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

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
