However, the fragility of the mobile phone screen is a headache. A careless drop may break the screen, which not only affects the experience, but also may cause economic losses. Mobile phone broken screen insurance came into being, which provided a strong guarantee for mobile phone screens.
In the United States, for example, many insurance companies and mobile phone manufacturers have launched their own unique broken screen insurance services. Apple's AppleCare+ service provides more comprehensive protection for iPhone users. During the service period, if the screen or glass back plate of the mobile phone is damaged, users can enjoy official maintenance only by paying a service fee of $188. Google's Pixel mobile phone also has a similar guarantee service. Users can purchase broken screen insurance when purchasing a mobile phone. Once the screen is broken, they can mail the mobile phone to a designated maintenance center for free repair or replacement.
In Europe, the British mobile phone broken screen insurance market is also relatively mature. Local insurance companies cooperate with telecom operators to provide users with a convenient purchase channel for broken screen insurance. When purchasing a mobile phone package, users can choose to attach a broken screen insurance service. Once the screen of the mobile phone is damaged, the user can get the corresponding compensation service just by contacting the operator, including replacing the screen for free or getting a certain amount of compensation.
These foreign mobile phone broken screen insurance services have brought many conveniences to consumers. First of all, it saves maintenance costs for users. Replacing the screen of a mobile phone is often expensive, especially for some high-end models, the screen maintenance cost may be as high as hundreds or even thousands of dollars.

Secondly, broken screen insurance provides users with fast maintenance services. Many broken screen insurance services promise to complete the maintenance and return the mobile phone within a certain period of time. For example, some insurance companies in the United States stipulate that the maintenance time generally does not exceed two weeks, and some of them can even be completed within one week. This enables users to quickly resume normal use after the mobile phone screen is damaged, reducing the adverse impact on life and work.
Purchasing screen protection coverage requires careful evaluation of policy terms and claim procedures. Users should read the insurance clauses carefully to understand the insurance coverage, exemption clauses, claims processing and other details. For example, some broken screen insurance may have strict restrictions on the causes of damage to mobile phones, and only cover screen damage caused by non-human factors such as accidental drop and collision, but not for damage caused by users' intentional or gross negligence.
In addition, users need to pay attention to the reputation and reputation of insurance companies. Choosing an insurance company with good reputation and high quality of claims service can ensure that the corresponding services and compensation can be obtained smoothly when claims are needed. We can evaluate the strength and reputation of insurance companies by looking at other users' comments, consulting professionals or referring to relevant industry ratings.
