CLEANING AND MAINTAINING THE PHONE SCREEN

All the phone screens are made up of glass and so needs to be cleaned and maintained at least twice a week. When the maintenance of the screen is the concern then one should always apply a tempered glass to the screen immediately after buying a phone as it not only keeps the original glass clean and scratch free but also prevents the glass from breaking due to accidental damages.

To clean a phone screen, one needs to have access to a microfiber cloth or sachets of tissues dipped in alcohol which are usually provided with the screen guard or with a cleaning spray. If one doesn’t have those then one can buy the articles from the link provided. The microfiber cloth along with the cleansing gel can be used to clean the screen appropriately. One needs to just follow the series of some simple steps:

  1. Detach the tempered glass if it had been applied previously.
  2. Clean the phone screen with the microfiber cloth made wet with the application of the cleaning gel.
  3. Clean the screen with the dry side of the cloth.
  4. Now see minutely if any dirt is left and then apply a new tempered glass to the screen.

The above process can be repeated once a month if there is a presence of tempered glass but should be done twice a week at least when one hasn’t applied a protector to the screen.

CLEANING THE PHONE BODY

The phone body needs to be cleaned often as the dust particles all around settle on the phone body, thus clogging a number of components. The best thing which one can do to prevent the settling of the dust particles on the phone is to equip it with a proper phone cover. It would be best if someone applies a hard cover to the phone or rather laminates the phone because this may prevent the coagulation of dust particles directly on the phone rather allowing it to settle on the cover which can be changed easily.

Steps to clean the phone body:

Total Time: 5 minutes

Step 1

Remove the cover or the lamination of the phone.

Step 2

Take a dry cloth and dust out all the dirt which have settled on the phone body.

Step 3

Apply cleansing gel/Shining liquid on the body of the phone by some few drops.

Step 4

Clean the phone surface gently so that it doesn’t get scratched.

Step 5

Now again clean it with a dry cloth and apply the cover.

The steps are very simple:

  1. Gently insert the brushes inside the ports of the phone and start to make vertical/horizontal movement till the dust particles start coming out.
  2. Repeat the steps till no more dust is left inside it.
  3. Do not enter any wet material inside the ports as it may damage the ports permanently.
