AppleCare+ for MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display costs $17.99 a month on the 16-inch model, the most Apple charges to cover any Mac. The 14-inch model comes second at $14.99 a month, yet both sizes carry the same $99 screen repair fee as every other MacBook Pro.

Repair Fees Match Every MacBook Pro
The plan covers unlimited accidents, and the tandem OLED touch display carries no extra fee under AppleCare+. The $99 fee covers damage to the display and lid, or to the bottom case and keyboard, as long as nothing else on the Mac is damaged. Any other damage moves the repair to the $299 fee.

| Other accidental damage, including spills | $299 | Set by Apple after inspection |
| Battery below 80 percent capacity, 14-inch | No charge | $229 |
| Battery below 80 percent capacity, 16-inch | No charge | $249 |

Cancel Anytime With a Refund

Four Ways to Cover Your MacBook Pro
Every MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display comes with Apple’s one-year limited warranty, which covers hardware defects but not accidents. Apple sells three paid plans on top of it, while AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss is limited to iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch.
| Coverage | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| One-year limited warranty | Included | Repairs for hardware defects for one year, with no accident cover |
| AppleCare+ | $14.99 a month (14-inch) or $17.99 a month (16-inch) | Unlimited accident repairs at $99 or $299, plus battery service |
| AppleCare One Individual | From $19.99 a month for three products, then $5.99 a month each | AppleCare+ benefits for your own devices, plus surge protection |
| AppleCare One Family | $49.99 a month | AppleCare+ benefits for every eligible device of up to six people, plus surge protection |
Adding a MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display to AppleCare One Individual as a fourth product saves you $9 a month on the 14-inch model and $12 a month on the 16-inch. If the Mac is one of your first three products, it shares the $19.99 base price with two other devices.
AppleCare One Family covers every eligible device for up to six people at $49.99 a month, with the same service fees as AppleCare+. You can buy AppleCare+ with the Mac or add it through the Settings app on your Mac for 60 days after you buy it.
