Waiting for the Supreme Off-White collab version to drop at twice the price
 
All I’m saying yet again is that I can get polishing cloths for FREE from my eye doctor. I don’t need this new Magic Cloth.

Sorry everyone. I liquidated my 401k and bought 50,000 of these. But I'll let you have up to three at $39.95 each. This is a limited time offer.
 
Holding out for a carrying case and cloth cleaner cleaning kit so that I don’t ruin my $19 Apple cleaning cloth. I hope they release them before introducing the next-gen cleaning cloth. But if they lower the price of the current one to $10, I may buy it.

What interesting new features can you see Apple adding to this incredible new product? I wouldn’t mind a built-in U1 chip so that I can use Find My to keep track of it. But I could always add an AirTag to it.

I also wouldn’t mind an Apple Cleaning Cloth max for wiping down my car. It should be interesting to see where Apple goes with this exiting new category of product.
Brilliant! A magsafe holder for the back of the iPhone accessibility! $99 in 5 colors
 
No problem for me, still waiting the next version: space grey or midnight blue for the 2022 ?
 
Does this mean if anyone cleans their macbook lcd with anything other than this polishing cloth and the screen was to get damaged, Apple CS will deny free warranty repair costs because it was not clean with the apple polishing cloth?
 
People will literally scramble to buy anything that Apple produces. Do they genuinely believe it’s that much better than any other cloth or is it for the social status points they think it gives them?
But what if it's MAGICAL? You just swipe up and your iDevice is magically clean? Just don't swipe up wrong.
 
I always wander into the Apple Store and see what people are buying. You can see people picking up their devices and computers and they also usually buy a bunch of accessories at the same time while they are getting their devices set up by a "genius". So you see people picking up a leather case, airpods, some cables/chargers, have a screen protector installed at the same time. I can imagine that these same customers might be offered "you should get this Microfibre cloth, it's extra soft to avoid scratching your screen" says the genius, and they will say "sure, why not?". After all, they are dropping a grand or two already.

Anything associated with Apple is usually in high demand.
True.

Recently, as I look at $1000 monitor stands for $5000 monitors that you have to pay an extra $200 even if you just want to VESA mount, and $20 cleaning sheets, it just feels like Apple has finally “jumped the shark.” They are not even pretending it’s not all about the cash-grab.

Maybe when Right to Repair legislation is brought in Apple might make an officially branded repair tool kit so mac owners can open up their devices to repair them. Apple could even do a marketing campaign 'Problems with your mac product? Never fear, Apple has just the gear for you, it's very own professional tool kit, tough and robust enough to handle the most difficult of repair jobs. 35 stylized individual tools all encased in a luxcurious leather case to protect them from bumps and knocks. Yours for the amazing price of $300 (*comes with 2 Apple logo stickers) ?
