ZEISS Pre-Moistened Screen Cleaner Wipes, 120 Count

Worth the money!

I carry several of these wipes in my pocket, computer bag, camera bag, and emergency kit. They can be a lifesaver when you have dirty classes, camera lenses, phone screens, etc. and you don’t have access to liquid lens cleaners and microfiber cloths. Zeiss Mobile Screen and Lens Wipes are packed compactly, but unfold to a size that works well in the hand. They’re infused with a tiny bit of cleaning solution that cuts thru grease, dirt, etc. and results in a clean surface. My only knock against them is they’re a bit thin and fragile, and will tear when used – but they do a great job cleaning lenses and screens. You can buy them in a variety of package sizes (which is nice ‘cuz you can try ’em and see if you like ’em), they’re affordable, and they work. I like ’em so much I keep buying ’em and using ’em. I think you’d like ’em too, and I recommend highly recommend them. 5 Stars.

My mobile has a glass screen protector so my review only applies to similar phones or those with no screen protector at all. The wipes claim to be effective on larger devices including laptops, but I don’t have a touch screens on my laptop so can’t test that properly. I would say, though, that the wipes are too small to use on a laptop easily and would probably tend to smear. On my phone, the wipes cleared fingerprints and smears well. I wiped very gently a couple of time vertically and then horizontally using the wipe unfolded and then re-folded twice to give a reasonable pad. I gave the screen a minute to dry and examined it under artificial light – to highlight any residual smears. It was perfectly clean apart from a few dust specks – from the air, not the cleaner. A single, gentle wipe with a microfibre cloth fixed that.

On cleaning bigger screens, including standard desktops, I have found the following methods the cheapest and most effective. First, these screens can get filthy, even if not touch screens. So, the first step is to get the dirt off. For this I use old lint-free, non-scratch larger wipes that have dried up – never throw these out if unused. Dampen the wipe slightly under the tap and squeeze out most of the moisture – it should not drip even when squeezed. Wipe the screen gently, checking the wipe after each use for dirt and grit. If coloured, do the next wipe using a clean part of the cloth. When no more dirt is coming off the screen, leave it to dry for a minute. Then give it a final gentle wipe with a clean microfibre cloth. That’s all you need to do. In particular, I would avoid any spray cleaner. The temptation is to spray the screen – not a good idea! And, even if you spray the cleaning cloth, the tendency is to get it too wet. Similarly, with wet wipes, these are expensive and often too small and too thin for the larger screens, even when folded.

Great for ipad

These are amazing. I was having the worst time trying to get my iPad Air 4 screen clean. I honestly thought I had damaged my screen somehow. I was using a soft lens/glasses cloth but it never could get the screen clean and free of streaks. These wipes (suggested to me by my camera-nut son in NYC) are a god send. Yes, they are quite expensive, no doubt, but honestly … they are worth every cent. I use one about once a week so ultimately they work out to be not “that” expensive when you think about the results you get. Highly recommend.

Easy to use

They are good at cleaning, but if they fresh. It seems that I bought pack from an old batch, because they’re almost dry. You have to moisturized them with clean water before use. They clean good, with no visible imprints left, they can handle oil, fingerprint and other dirt very well, but you need to add some water before.
