This is why I'm Afraid to get higher end electronics. They break and you literally can't fix them no matter what, even if you're an Engineer.

I've had to use applecare+ on my m1 pro max macbook two separate times. Would have had to pay nearly $3k to fix it otherwise. Kind of ridiculous.

Once was liquid damage that apparently took effect like over a year after the only incidnent I could think of where there was any sort of spill (and if it's what I was thinking of it was a small spill--like 2 oz of a mimosa). One day it just wouldn't turn on at all after working fine. For that I had to pay a copayment of like $300, but the repair would have been like $2500 without applecare. They basically sent me an entirely new laptop since they had to replace so much of the insides. I guess that one is my fault though.

The other thing was recently--one day both the keyboard and trackpad simultaneously stopped working. Never got a good explanation as to why but they repaired it for free. Glad I renewed applecare since this was another repair that would have been in the thousands of dollars according to the receipt they gave me.

AppleCare is good to have. I had some pixels die on my old intel mbp and they replaced it for free. Would’ve been $$$. Then the battery swelled up after warranty so I have an M2 now. It’s fine but I wish I’d dropped some more cash and gotten more than 16gb of ram

Gets them more shekels. This is Apple, if you don't like getting nickel and dimed then don't get an Apple. They were the OGs of this nonsense. It is why Wozniak left the company.

4 years isn't bad at all. No one really offers more than 4 years of warranty.

Anyway, you can get a top of the line 16" Macbook Pro M4 Max for about $2900 open box at BB. https://www.bestbuy.com/product/apple-macbook-pro-16-inch-laptop-apple-m4-max-chip-built-for-apple-intelligence-36gb-memory-1tb-ssd-space-black/JJGCQ8HTZG
