What Is Microsoft Surface Warranty?
Microsoft launched a series of touchscreen PCs and interactive whiteboards called Surface. A new device from this series has a one-year limited hardware warranty and 90 days of technical support. This is a standard warranty and protects only hardware malfunctions. It will not cover accidental damage.
In case you want to include accidental damage coverage and prolong your device’s protection, you may buy an extension to your standard warranty—Microsoft Complete Protection plan— within 45 days of your purchase. This additional coverage also comes with prolonged technical support for preinstalled software.
