I have never gotten Apple Care for any of the iPads I’ve owned, and I’ve been buying them since the very first iPad in 2010. Unlike an iPhone, I have never dropped my iPad. Not once. It’s used at home mostly. On the couch. At a desk. In bed. And when I do bring it outside, it’s usually in a backpack in a case. I really don’t see the need for Apple Care. I am currently using a 2018 iPad Pro as my main content creation & media consumption device. In the 7 plus years I have used it, nothing has ever gone wrong with it.
 
I have an AppleCare+ for my M2 iPad Pro 11 and my current iPad Pro 13 M4. I did get my M2 replaced one, was totally worth it. It fell, didn't break the screen but dented the aluminum in a way that was so sharp that it would cut your finger. They agreed to replace it, because it was so sharp, it wouldn't be considered cosmetic anymore.
