• The smartphone screen gets dirty. How to remove grease stains from your phone screen. A cotton swab will save you

    « || »

    We all know that a smartphone is one of the dirtiest objects that we touch on a regular basis. Studies have shown that on the surface of this gadget there are no less bacteria and germs than on the toilet lid. Therefore, the habit of not cleaning your smartphone is one of the most unhygienic. This year, let's get rid of this bad habit that our laziness dictates to us and regularly monitor the cleanliness of our favorite gadget. And we will tell you how to properly clean your smartphone at home.

    How to clean your smartphone yourself

    To wipe the touch screen of your smartphone, use a special microfiber cloth or a piece of soft cotton cloth. Ideally, you should buy a special liquid for cleaning displays (computer, tablet, smartphone) - it effectively cleans the surface of the screen without leaving streaks. If you don’t have such a product at hand, use a weak soap solution or alcohol diluted with water in a ratio of 40/60.

    Lightly moisten a cloth in the prepared solution, then wipe the display and body of the device with it. The cloth should not be too wet, as your phone is not waterproof. And under no circumstances use harsh household chemicals or abrasive products to clean your smartphone.

    To get rid of dirty stains and fingerprints on the surface of the smartphone (without resorting to the method indicated above), you can also use tape - stick it on the surface of the gadget and remove it. In the same way, you can get small debris between the keys of the phone and in the cracks of its case. True, this will not protect you from germs and bacteria.

    If you want to take care not only of the external cleanliness of your smartphone, you need to regularly clean the contacts of its battery (this will help maximize its service life). To do this, remove the battery, wipe its metal contacts with alcohol and wait until they are completely dry. Then insert the battery back.

    Have you decided to replace your old phone with a new stylish and functional smartphone? We recommend visiting the online store http://notus.com.ua/Kommunikatori_lg, where a wide range of communicators from LG and other leading world brands are presented. Here you can choose your ideal phone for every taste and budget, and current promotions will make your purchase even more profitable!

    When buying an Android smartphone, everyone wants their new gadget to last as long as possible, while maintaining its original appearance. What part of a modern smartphone is the most vulnerable? What takes up almost the entire front panel of the phone? That's right, the screen. We will now talk about the eight best ways to protect it.

    1. According to the instructions.

    If your smartphone display is adapted to your fingers, then use them exclusively. If it involves the use of styluses, then use only recommended, branded accessories. You shouldn't improvise here.

    2. Softer and more tender.

    The era of buttons, which could and should have been pressed hard, has sunk into oblivion. The displays of all modern smartphones are capacitive, and should respond to even the laziest presses. Get used to it, and try to control your behavior during games, even when you are nervous. Your smartphone will clearly not like your frantically tapping your finger on the screen.

    3. Save money.

    If you don't need your smartphone screen at the moment, lock it. You shouldn't waste the limited resources of your display, not to mention the fact that by doing so you will significantly extend the life of the entire device on a single battery charge.

    4. Protect.

    Bumpers and cases provide a truly high level of protection. If you think that this will make your gadget look worse, then think again. There are truly stylish and creative cases that will not only extend the life of your high-tech companion, but also highlight your individuality.

    5. The film is still relevant.

    One of the best ways to protect your display from any scratches and maybe even cracks is. So it was, is and will be. Choose a good, high-quality, preferably glossy film that will not spoil the experience of using the device. Don't skimp too much.

    6. Be careful with the sun.

    Although the display's outstanding brightness "even in bright sunlight" is heavily touted in a sea of ​​marketing copy, be careful. Over time, direct sunlight can have a permanent detrimental effect on the color quality of your screen.

    7. Take proper care.

    Many Android smartphone users have the sin of wiping their screens with literally anything. You really need to wipe them, because over time they inevitably become dirty and stained for quite natural reasons, but this should only be done with special rags and microfiber cloths. If you don't follow this simple advice, you could end up with a scratched display instead of a smudged one, which is, frankly, much worse.

