I'm gonna wait for the reviews and unboxing videos to come out before deciding. Hopefuly they do a thorough comparison and benhcmark test with other cloths.
Anyone know if this is compatible with Intel MacBook Pro models?

$20 for a known good quality cleaning cloth isn't the story for me, to me it's that supply chain disruptions have now reached the point we can't find enough shipping containers to fill with $20 rags...
A friggin' $19 POLISHING CLOTH that I can get for nothing literally anywhere else (my eye doctor literally gives polishing cloths away).
I'm having to agree with the trolls on this one--you're just dumb if you bought this.

OK, Tim, it's time to talk about this latest product. And I have a whole list ready for you.
Is there an unboxing video of this product somewhere?
I really want to know what version of iRAG OS this runs on.
Does Otterbox make a case for this?
Why is it not available in (Product) Red ?
Tim, why is this only available in white? That's not very woke of you guys!
Tim - WHY IS THIS NOT AVAILABLE IN PRIDE COLORS? OH MAH GERD!
I will only buy it if it has no-notch Retina display AND is made from the finest Corinthian leather.
Is this rag repairable by the consumer or do I violate the warranty by repairing it myself?
Now wait just a minute! This doesn't work with my 30-pin charger??!!
Wait, you boxed this without including a charger? WTF?
Are you guys going to scan this cloth for questionable content?
In addition to cleaning the screen, has it been tested to absorb an afternoon's worth of OnlyFans viewing and withstand a thorough bleaching?
Can Daisy the Apple Recycling Robot recycle this rag? Is it made with any recycled content? Is the microfiber fair trade and ethically sourced?
I gotta tell ya, Tim, that white fiber is a lot brighter than your design team. Just sayin'.
Tim, my phone reception dies when I polish my screen with this rag. Wait, what?? I'm holding it wrong?!

I think they have to offer AppleCare with this product. I wonder, does warranty cover shrinkage due to accidental drying in high heat?
I can see it now: $19 for the cloth, with option of adding $30 AppleCare that extends the warranty for a total of 3 years. Totally worth it in my book. Oh…and replacement cost due to accidental damage will be $16. The way I calculate it — it’s a win-win situation buying that AppleCare.
LOL
Also, I think this will be the first time that iFixit will need to bring in outside expertise. They are not experts on textile manufacturing and breakdown.…
After a lot of thought, I decided to wait until the "Max" version comes out early next year with a……..notch.
OMG, I didn’t see it had an Apple label on it! Now I will have to order one. My Apple devices get a lot of use & can accumulate grime quickly. This looks like a better solution than taking alcohol swabs to clean them.
They brought in an old watchmaker for the first Apple Watch, not impossible
If you pay me $5 (Venmo only) I can ‘notch’ it for you. It’ll be done with great expertise.

How can THIS topic have 14 pages of comments?
Doesn't anyone work anymore?
Well, there, I just went and added to it ..
Downtime while in the toilet?
Well all the naysayers changed my opinion and I bought one.
Just kidding, I couldn’t care less what other people care about how I spend my money. Do you folks hang out at Starbucks or convenience stores to heckle people in your spare time?
Must be hard going through life with all that negativity.

Nah...I find it a very good screen cleaning cloth. It is quite stiff as opposed to other cloths I have had and definitely does the job on my nano screen and no damage!!
That's what I've been saying. Also the fact some of the naysayers here were probably drinking the overpriced coffee while mocking people who bought an overpriced cloth.
