 Consumer Law. - No FM2R
Well, it's been a while, but as I recall within 6 months the seller has to prove that the fault was not existing at the time of sale and after 6 months the buyer has to prove that it was. Difficult to do unless it is a known fault with other instances.

It may have a manufacturer's guarantee but, as you say, that is only 12months in the case of an iPhone.

A phone, like anything, must be fit for purpose. Perhaps if it was supplied to you as part of an n month contract it would be reasonable to say that it should last n months.

Since in this case that is 24 months then I'd be causing noise around that.

There's no little known law as far as I know, just the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

Though there was EU directive 1999/44/EC

Not anymore though.