    When using a mobile phone, it is often handled with dirty hands, and as it is used, the phone itself becomes clogged with dust, the keyboard becomes dirty, and dirt deposits also accumulate between the keys. The mobile screen gets scratched, especially when the device is carried in pockets without a protective case. How to restore it so that the phone returns to its original “marketable” appearance. In fact, a simple question brought half of the service center into stupor and silence.

    One of the technicians advised how to repair a cell phone.

    First, you need to clean the case. In general, it is impossible to wash the body under running water!! As a result, your phone will simply fail, since water will get inside and can lead to a short circuit and failure of the microcircuits. Alcohol is also not acceptable, since it may leave white stains; moreover, alcohol is known to be an aggressive liquid and can easily damage the inscriptions on the buttons.

    Gasoline is also not suitable, as it can easily damage the case itself by dissolving the plastic.

    The most realistic solution to this problem is cotton wool slightly moistened with water; in a mobile phone, you must first disconnect the battery. Phones in which the design allows you to remove the front panel make it more convenient to detach it. Cleaning in this way must be done extremely carefully. But still, even this method is not optimal for cleaning the phone.

    To more effectively solve this problem, napkins of the “hygienic” type, which are impregnated with a special composition, can be used. (Phonecleans) wipes specially designed for cleaning cell phones are very good at removing dirt, grease, paint residues and all unwanted stains that may cover the phone’s body.

    Wipes not only remove stains and dirt from the surface, in addition, the surface is deodorized and germs are destroyed. These napkins are packaged both in tubes and small bags that are more convenient to carry with you.

    These cleaning wipes are made from a plastic, porous, well-absorbing material; the impregnation of these wipes consists of dissolving liquids, disinfectants and a fragrance with some kind of odor.

    Universal wipes can also be used to clean mobile phones.

    A cleaning product from a domestic manufacturer in the form of a spray called “Video Montage” can also be successfully used for this type of work; this spray is usually sold in radio equipment stores or other specialized stores, and costs approximately fifty rubles. To clean the surface, you need to apply the above liquid to the mobile phone, then wipe it with a suede cloth or, for example, a napkin, and one more nuance cannot be used for cleaning fabric-based materials, particles of such material will get into the inside of the phone. Although it should be noted that these liquids are not inherently intended specifically for cell phones, so when purchasing this product, you must consult the seller.

    If you are not a fan of experiments, but you still need to clean your phone, you should contact a service center. In the workshop, vacuum cleaners are used for this kind of manipulation, and they are also blown with compressed air to remove dust. An ultrasonic bath is used for washing; the price of such a service will cost from two hundred to three hundred rubles. Replacing a keyboard if the buttons on it are worn out will cost approximately thirty US dollars.

    In order to clean your mobile screen from unwanted stains or grease streaks, a special spray from BASF, produced by the company of the same name, will help you in this matter for cleaning the displays of mobile phones, as well as watches. One such can will cost five US dollars. This spray does not remove scratches, but does an excellent job of cleaning glass; remove the battery before use. After preparation, apply a little working fluid to the surface and wipe thoroughly with a fiber-free material.

    As a result of using a mobile phone, small scratches always appear on the surface of the screen. If the screen is covered with organic glass, it can be restored by polishing with pastes intended for this purpose.

    Only plexiglass can be polished; after polishing, the screen will look like new. Natural glass does not lend itself to this procedure and will need to be replaced with a new one.

    To do this, you will need to contact a service center; replacing the glass will cost you one hundred and fifty to three hundred rubles.

    If cleaning resulted in the breakdown of one or more components, we can advise you to purchase components for your phone from liberti.ru. On it you will find a very large number of different spare parts for a very large number of phone models from various manufacturers.

    Cleaning your phone is useful not only from an aesthetic point of view, but also for health, because as it recently turned out that.

    Hello everyone, are you tired of greasy spots on your phone? Today you will see how to remove them from the screen and make an oleophobic coating that will eliminate this problem for a long time. This is a very simple and cheap method that is available to everyone.
    First you need to degrease your smartphone screen using ethyl alcohol. Wipe and polish thoroughly to ensure the screen is as good as new. You can buy protective glasses with oleophobic coating in this Chinese store.

