whats the difference between onsite support and the premier support? dont really need the software support from the premier support. (normally quite crap, self diagnose might be faster)

How much is it?

PS: I use thinkpad X1. But never use premier support which come with it. (Company provide anyway).

upgrade from 1year base warranty for rm700; 3Y Accidental Damage Protection Add On RM287 so total 1k

For thinkpad series, none. That's why I wonder it is worth it for premier support.
Normal warranty also ok what..

I do buy personal laptop for kids. No matter what brand, I need to claim warranty.

Nobel winner Thaler says it's always best for consumer to opt out extra warranty.
