๐คง New & cheaper Apple Polishing Cloth
๐ฐ The new Polishing Cloth still works on any Apple surface or display, as stated in the instructions. The size hasn't changed, but it's a bit darker, much softer, and thinner. Crumple the old one and it snaps back into shape fast โ crumple the new one and it stays wrinkled, that's how soft it is. Early buyers describe it as closer to a glasses-cleaning cloth, or very similar in lightness to the Vision Pro's cloth.
๐ฆ The packaging has changed too: the box is now thinner, and the opening seal is longer. The amount of text on the back of the box also varies by region.

๐ Apple's new charger has a retractable plug that pops out at the push of a button
๐ฐ Apple's 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with a retractable Europlug is now rolling out across 19 European countries plus Vietnam. Folded up, it's smaller than a bar of soap as the prongs tuck flush into the body when not in use, making it a lot more pocket/bag-friendly than a standard fixed-prong charger.
๐ Specs: it delivers a sustained 40W with bursts up to 60W.
๐ถ In the EU, the Europlug version is priced at โฌ45.

๐ Say hello to Apple's new CEO, John Ternus โ the guy who's spent the last several years running hardware: iPhone, Mac, iPad, all of it his call.
โข There's something fitting here: Cook was about operations and supply chains, Ternus is about engineering and product. One built the system, the other builds the things you actually hold in your hand.
โข And there's basically no time to settle in. September 9 brings the big iPhone event, where the first foldable is expected. So Ternus steps into the job literally a week before one of the most important dates on Apple's calendar.
โข Analysts are split on whether this was the right call. Some argued software chief Craig Federighi made more sense, given how far Apple is lagging in AI. But Carolina Milanesi of Creative Strategies pushes back: people buy hardware first, and only later figure out what AI is actually good for. So betting on a hardware engineer tracks.

โข MagSafe support is expected despite the 4.5mm thickness โ the iPhone Air already proved magnets can fit in a slim body
โข No room Face ID hardware, so Touch ID will handle biometrics

โข Passport-style form factor that is wide, but reportedly comfortable to use
โข A20 Pro chip, C2 modem

โข Camera Control returns, but no Action Button
โข A reinforced, extra-durable hinge
โข Apple has invested heavily in seamless app resizing as you switch between the two displays
โข Announcement expected September 9, with launch either alongside the iPhone 18 Pro or slightly staggered

๐ต iPhone Ultra pricing has leaked
๐ฐ Vodafone Australia briefly published a pricing page for Apple's first foldable iPhone and pulled it down almost immediately. But screenshots have already spread online:
๐งฎ Prices in Australia typically run about 30% higher than in the US, so recalculated, that puts the US starting price around $2100-2300. That lines up with forecasts from Mark Gurman and TrendForce analysts.
โ ๏ธ If the leaked page is accurate, pre-orders start September 12. Keep in mind this is unofficial: Apple hasn't confirmed any of it, and even the name iPhone Ultra isn't final.