    We take any car wax with a nano prefix, this is very important. According to the instructions, apply it with a damp sponge to the phone display. If there are holes in the front panel, cover them to prevent wax from getting inside. Leave to dry for 2-3 minutes. Using a soft cloth, polish the phone display in a circular motion.


    Done, now let's test our coating, as you can see, there are no greasy spots left on the display, you will be happy with the result. Car wax does not negatively affect the touchscreen and the phone works fine. To make sure that a display that is not covered with a protective layer gets dirty very quickly, take a tablet and do a test before applying wax. Look, if you wipe the display and run your fingers over it, greasy stains immediately remain on it. Now let's cover it with wax just like the phone. As you can see, there are no greasy stains.

    A little advice! Before applying anything to your phone display, try it on a mirror or glass first.

    This is all nonsense. Wax (paraffin), itself greasy, is used to repel water, but not grease. The phone is constantly warm, and sometimes hot, and the coating becomes viscous, which itself creates streaks from the fingers. Take the wax and rub it on the mirror, blow it with a hairdryer and then with your fingers, and you will see for yourself what happens. Even worse... That is, this is nonsense for those who, like the author of the video, use their fingertip or nail to move across the screen, like coolly cleaned the phone of grease and that’s it...

    alex tor you are nonsense. Paradoxically, the word “wax” does not mean at all that there is wax.

    I would advise the author of the video to carefully study the polish manufacturer’s recommendations for its use before giving advice. Namely, the point where it is written in plain English that if it gets on glass, immediately wash it with undiluted car shampoo!

    The best way to remove grease stains from your smartphone

    How to clean your smartphone and other gadgets? We've all been there: you buy a new device, but just a month later it looks completely different. Thank you, dust and dirt! But don't worry! There are a couple of brilliant life hacks for almost every device. In just a couple of minutes, your phone or keyboard will look like it came out of the box again. If you want to learn magical cleaning tricks, watch our new video.

    Content:
    – Speakers are a magnet for all the dust on the planet. In such a situation, a regular clothes brush will come to the rescue. Just run it over the speakers and it will remove all the dust.
    – A toothbrush is great not only for your teeth, but also for your headphones. There are many hard-to-reach places, which is why they are so difficult to clean properly.
    – The eraser will remove all the dirt from your headphones in seconds, making them perfectly clean again.
    – The headphone jack is one of the most problematic areas. It can be cleaned with an interdental brush.
    – Does it seem impossible to get all the dirt and crumbs out of the space between the keys? The tape will do the job in one simple move.
    – Clean the device screen with a microfiber cloth. It will not leave unwanted scratches or stains.
    – Apply a cleaning product like Stickum to a stick or plate (which should be narrower than the USB port itself). Be sure to spread the glue evenly on the Stickum so that there are no lumps that may later make it difficult to remove the plate from the port. Once the glue is dry, it's time to clean! Insert the processed part of the plate into the port, pull it out and enjoy a clean device!
    – To clean LCD displays, mix distilled water and white vinegar in a 1:1 ratio and pour the mixture into a spray bottle. Turn off the device, find a soft cloth, spray it on it and wipe the screen.


    Let's start with something simple - cleaning the case. Of course, you cannot wash a cell phone in the usual sense of the word. If harmful moisture seeps inside, cosmetic repairs will turn into major repairs. It is also not recommended to use alcohol to wipe the case. The fact is that it often leaves unsightly stains or a white coating - a trace of rapid evaporation. In addition, alcohol can get inside the device and damage the varnish on some parts and contacts. Provocative assumption “What if it’s gasoline?” caused real panic among service workers. "No way!" - the specialists shouted in one voice. Gasoline can burn delicate plastic.

    The simplest possible solution is to wipe the cell phone body with a little (!) cotton wool soaked in water. For safety reasons, it is better to disconnect the battery. On devices with a removable front panel like the Nokia 3210, it is convenient to remove this panel to clean the keyboard.

