 days after you purchase the phone. After 30 days; you cannot get the coverage from them.
Of the options i like BB's coverage the best. 9.99/month and zero deductible. They dont hassle you and you have a replacement in 2-3 days. ATT's deductable on smartphones is $200.
Can you purchase insurance from Best Buy even if you purchase from AT&T?

No, to get their protection you have to buy the phone from them.
The one exception to this is the iphone. For some reason BB allows iphone users to buy their protection no matter where the iphone was purchased. (perhaps because the iphone shatters so easily)

Thanks for chiming in Dave. I work for BBYM and Im really in love with our protection. Broke my iphone 4 three times and never paid a dime or waited over 4 days to get a refurb, which by the way are so nice that I sold as LNIB on craigslist. I could have said brand new but even on craigslist I try to be honest as possible (who knows who the crazies are).
Another option for the BBY protection is to purchase outright. For non iphone smartphones it is $169 for the two years, again with no deductible and no limit to the claims. If you, say, get rid of your phone at any point before the two years is up, they can return the protection at a prorated amount. I do this every time because Ill forget to cancel the $9.99 and I get a new phone so frequently, that would start racking up haha

The downside to their insurance is once you make a claim, you will have to purchase another 2 year plan to be covered. But I've ready squaretrade policy is very good and most customer are very happy with how they deal with claims.
Ignore the above statement. It's completely wrong. I just called and you can make multiple claims on the policy.

To be honest, I'm still investigating which one as well.
I've got some info here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1769729
And it's making me think about the Best Buy plan too. But so far, I'm leaning ensquared.
Edit: To clarify, what pulls me to Ensquared more is the lower price, coverage for lost/stolen and I believe they allow 3 claims through a 2 year period.

Well, Ensquare's first claim is $75, but each subsequent claim is $100.
From their website: $75 deductible fee per claim
. All 2nd and 3rd claims carry a $25 additional deductible for admin charges. -Source: http://www.ensquared.com/catalog/phone-insurance/2-year-phone-insurance-smartphone
Also, you can get SquareTrade coverage for $99 on Amazon. So basically, the difference is just the first claim, the $24 difference.
EDIT: Opps, there's some more info about Ensquare's deductible:
A non-refundable thirty-five dollar ($35) deductible maintenance fee will be collected for each authorized claim for the Covered Product under one hundred and fifty dollars ($150). A non-refundable fifty dollar ($50) deductible maintenance fee will be collected for each authorized claim for the Covered Product valued between one hundred and fifty dollars ($150) and three hundred dollars ($300). A non-refundable seventy-five dollar ($75) deductible maintenance fee will be collected for each authorized claim for the Covered Product over three hundred dollars ($300) or any type of Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs). An additional twenty-five dollars ($25) maintenance fee will be charged to the Member for the second claim and third claim .
-Source: http://www.ensquared.com/2_Year_Phone_Insurance_Terms.htm
I can't find anything from SquareTrade that's something like that as well. As far as I know from what the sales rep told me, all claims have a $99 deductible.
I would have said ripoff had I not used it twice now. First time I didn't even have it until after I needed it. Just so happened my email invite came right after my gnex jumped off my motorcycle. A few scrapes, but they bothered me. Second time I went for a swim trying to launch my boat. Not a bad deal when you consider a $400-800 device price tag.

Asurion is with verizon right? I ordered mine from walmart online. I assume I can still get Asurion and then if something happens, go to a verizon store and leave with a new phone.

Asurion was pretty good, the deductible was pretty bad tho when the phone was like $400 and they wanted $200 lol
for assurian, If you already have the phone, unless you get an invite by email, I think you'll have to go to the store and they have to 'look at it'. Before I got my insurance online, I took it in and they saw it was already damaged and said, no. Also, no, you won't leave the store with a new phone, they will overnight a phone to you and you get a shipping package to send the old one back. Also, may get a refurb if you use your insurance

I think am going to add a rider to my home insurance policy. Only costs about 30 bucks a year and will cover all of our computer devices. There is a 50 dollar deductible and I get a check to replace the device rather than the refurb I would get with asurion. I read this tip here on another thread and checked with my agent about what coverage they offered. Much cheaper than the other cell coverage plans, covers all of our devices, lower deductible, and no refurbished phones as replacement. Unless I am missing something it seems like a no brainer.

