How dirty are our smartphones and laptops, and how can we clean them

 

Smartphones

The first step is to power down your device. Once it's off, use a soft, lint-free cloth dampened with water or a mild alcohol-based disinfectant solution to wipe down the exterior. Be sure to avoid getting any moisture in the charging port, headphone jack, or other openings. Once you're done wiping down the outside, use a new, dry cloth to wipe off any excess moisture.

 

Now it's time to move onto the touchscreen. Start by using an anti-static screen protector or microfiber cloth to remove any dust or debris from the surface. Next, dampen a clean cloth with water or an alcohol-based solution and use it to wipe down the screen in a gentle, circular motion. If you're using an alcohol-based solution, dilute it with water first; otherwise, you risk damaging the touch screen. Once you clean the screen, use a new, dry cloth to wipe away any excess moisture.

 

Laptops

As with smartphones, the first step is to power down your laptop. Once it's off, unplug all the cords and peripherals and remove any external storage devices; flip it over so you can access the underside. Next, use a vacuum attachment or compressed air duster to remove any dust from the vents, fans, and other openings; then, use a damp cloth—preferably one that's been sprayed with an alcohol-based solution—to wipe down the rest of the exterior surface. Again, avoid getting any moisture in the ports or other openings. Once you're done cleaning the outside of your laptop, use a new cloth—this time dry—to wipe away any residual moisture.

 

Now it's time to move on to cleaning the keyboard. Start by using a vacuum attachment or compressed air duster to remove any dust or debris between the keys; then use a cotton swab dipped in distilled water—or an alcohol-based solution if necessary—to lightly dampen the keys themselves before wiping them clean with a microfiber cloth. Be sure not to get too much liquid on the keys; otherwise, they could become damaged. Finally, use another microfiber cloth—this one dry—to buff away any residual moisture on the keys before putting everything back together again.
