Apple just dropped a new polishing cloth, and unlike its refreshed Mac Mini models, it comes with a price cut, as spotted earlier by MacRumors.

Apple has released an updated version of its polishing cloth, which is now priced at $9, down from $19. The cloth is made with soft, nonabrasive material and is designed to clean any Apple display, including nano-texture, safely and effectively. According to The Verge, it is compatible with a range of Apple products, including the iPhone 5 and up.
The updated polishing cloth appears to be identical to the previous version, with Apple’s description remaining the same. The Verge notes that an archived version of the old polishing cloth on Apple’s website matches the description of the new one, suggesting that no changes have been made.
The polishing cloth was originally released in October 2021 and quickly sold out. It has since become somewhat of a meme, but 9to5Mac notes that it is genuinely a good polishing cloth for Apple gear. The original polishing cloth is still available on Amazon for $19.
