Samsung Mocks Apples $19 Polishing Cloth By Giving Them Away For Free

Apple’s $19 polishing cloth was the butt of countless jokes last month, and looking to keep the mockery going, Samsung recently gave away similar cloths for free. Healthy competition is one of the things that keeps the tech world moving at such a rapid pace. If Apple or Samsung does something that catches the world by storm, that urges their competitors to try and one-up them (and vice versa). It’s a process that repeats itself over and over again, and it’s why we have the gadgets that we do today.

Along with this serious competition, some brands also like to poke a bit of fun at their peers — with Samsung being a prime example. The Korea-based tech giant has relentlessly mocked Apple over the years for some of its more outlandish decisions. Samsung’s made fun of the iPhone’s notch, Apple’s removal of the 3.5mm headphone jack, and its decision to stop shipping iPhones with chargers. Some of these jokes haven’t aged well as Samsung’s since copied some of these tactics itself, but it certainly keeps the tech world lighthearted.

For its latest cheeky promotion, Samsung recently gave away free polishing cloths to some of its fans in Germany — an obvious dig at the $19 polishing cloth Apple’s now selling. As reported by GalaxyClub, Samsung Germany recently offered free polishing cloths to people who requested them via the Samsung Members app. The promotion came and went once Samsung gave away all of the 1000 cloths that were available, but there are still plenty of folks talking about it online

Why Apple’s Polishing Cloth Has Gotten So Much Buzz

Alongside AirPods 3 and its new MacBook Pros announced last month, Apple quietly updated its online store with its ‘Polishing Cloth.’ Almost immediately, the thing was endlessly dunked on. And for good reason! Apple’s charging $19 for the cloth, has a full list of products it’s ‘compatible’ with, and describes it in the most Apple way possible: “Made with soft, nonabrasive material, the Polishing Cloth cleans any Apple display, including nano-texture glass, safely and effectively.”

While none of this really matters too much, it will be interesting to see if Samsung ends up selling its own polishing cloth later this year or in 2022. It certainly wouldn’t be the first time Samsung copied Apple after making fun of the company. More importantly, it could be an easy money-maker for Samsung. Despite all the jokes and mocking, Apple’s polishing cloth is still back-ordered until January 25. It’s only a matter of time before Samsung, OnePlus, and others follow suit and ignite the Great Polishing Cloth Wars of 2022.
