iFixit was curious to know what was inside the Apple cloth that costs up to $ 19, so it cut the product apart.
iFixit is famous for disassembling electronic devices to examine components as well as assess the difficulty of repairing digital devices. This time, the product they chose is Polishing Cloth, a screen cleaning cloth sold by Apple from October 18 with a MacBook Pro 2021 laptop and AirPods 3 headphones.

Experts have cut the fabric and found it to be simply joined by two layers, similar to the lining inside the Smart Cover of the iPad. However, when viewed under the microscope, the fabric texture is more complex than the screen cleaning cloths with microfiber materials on the market. Specifically, the fabric is made up of microscopic fibers that are intricately but uniformly woven together.
After cutting the cloth, iFixit humorously rates the repairability of the product as 0/10, with 10 points being the easiest to fix.
Polishing Cloth only has the sole task of cleaning the screen, but it costs more than 19 USD. The expensive price makes the product attract attention, and even Elon Musk "kiss" Apple about the fabric.
However, the demand to buy this accessory is still high and Apple has to delay the delivery time to early 2022. The product is packed in a large box, the outside is printed with the call name in 8 languages.is "Polishing Towel".
