Multinational tech giant Apple is known to make its products the most desirable ones available, with a range of high-performing applications. Be it any product, the iPhone makers have achieved instant success. Because of its innovation and style, Apple products are expensive and have also gained rapid success so far.

But before Apple can launch any new product, people across the world are eager to know about its features and price. This time too, a product of Apple is making headlines, attracting major attention on social media.

The tech giant has launched a ‘polishing cloth’ to clean its devices. To everyone’s surprise, the cloth is priced at Rs 1,900 in India. Moreover, Apple is also giving its customers the option to pay for the cloth in monthly installments of Rs 224.

According to the company, the ‘polishing cloth’ is made of nonabrasive materials and can clean any Apple display. Additionally, the micro fibre cloth also has an Apple stamp printed on it.

Furthermore, Apple has listed out its ‘safety and compatibility’ with a range of products where the cloth is well-suited with a number of Apple products, including iPads, iPhones and MacBooks along with Watches and iPod models.

Since the release of this product, people are shocked and unable to comprehend how the particular cloth is more special than other such similar cloth. Soon after its launch, social media users reacted to it and posted their views on the same. There were few who were honestly surprised while others responded to it in a humorous manner.
