Apple polishing cloth

    I was in an apple store in San Francisco last week and grabbed a polishing cloth ($19).

    I was highly sceptical of it, but was interested in trying it out.

    Long story short, it’s a decent cleaning cloth, extremely luxurious feel off it & it does it’s job extremely well. Cleans effortlessly and leaves the screen really well cleaned and totally smudge free without any moisture or cleaning products.

    However I used it on my phone glass protector and if anything it exposed a number of micro scratches which I knew were there but have been highlighted by the fact any finger oils etc that were filling them have been removed. And small air bubbles under the protector.

    Screen feels very much cleaner

    Made me wonder why apple don’t offer their own range of screen protectors.

    It’s absolutely overpriced & not for everyone but for those that value their screens and maybe have an oled tv (my reason), well worth it.

    I'd imagine its because Apple make a lot more money replacing your screen when you scratch it or crack it than they would by selling you a screen protector. It would also lessen the claims that their latest glass technology is the best if they felt the need to sell you a screen protector. I used to always have one on my iPhones but with my 12 pro max I took mine off about 9 months ago and never replaced it, despite numerous bangs and scrapes its still in fairly decent nick with no real scratches at all. I have had the cloth though and it is pretty neat.

    In fact, do any mobile manufacturers sell screen protectors?

    This is just the thing I was looking for, especially for my iPad Pro. I have a screen protector on my iPhone 13 Pro Max but the screen of the iPad Pro is naked! Can this cloth be used on an LG CX 55' as well?


    Thanks,
