Phones and Tablets

Just let the device dry later on!

Headphones and Earphones

Headphones get discolored and more with the passage of time. For over-the-ear headphones, use a microfiber cloth dabbed in water. For AirPods, you can do the same. With the help of earbuds, you can remove most of the dirt. For earphones, use soapy water. Dab a microfiber cloth in it and clean them thoroughly.

Use a microfiber cloth to clean a desktop PC. Dampen it in a screen cleaner or distilled water to clean the LCD and the metallic and plastic parts. Simple water will also suffice for the plastic parts. Just make sure to wipe them properly. You can use some alcohol and water to moisten a cotton swab for both your keyboard and mouse.

However, for the LCD, use a custom cloth microfiber cloth that’s available in the market. To clean touch screens, try a tablet cleaning wipe. It will work very well.

Flat-Screen TVs

For a flat TV screen, keep in mind that glass cleaners don’t work well. Instead, they are quite damaging due to their corrosive properties. Simply, use a microfiber cloth after dabbing it gently in the water. Don’t press with lots of pressure. You don’t want to damage the screen. Clean the remote with alcohol or water on a cotton swab. You’re good to go!

For the metal or plastic parts, use a plain microfiber cloth. Do not worry about dampening your microfiber cloth on older generations of speakers. Nothing will happen to them since a majority come with plastic surfaces.

Game Consoles and Controllers

Dust off your remote control with a dry cloth to begin with. Then, dip the microfiber cloth in a small amount of water. Clean all the crevices. Now, make a mixture of equal proportions of water and isopropyl alcohol. Apply this to the microfiber cloth and clean every part of the controller. In the end, you will have a glistening device!

How to Clean Fitness Trackers, Smartwatches

Make sure to clean fitness trackers and smartwatches with care. They’re delicate and you don’t want to damage their internals. Their internet speed capabilities may malfunction. Generally, a microfiber cloth and water will work well for the parts other than the ones that boast a silicon composition. For them, use alcohol. You can also combine water with baking soda to get rid of tougher stains. For nylon bands, use dish detergent and water to get rid of them.
