    For iPhone you'll probably want to have breakdown too as the warranty lasts just 1 year. Don't know if will be possible to buy breakdown cover for a 1 year old phone.

    Ask your house insurance people. It may be covered by any "all risks outside the house" section you have.

    You can buy AppleCare from Apple anytime in the first year, its Circa £60 for an additional years warranty.

    AppleCare isn't insurance in the accepted sense, as it does not cover loss or theft, or the cost of any unauthorised calls made. Treat it as an extended warranty on'y, treating it with the same level of disrespect.
