Apparently, everyone has been buzzing about the infamous Apple polishing cloth. In the in-depth story of The New York Times Regarding the supplement, an anonymous Apple official said Apple was “not surprised” by the massive demand.
The buffing cloth is not currently available in retail stores. However, it’s available to buy from the Apple Store online for $19, but beware: You’re looking at a dismal delivery estimate of 10 to 12 weeks. This means that you won’t be able to use it to clean your Apple gadgets until early 2022. Aww!
Apple official Tell The The New York Times That the company was “not surprised” by people’s interest in the product, stating that it is “highly effective” and has a “custom light gray colour.” Despite a slew of powerful new products announced at Apple’s recent event — including new AirPods, two new chipsets, and a new cut-out MacBook — it’s the polished fabric that grabbed everyone’s attention, including ours.
We managed to get our hands on the elusive buffing cloth and give it a proper review. But, if you don’t want to wait until 2022 to get the cloth, or if you (understandably) don’t want to spend $20 on a cleaning cloth, we’ve found some good alternatives.
