Apple Polishing Cloth review

When someone talks about Apple many thoughts cross our minds: its excellent iPhones, ecosystem, walled garden, unrivaled Macs, overpriced, versatile iPads, and more. However, beyond the company's popular devices lies an often neglected product, one that very few people will talk about out loud, let alone get anywhere near. Shielded by a $19 price tag, this item is rarely noticed or purchased by anyone with a sane mind.
I'm, of course, talking about the Apple Polishing Cloth. I'm a bit of a misfit here at XDA, disgracefully publishing stories about a fruit company that, unlike my colleagues, contribute nothing toward world peace. However, this changes today. I'm going to detail my experience with the Apple Polishing Cloth, sparing you with the need of going through that on your own.
About this review: I bought an Apple Polishing Cloth last year for individual use. Apple had no input in this article whatsoever.
The Polishing Cloth is compatible with all recent Apple displays, including MacBooks, iPhones, iPads, and other devices. You can own one for just $19 through the retailers linked below.
Pros
- Has an Apple logo
- It's a foldable
- Polishes all your screens at no additional cost
Cons
- Costs a whopping $19
- Doesn't receive software updates
- Plagues your soul
It took me several months to come to terms with the fact that I used the Apple Polishing Cloth. I even excluded it from the list of every product I used last year. There's a certain shame that manifests inside your heart when you complete the purchase, and it only grows bigger as the weeks pass. Confessing this publicly is one of the most courageous steps I've ever taken. And it really doesn't help when many other publications have expressed how the product is not worth it.
It all started when I grew tired of keeping my MacBook Air's display clean. In fact, that's one of the reasons I don't want a future of touchscreen MacBooks. These screens are almost impossible to clean, and the more you attempt to rub the smudges off, the worse they get. It's like trying to put out a fire by pouring gasoline on it.
At the time, I had heard legends about the magical Polishing Cloth, which allegedly restores Apple displays to their original, out-of-the-box appearance. They seemed too good to be true, but I had to see for myself. Even if the chances of it working were below 1%, I needed to take the gamble to finally get some sleep on increasingly-restless nights
When I finally got to my local Apple Store, I couldn't even look the employee in the eye. I just gazed down at the floor in absolute humiliation and softly muttered "Apple Polishing Cloth, please?" to the sales clerk. He did not respond. Instead, he quietly walked away to some inaccessible section of the store and grabbed a unit from a seemingly abandoned storage box. I paid, carried the bag, and swiftly found my way back home, making it one of my most memorable walks of shame.
To answer the question you might be having right now, following some vigorous testing and research, I can confirm that the Polishing Cloth, indeed, works with older, unlisted Apple devices.
I advise you not to throw its packaging away. It has the Apple logo and the words "Polishing Cloth" printed on it, signifying that this box is indeed for the Apple Polishing Cloth. If you decide to store it in a different box, you won't be able to indicate where your Polishing Cloth is, complicating your life in the process.
Keeping my purchase a secret wasn't simple. Not only do I have a human flatmate, but my dogs would also give me the look every time I took it out for a display cleaning session. That's not to mention that I had no easy answer when people questioned my unbelievably shiny MacBook screen. "What's your secret?" they would ask me. "How do you maintain its irresistible glow?"
Word got out eventually, and I could sense the judgmental stares whenever pedestrians passed by. They could tell; it was written all over my face, and consequently, I was socially rejected. People cut their ties with me, and I had to live a life of solitude going forward.
Do I regret my purchase? Of course not. This is no ordinary cloth. When you touch it, it quite literally touches you back, providing you with a sense of validation. And as it rids your screens of dust and smudges, you can almost see these displays smiling back at you, particularly when they're off. This is when you realize that the Apple Polishing Cloth isn't a mere item, it's a state of mind.
Once you make peace with it, you learn how to make the most out of it. I'll admit that I've had trouble finding fellow Polishing Cloth owners to build a community with. However, with the pleasant cloth keeping me company and polishing my Apples, I've realized that I can actually survive on my own. (Although, if you are a Polishing Cloth connoisseur, leave a comment below.)
Some might call me an Apple Fanboy for that, but I literally haven't been able to find a cloth as effective as this one. I will even go to the extent of saying that the Polishing Cloth is hands-down Apple's most innovative product released to date.

(Not sure but I think JLo's were).
WTF did I just read ? 🥴
as this is non software up-gradable, they should offer subscription plan for this.
The best thing about this product is it supports all devices
The post is just wow, this is the first ever on dd (long post) that i have read from top to bottom.
English - amazing
Sarcasm - next level
Interesting - absolutely
Karma - given
They forgot to mention that the polishing cloth is made of state of the art next generation fiber that lets you fold the cloth effortlessly and without any crease. So you don't need to iron it later. 😛
Voting up just for the post , suspense , thrill , sarcasm , shame , emotions , action , dialogues , story telling , etc & Definitely Not for the Glorified Duster claiming make it Feel Realistic Price Tag .
Goss bro! Simply superb. A kind of top-notch review, with all drama, emotions and expressions. Loved reading it totally.
Don't eat polished apples .
Worst😢 abrasives, powders (minerals like talc/ quartz) or chemicals are used on such rice, daal (pulses).
You know, they can sell Apple Air in an empty glass jar for $50 and people may still buy it. AirPods, AirTags, AirPlay. Why not sell Apple branded Air itself?
to think that Apple Air Jar would be a shabby (low priced) USD 50 only,
when even 6-7 years back, similar listing as this https://ebay.co.uk/itm/164207545484 was almost the same price as this (current) eBay listing!😉
[Difference between unbranded air and Apple Air: 100x premium].
Very long useless post

Yes, some people need "fashion designer name here" panties and trunks for their "billions" worth of genitals as they presume and are happy to believe so; their bodies almost becoming a signboard of some foreign name in that process... So, nothing wrong here with that fruity rag...