No deductible with Best Buy. Also check out squaretrade.
You have to purchase from best buy to get their insurance, but they either repair your phone or replace with new phone. ATT gives a refurb after charging deductible.
You really have to read the fine print with insurance. Not sure about the Best Buy plan, but I know that Squaretrade does NOT cover lost/stolen phones where the AT&T plan does. But then again, AT&T is a $199 deductible where squaretrade is $99. Also, it doesn't hurt to check with you current insurance provider...I know progressive has started offering mobile phone insurance as well, but at the end of the day, it cost about the same as AT&T.
I sell cell phones for Target and our insurance plan is better than AT&T's at the same price with a smaller deductible. But I've heard nothing but great things about Best Buy's insurance plan. If you bought it at Best Buy trust me get their plan over AT&T's insurance. There's no limit to the amount of claims you can make whereas at&t caps you at 2-3 depending on the frequency. Also yes the carriers are the only ones that cover lost or stolen phones but if I'm not mistaken you have to present a police report to show that you made a reasonable effort to locate your phone. And check with Best Buy on free battery replacements. At Target we offer 2 free battery replacements during the 2 years you have the phone in case your battery just gets progressively worse. In the case of a phone like the LGOG that translates to swapping out the phone since you can't just change the battery.
If you're already going to get insurance then anything other than the carrier is better.

This phone costs $550.00 to buy outright, if you went without insurance on it for the two year length of a contract you couldn't even buy half a phone.
But it is still a ridiculous amount of money to pay for an insurance policy on an item that costs only $550. You are paying half the cost of the device for insurance. I also get extended warranty, accidental loss and damage warranty from my Visa card when I purchase things on it.
My phone's been stolen along with my entire laptop bag in a smash & grab out of my car in the past too. All of the items stolen were covered under my car insurance. So I just cannot understand paying that much for a warranty, its a tremendous scam and HUGE profit for the retailer.

it may be a scam...then again, most insurance policies are scams designed to benefit the provider. however, most folks that i know who have purchased a warranty have made claims on it.
how long does visa provide warranty services? a full 90 days? woohooo! and most policies only cover up to $500, which is less than the cost of our phone.
comparing the value two vastly different types of insurance coverage based solely on the monthly cost is just plain silly on your part. insurance costs are "supposedly" based on the likelihood of claims being made against a policy and the payout associated. chances are, that you're much more likely to make a claim for a lost or damaged phone than you are for house or car. why? cause for house or car the cops gotta come out and the insurance adjuster and papers and photos taken and if you're found to be a liar, then you get charged with insurance fraud (which is a bad thing). but the likelihood that you'll drop your phone on the concrete, sit on it, have it stolen, leave it someplace or have the battery crap out on you are pretty high and no police reports or investigations are required. AND since our phones have non-replaceable batteries, i'd bet that a fair number of folks who get insurance will also have a new phone in 18-20mths.

Lots of discount codes you can find online as well.
I have my phone and tablet covered for up to $500 reimbursement and it cost me $52 for the year. FYI, if you have a tablet its cheaper to insure that and then add your phone for an additional $10!

Thanks! Im going to look into them. Can I insure at anytime or is it within a certain amount of days after buying the phone?

Of course! You can do it at anytime. You just have to provide IMEI number.

Nexus 4 is my insurance.
After discovering the insurance plan for $7/mo had a $150 deductible I decided to forget insurance and purchase a Nexus 4 for $300 if the unthinkable happened.

Ever since I had a second phone stolen from me and I had to either eat the cost of a full priced phone or get a second line on the account, I've made sure to always have the best protection.

Correction. I just got a plan through Square Trade and dropped my TMo ins. TMo ins for this phone for full coverage is 11.99/mo with $130 deductable. Square Trade covers more and is $99 for two years with $99 deductable. Its $125 on their site but I got the $99 price from amazon.
