It's said that mobile device is full of bacteria from the surrounding. What is the best way to clean the surface of a mobile device? is wet tissue alone enough? Do I need to spray some alcohol and clean it? will that damage the ports or the device????

Water, if you have water resistance.

Water alone won't be able to get rid of grease from your fingers. Be careful about using alcohol though, because they can dissolve the oleophobic coating of your screen. I use a teensy bit of dishwashing detergent on a wet cloth before wiping it off with another wet cloth. Haven't had any issues.
About the hygienic aspect, I wouldn't worry too much if your personal hygiene is good. If you have bad habits like using it in restrooms without washing your hands after touching your private parts, sure. Clean it often. If not, we're surrounded by microbes every day and most of them do us no harm, so it's nothing to obsess about. Heck, bacteria outnumber our cells 10:1 and make up 1-3% of our body mass. We need them to survive. -

Shouldn't a simple cloth be enough for finger grease?

Actually, I'm interested to hear what others use now. I know there are specific screen cleaning products, but those seem like an unnecessary expense to me.Last edited: May 22, 2018 -

Uhmmm, wasn't talking about using cloth with water, just cloth alone for finger grease...
