- dijit 7y agoThree? Isn't it 2? (which overlaps with the mandatory 1yr warranty period)
- kgermino 7y agoI think it varies by country. In the US it’s 2 years on top of the 1 year included warranty, so 3 total. You mention a mandatory 1 year so I assume you’re non-US and I don’t know what it would be for you.

- ihuman 7y agoIt's 3 years for me (US), but it might be worded differently if you get a mandatory 1 year. https://www.apple.com/support/products/mac/ https://www.apple.com/support/products/mac/
- mikepurvis 7y agoThe maximum warranty period is 3 years, though obviously there are lots of ways to still hand yourself an expensive repair (spill soda on the keyboard, that kind of thing). Now, to be fair, I was a first-gen MacBook owner, and suffered from the issue with the magnetic latch cracking the topcase plastic and the plastic itself getting stained. I'm pretty sure I had that topcase replaced at least four or five times over the course of the computer's life, several of them out of the Apple Care period. That was a while ago, but at least back then, Apple were good about taking care of people once they'd come around to acknowledging a flaw.
