Extended Warranty for Mobiles

We currently live in a day and age where mobile phones have become our best friends. From the moment we wake up, we completely rely on our smartphones to navigate through the day. Whether we have to check our work email, interact with a colleague, or even execute as mundane a task as making plans for lunch, we depend on our mobile devices. As such, we cannot even imagine what we would do, if we do not have access to our phones even for a single day. However, any damage to -- or malfunctioning of -- our mobile phones can result in us having to do without our handy devices for an extended period of time. Smartphone brands like Samsung, Nokia and Xiaomi among others offer warranties, to ensure that any damage to our phones resulting from manufacturing defects are taken care of quickly, and customers can avail their services within the warranty period. To perform a mobile warranty check, you have to enter your smartphone’s serial number (IMEI number) into the brand’s warranty tracker on their official website, and check the mobile’s warranty period.

It is also recommended that you purchase extended warranty for mobiles, which ensures that your mobile phone is protected from any sudden and unforeseen damages. Brands like Samsung and Nokia provide Samsung mobile extended warranty and Nokia extended warranty plans, while you can also opt for third-party services that offer extended warranties.

Check What Does Mobile Extended Warranty Cover

 
Extended warranties offered by mobile brands cover various kinds of hardware issues that might have been caused due to manufacturing defects. Some of the issues that are usually covered by extended warranties include:

• Smartphone battery that fails due to manufacturing defect
• Repairing any issues related to the home button, liquid damage, or issues pertaining to an accessory such as the power adapter due to manufacturing defects

However, extended warranties do not cover the following:

• Any physical damage on the smartphone, including damage to paintwork, or any scratches or dents made on the body
• Any loss or damage of electronic data, as a result of a virus or any other software-based malfunction
• Extended warranties do not cover any issues stemming from repairs done by unauthorized personnel
• Accident, loss or damage to the mobile phone arising from willful act or neglect of the owner
