Australia has a 'common sense' approach to it. Basically legislation says means Apple has to make sure that their machines must last for a reasonable period of time, considering their price, market power etc. They explicitly mention that would you expect a $400 watch to last longer than a $40 watch.

Apple devices are more expensive than their counterparts, and you would expect them to be made of a high quality and last longer. That's why in Australia Apple provides minimum of two years warranty on all their devices.
