I wouldn't say Apple is any better than anyone else - aging iPhone batteries and butterfly keyboards both had a class action lawsuit settlement, it wasn't out of good PR that these got addressed. I suppose you are right that everyone will know about them, though, given that those were from memory.

I suppose you are right that everyone will know about them, though, given that those were from memory. That's the point. If 5% of PSUs failed inside a Dell computer just outside of warranty, no one would care except those affected. If the same thing happened on a Mac, you'd get a media storm and a class-action lawsuit and Apple will eventually settle by giving out repairs - even if the failure happened outside of warranty. I did get a free battery replacement for my iPhone 6S.
