If it was under two years, then it was covered by the warranty. [1]

- blowski 11y agoI was referring to Apple's "one year limited warranty" [1] which suggests you are covered only for one year, and must buy AppleCare to get any free maintenance after that period. With the 2 year guarantee, after 6 months you need to establish that the defect existed on the product at the time of purchase. So if the battery stops working after 18 months, you need to establish that it was a faulty battery when you bought it, instead of you damaging the battery through misuse. This even extends beyond 2 years, for the period of time that you would expect the item to work given the price of the product and the manufacturer's claims, but obviously it gets harder to establish the older the product.
