What is Mechanical Protection?
Last updated Jan 30, 2025
Mechanical Protection is designed to cover your device against hardware malfunctions and electrical failures that occur naturally over time. Unlike Accident Protection, this plan does not cover accidental damage—instead, it ensures that if your phone stops working due to an internal defect, you’ll be covered.
What Does Mechanical Protection Cover?
✅ Power and Battery Issues
- Phone not turning on
- Battery draining abnormally fast
- Charging port malfunctions
✅ Screen & Display Malfunctions
- Touchscreen unresponsiveness
- Display flickering or blackouts
✅ Speaker, Microphone, and Camera Failures
- Distorted sound from speakers
- Microphone not picking up voice
- Camera hardware malfunctions
✅ Motherboard and Internal Component Failures
- Phone randomly restarting or freezing
- Connectivity failures (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc.)
This plan is perfect for users who don’t worry about drops and spills, but want protection against technical failures that happen due to wear and tear or factory defects.
Who Should Get Mechanical Protection?
- Users who keep their devices for several years and want protection from hardware failures
- People who don’t drop their phones often, but worry about power, charging, or screen malfunctions
- Those looking for affordable protection against manufacturer defects
