It is more nuanced. It differs a bit per country [1] as it is a directive. For example, in The Netherlands after one year if you did not buy additional warranty in the second year you need to prove you used the product normally.
Also, something like a washing machine has more than 2 years warranty because you can expect such device to work longer than 2 years.
Also, you have the right for updates to keep the device working (if you bought it after April 27th 2022) [2].
The government has very good official documentation available on your rights but it is complex [3].
Yeah about 2 years, I think it was just outside their warranty by a few months. The original experience was very frustrating and really put me off apple. That trust hasn't been recovered but I'm glad I know my rights now.
