Despite representing a pretty significant upgrade over the iPhone 8 it replaces, the new 2020 iPhone SE actually costs $50 less – $399 – than the smartphone it replaces. As it turns out, Apple has also lowered the price of AppleCare+ for the phone.

Those of you interested in acquiring a two-year AppleCare+ package can now purchase the plan for only $79. That is a significant $50 reduction from the equivalent $129 plan for the iPhone 8 that was originally on offer.

That standard AppleCare+ plan extends the one-year warranty and provides coverage for two incidents of accidental damage. The service fee for a screen replacement also drops down to $29 and any other incidents will set you back $99. 

As per usual, these AppleCare+ plans need to be purchased alongside the new iPhone or within 60 days after purchase. In the case of the latter, in-store inspection or remote diagnostic is required.
