Clean Machine: The 8 Best Ways To Clean Your Dirty Phone or Laptop Screen

* Finally be rid of fingerprints and smudges
* Using regular wipes or tissues could damage your screen
* Make sure you choose screen-specific products

Phones, laptops and tablets don’t stay clean after days of hard use and transportation. Dust, dirt, and worst of all, greasy fingerprints are unavoidable. Luckily, dozens of products have been created to solve the problem. The most effective option is to use cleaning cloths and screen-specific cleaning solutions, or pre-moistened screen cleaner wipes. Here are the 8 best screen cleaning options we’ve found.

1. Live Happy Mop Top Screen Cleaner

This happy little stylus doubles as a microfiber screen mop, and fits seamlessly into your pen and pencil pocket. It’s ideal for small smudges and prints, but won’t work great for bigger cleaning jobs, too.

2. Belkin Screen Cleaning Kit – BEST VALUE

Belkin’s screen cleaning kit comes with a small bottle of alcohol-free and residue-free cleaning solution and a large microfiber cloth. At under $10, this is the best deal for a cloth and solution cleaning kit.
