As you can see, this benefit is not being added to many of Amex’s low annual fee cards — at least for now.

Some of the cards on this list, such as the variety of Platinum cards named, carry hefty annual fees.

Money expert Clark Howard is a fan of cellphone protection benefits, but he’s not a fan of high annual fee credit cards for most consumers. So keep that in mind as you’re shopping around for card benefits.
