Are fingerprints a problem on the touch screen interface of the iPhone?

Answer 1

Fingerprints & the right CleanersWell if obviously you are not cleaning it they are, but you can actually find a couple of good cleaners out there that work with the iPhones Optical Glass Display. As the smudges, fingerprints, and smears build up it gets difficult for everyday items to clean it properly, and you are definitely not to use any ammonia based compounds such as windex, or anything like that, on the optical glass.

You have a couple of choices, but one I have personally have found that works well is one called iKlenz. I haven't seen it at store around my area yet or anything, but you can find it on the net to order. There are some other good ones, but I liked this one for the travel factor and cloth quality.

All in all it may not always be what good one you use but what not to use so you don't damage it. I would just advise on getting a good cleaner that is made for it as well as a cloth that works on that type of Screen.

Another alternative is to get a clear covering for the front of the iPhone, there are several made specifically for the iPhone. Some are strictly clear and others are a Matt finish which reduces reflections and fingerprints.
