Apple's 145 yuan "sky-high rag" was snatched up! Comments lit up

Recently, Apple's polishing cloth priced at 145 yuan was restocked on the shelves again, but just a day after it was on the shelves, the product was sold out.

The reporter learned from Apple's official website that "this polished cloth is soft in texture and can safely and effectively clean various Apple displays, including Nano-texture nano textured glass panels", the main ingredients are nylon and polyurethane. It went public in October last year and quickly sold out on the first day of sale, and then the shipping date was postponed to January this year.

At that time, after the polished cloth was put on the shelves, some netizens asked: "What is the difference between this and ordinary glasses cloth", netizens replied "expensive 144", and said "Pinduoduoduo a few dollars a lot".

However, some netizens pointed out that this polishing cloth was not originally used to wipe the screen, but for Apple's Pro Display XDR display worth nearly 50,000 yuan, compared to the price of the display, the price of the polishing cloth is not expensive at all. After disassembling the polishing cloth, the well-known foreign dismantling website iFixit found that it was made of two pieces of cloth, so it was equivalent to only 72.5 yuan per piece.

Previously, Apple responded that the company was not surprised by the demand for this $19 accessory, which is "very useful" at work. In fact, there are currently 24 kinds of accessories browsed by category on Apple's official website, including tripods, protective cases and various woven straps.

After Apple's "sky-high rag" was launched, many netizens complained, and Tesla CEO Elon Musk even shelled Apple on social platforms, saying that polishing cloth was an IQ tax.

For example, on the Bilibili website, some netizens made a video to connect the polishing cloth with the iPhone and iPad, so that the mobile phone displayed the animation "not your polishing cloth".

Some netizens commented, "Bought a thousand pieces to prepare to be knitted for curtains" and "just used polishing cloth to wipe the table after eating tonight."

The reporter browsed and found that after Apple put on the shelves of polishing cloth, the current major e-commerce platforms have appeared in the same polishing cloth with a price ranging from 9.9 to dozens of yuan, taking Taobao as an example, the highest sales volume of 16.8 yuan polishing cloth in the Shenzhen Qihang digital franchise store has been 6,000+ people to receive goods.

On Apple's official website, the polishing cloth is displayed in stock in many stores, but it can be ordered for delivery.
