Apple's $1599 Standard Studio Display Does Not Come With a Polishing Cloth

Apple's brand new standard Studio Display does not come with a polishing cloth included in the box, unlike the Pro Display XDR which offers a cloth in both the standard and nano-textured models.

On its website, Apple says that only the nano texture Studio Display will come with a polishing cloth in the box, alongside the display itself and a one-meter Thunderbolt cable.

Apple's highest-end Pro Display XDR, regardless of configuration, does offer users a cloth in the box. Customers who purchase the standard Studio Display which starts at $1,599, will need to purchase Apple's $19 polishing cloth or look elsewhere for their display cleaning needs.

The fact that I even think a $20 piece of rag should be included with a $1600 monitor that needs a $400 option to gain height adjustment and the entire thing needs to be replaced with a new one if you ever decide to remount it in a different setting, just goes to show that Apple are becoming a parody of themselves. Don't know whether to laugh or cry at this point.
