    Others will probably start thinking about this soon as well. Since my warranty was to expire tomorrow, a couple weeks ago I extended the warranty on my X220. Lenovo's price is $120 to upgrade from 1yr to 3yr. I got it done through Provantage for $100. Just put my machine type and serial in the notes while checking out. Warranty extension was reflected in the Lenovo site 12 days after ordering. All the warranties seem to be 20% cheaper compared to Lenovo.

    You can get the part number of the warranty upgrade you want from here:

    nice, but i can not extend my warranty in my country, I Am from Indonesia and the service centre in here is very not recommended.