    However, the “water” method cannot be called extremely effective. A better solution could be special sanitary napkins for mobile phones (there are such!). Phonecleans "telephone" wipes remove paint, grease and other stains that do not decorate the device from cell phones. Moreover, they not only clean, but also deodorize the surface and remove germs. They are supplied in bags and jars (tubes). The wipes are made of soft, highly absorbent material and contain cleaning solvents, strong bactericidal agents and fragrance. They can be used for any phone. True, such napkins are not very cheap, but approximately $6 per pack (100 pieces).

    Some well-known companies, such as BASF, also produce sanitary napkins for mobile phones. The BASF cleaning kit is suitable not only for phones, but also for computer monitors, keyboards, and other electronic devices in a plastic case.

    These napkins are produced in Finland, and in Russia a set of 100 pieces costs about 100 rubles. At the beginning of this year, BASF plans to expand its range of cleaning products - a new product, Mobile Cleaning, will appear, designed for the care of laptops, LCD monitors and mobile phones.

    Among the domestic products, we were recommended a special cleaning spray “Videomontazh”. It can be purchased at radio stores for about 50 rubles. After applying this liquid to the surface of the device, it should be thoroughly wiped with a soft cloth or chamois leather. It is better not to use cloth, as lint may get inside the phone.

    It should be noted that most domestic “rinses” (again, according to service center employees) are not intended for cell phones, therefore, when purchasing this or that cleaning product in a store, it is worth asking the seller about this.

    If you are not inclined to experiment, and the time has already come to clean the pipe, contact the appropriate workshop. There, air blowing and special mini-vacuum cleaners are used to clean cellular devices from dust. In addition, we were told about a special device that uses ultrasound to remove the smallest dust particles. This procedure will cost 200-350 rubles. And replacing a keyboard with erased numbers with a new one costs no more than $30.

    PINKERTON STAIN REMOVER

    A sore point for many handset owners is their displays. With active use (and especially if the display is slightly convex, such as the Siemens S25), unattractive scratches and stains inevitably appear on the screens. But if you wish, you can get rid of both.

    Models from certain manufacturers (say, Ericsson) have displays made of real glass, and they are not easy to scratch. However, there are handsets (most Nokia models) whose screen is made of two glasses. The outer protects the inner from mechanical damage. Strictly speaking, this is not glass, but plexiglass. Over time, the exterior becomes unusable - it becomes cloudy due to many micro-scratches. Special grinding pastes help restore the original shine and transparency. Only plexiglass can be sanded - scratches that cause clouding will disappear, and the screen will look like new. On real glass, grinding paste will not have the desired effect. And then the only way to get rid of scratches is to replace the glass. Service centers will charge you 150-300 rubles for this procedure, depending on the model of the device.

    The grinding paste costs $8-10 per tube and, as far as we know, is not produced in Russia. Service centers and fairly advanced users buy it abroad - in Germany or Finland. However, there is no particular point in purchasing a whole tube for individuals, since it is more than enough for several phones, and the shelf life of the paste is, as a rule, limited. Some service centers will undertake to polish a mobile phone screen for 50 rubles. The grinding process is simple: the paste is applied to the surface of the display and rubbed in with suede or a piece of soft, dense cloth. As a result of annoying minor scratches, I was gone! As an example of such a paste, let's use Hama Displex.

    In turn, to clean the display from grease stains, fingerprints and dirt, you can use a special BASF spray. It is designed for cell phone screens and watch glasses. The price of one can is about $5. It doesn't remove scratches, but it cleans real glass quite well. Before “washing,” the device must be turned off and the battery removed. Then apply the liquid to the display and wipe it with a clean paper towel or soft chamois leather.

    You can also combat dirt on your mobile phone screen with a cotton swab slightly moistened with water or soapy water. However, here you should act with extreme caution and carefully squeeze out the water (just not over the tube). True, the cleansing effect will most likely not be the same. And you can’t wipe off scratches with water.
