Uh-Oh! HTC's chart shows how its protection plan covers more than the competition

Back in March, HTC introduced its Uh-Oh protection plan which will replace your damaged HTC One (M8) or HTC One M9 during the first year of its warranty. The plan covers water damage, damage from drops and will even give you a new phone if you change carriers. HTC offers this plan for free and produced a chart that compares Uh-Oh with protection plans offered by the competition. The chart shows HTC's Uh-Oh compared with Samsung Protection Plus Mobile Elite, Apple Care Plus, LG G4 Screen Replacement Incentive and the DROID Turbo screen Assurance.

The HTC Uh-Oh plan covers just about anything that can happen to your HTC One (M8) or HTC One M9. And if you don't use the free replacement plan during that first year, you can take $100 off the price of your next HTC One handset.

"At HTC, we recognize that your phone is an important part of your life. You use it to stay connected and to capture those moments that you want to remember and share. Because it is always with you, sometimes bad things happen to good phones. That is why we launched UH OH™ Protection, which was inspired by life’s unexpected uh-oh moments. UH OH Protection is a free service that comes with the HTC One M9 (and newly purchased HTC One M8) devices. If at any time during the first 12 months you own your HTC One M9, you crack the screen, suffer water damage or decide to switch carriers, we will replace it for free; and if you make it a year without an UH OH moment, we’ll give you $100 towards the purchase of your next HTC One."-Jason Mackenzie, president, HTC Americas
