Can I insure my laptop?

If you have a warranty on your laptop, getting insurance for it could seem unnecessary; however, the warranty and insurance will cover slightly different things. A warranty may cover minor repairs or mechanical malfunctions, but it may not provide cover for your laptop if it’s lost, stolen, or damaged.

It can feel like your whole life is on your laptop. Whether you’re writing your best-selling novel, browsing the web or skype calling the family, your most important thoughts and most cherished moments live on your laptop. If anything were to happen to it, your home insurance is designed to help replace or repair your laptop and get you back to your screen as soon as possible.
