Apple Releases Polishing Cloth for $19

[dumastudetto]

We can't wait to see what our customers do with this.

Screw the inevitable hate, I'm buying this for my iPhone.

Buy an AirTag too, so you can be sure not to lose this $19 rag. Wait! Apple didn't build in a little AirTag pouch. Maybe that will be Apple Rag Pro?

 

[FHoff]

Haters? Or just people with fricken common sense to know when they're being fleeced by Apple?

Pretty sure you arent forced to buy it. So nobody is fleecing anybody.

 

[mjew]

Is AppleCare+ available for this product?

 

[Kenso]

Cloth colors are next to express your personal style. Anthracite/Black, Midnight Navy, Olive Gray, Magic Ember, etc.

Tim Cook uses these as TP in his $100M home.

 

[JustMartin]

My (non Apple using) partner thought this was satire. I just had to show her the UK store - £19!

 

[jmho]

I have an XDR and I absolutely love the cloth that came with it, it almost feels like the soft side of a piece of leather and it cleans so well it squeaks as you swipe it on the screen.

Plus it's way thicker and stiffer than the old cloths that used to come with Apple products.

I mean $20 is still kinda crazy for a cloth, but it's very nice lol

Crap. Shipping not included.

 

[TheLinkster]

Jesus, Tim!

When the inevitable complaints roll in, "Well, you're wiping wrong" won't be far behind.

Are you supposed to fold or wad the microfiber cloth?

 

[TheLinkster]

Screw the inevitable hate, I'm buying this for my iPhone.

You'd buy Apple Water Pro if they sold it, wouldn't you?

 

[beerseagulls]

I'm sure Apple can sell water bottled from bathroom faucets at Apple's headquarters. Even at $10 per 12-oz bottle, I'm sure they'll be able to sell 100,000 bottle per day.

 

[puckhead193]

I mean they did try to sell us Socks

This should be included in a 4 thousand Dollar computer

 

[PhillyGuy72]

I got my hands on the Cloth Pro Max, review soon on YouTube!

 

[ProfessionalFan]

I got my hands on the Cloth Pro Max, review soon on YouTube!

I'm gonna smash that like button

 

[Scarpad]

Is the magsafe charger included or do you need to buybthe $50 cable?

 

[Boardiesboi]

What is the size of this cloth? Better be as big as a tea towel for $19!

 

[jdclifford]

I still use my black Apple microfibre that was INCLUDED in the box

Ditto. I still have 2 of those. The good old days when Apple used to include AirPods, charger and microfiber wipe in the box. MEMORIES. Way to keep those margins up Tim!

 

[mwayne85]

Should I buy one this year or wait for Polishing Cloth 2 next year?

 

[tgwaste]

Is it April 1st?

 

[HermanMunster]

should've named it iWipe

 

[CarlJ]

Wow, people getting all bent out of shape over this - if you don't want one... maybe just don't buy it?

 

[matrix07]

But the question is, what makes this better or different than any cheaper alternative?

Peace of mind. 😀

 

[Phil77354]

No specifications, no dimensions, no details on material used.

Now I really need the iJustine review in order to properly evaluate this polishing cloth.

 

[NARadyk]

should've named it iWipe

People could mistake that name for their upcoming toilet roll though.
