Apple's New $19 Polishing Cloth is Sold Out Until Late November

[ProfessionalFan]

I mean the cost of the cloth is negligible so who cares really? It seems to look good and from the looks of it is higher quality than the most basic microfiber cloths you can get. So if you like it and have a use for it why not get it?

Exactly. It is $19 compared to the price of the products it will be used on, it is a drop in the bucket.

What chip does it use? How long does the battery last?

Too flat so no connectors at all. Damn it I wait for the upgrade and more color options next year 😉

Our 17-year-old daughter's birthday is 11/22. If this doesn't arrive, she will be crushed!

IRONIC, i was about to press add to cart for 2 pieces ...and it was out of stock and after 1 minute, this article shows up
Macrumors are spying on me?! how they do it?

The moment Apple decides to sell clothing on their website its game over for the rest of the fashion world.

I KNOW!!! I can't wait! I still have my moth-eaten Apple shirt from the last time they sold clothes.

Who on earth is buying these for that price!?

When did Apple stop including the black screen cleaning cloths with some of their products? I still have a few lying around but can't remember what they came with.

People who own Apple's Pro XDR display who paid an extra $1,000 for the special nano-texture surface etching and don't want to f up the superb image quality.

Easy.

There is a shortage of everything. Local contractors (spoke to several) are backordered for windows (as in home windows not PC windows) until April! So I need to get by with a messed up Window in the house for a few months.

Yeah, good point — I shouldn’t even joke about the shortage chaos in all areas.

Not sure if this is an option, but if it is a non-operable window, could you have someone install a temporary one, or would that be too much of a hassle?

It's too thick. Will wait for thinner upgrade.

People have no brains anymore. I can get cleaning cloths from my local dollar store haha

 

[Haiku_Oezu]

Did they make like… 5??

 

[mtneer]

Will there be a separate section on MacRumors for the Apple Cloth?

this fanbase has gone too far

this fanbase has gone too far

Apple now selling banana peels online. The new iPeel is sold out in one hour. News at 11 😂

We're at peak bubble when Apple can sell out of a $19 polishing cloth.

They at least could include 3 clothes in the package for this price.

 

[R3k]

Oh Apple, what are the cleaning instructions for said cloth?

 

[Starfyre]

This will pair well with my Apple-branded brick.

I have to admit, I am going to buy one for my new $5000 almost maxed out MacBook Pro with the M1 Max! Nothing else will ever touch the screen of my M1 Max MacBook Pro screen! I mean what is another $19 on top of $5000!

It's shameful Apple makes this.
Equally shameful people buy this.

Tim is a slave to shareholder growth expectations. Period.

Can you share a pic? How big is it?

Here is a photo of it next to the magic trackpad. Its gotten a little dirty over the past year that I've had it. On the botton right the Apple logo is etched into the cloth.

Proof Barnum was a man ahead of his time.

Like Tyler Durden making soap from the fat stolen from liposuction clinics and selling it back to the same people the fat was sucked out of….

 

[zombierunner]

>They'll buy anything
>No they won't
>Oh yeah? Watch this ...

a conversation between 2 people at Apple, probably.

I bought one since you only get one when the Pro Display XDR and it is much nicer than all the other microfiber cloths I have used. Including Chaptex which is already super nice (about 12 bucks each)

You get one with Nano texture glass iMac too.

 

[WiseAJ]

looks nice, I still can't see paying $19 for it.

$5 would be better, maybe $9/$10 with Apple Premium added.
