Google has officially introduced Pixel Care Plus, replacing its previous Preferred Care warranty program. Many users are asking what Pixel Care Plus covers and how it differs from the older plan. The focus of this updated protection plan is on offering free screen and battery repairs, along with more affordable service fees for accidental damage. For Pixel owners, this means greater value and peace of mind, especially for those who want to extend the life of their devices without paying steep repair costs.
Pixel Care Plus goes beyond basic coverage by including free screen and battery replacements. If your Pixel’s battery drops below 80% capacity or the front screen cracks, you can have it replaced at no cost. This is a major upgrade from the previous plan, where users had to pay $29 for screen repairs. However, internal foldable screens like those on the Pixel 10 Pro Fold still require a deductible of $99 for repairs. The plan also covers accidental damage, with fees ranging from $49 to $129 depending on the model, making it more affordable for most users compared to earlier options.
The pricing for Pixel Care Plus remains similar to the old program, starting at $8 per month or $159 for a two-year plan on standard Pixel models. For premium devices like the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, the cost rises to $18 per month or $339 for two years. Users can also opt for an add-on that covers loss and theft protection. This add-on increases the monthly fee slightly but provides peace of mind, with deductibles ranging from $99 to $149 depending on the device.
Pixel Care Plus is designed to give users better long-term value and reduce unexpected repair costs. Free screen and battery replacements mean fewer worries about common issues like cracked displays or battery wear. Lower service fees for accidental damage also help users save money compared to out-of-pocket repairs. For heavy phone users or those with premium devices, this plan ensures that costly repairs won’t disrupt daily use or stretch budgets.
