That’s not Australian consumer law. There is no specific timeframe. This is not the first time they have been caught out on this.


I was referring to the keyboard issue, not the error 53 issue or whatever.

For the keyboard issue, it’s a simple case of honouring ACL saying that devices should last for a reasonable period of time. Two years is the baseline automatic baseline for iOS and Mac within Apple, with discretion used past that.

I think the error 53 thing was a bit more nuanced and that was a genuine misinterpretation of the laws.


Yes, that's the point I'm making though. Their two year "baseline" is what seems to get them into so much trouble.
