OK, thanks for sharing.

Do I assume correctly that both extend the warranty by 1 year assuming it comes with a warranty of at least 1 year?

Is their a per item or per year maximum for either of those cards?

What is the return protection of either of those cards?

What about damage or loss during the initial 60 or 90 days?
Amex is double warranty up to an extra year. Accident/theft/loss prevention is 90 days.

There are maximums, which I don't know off the top of my head, but a quick Google will pull it up. My extended warranty protection credited me $650 for the phone.
