I always used the same old way to clean my phone screen until my kid showed me something better

For years I just wiped my phone with a dry cloth, which left streaks and never got rid of the greasy spots. Last week, my son showed me his method: a tiny bit of distilled water on a microfiber cloth. I tried both ways on my two-year-old phone, and the water method left it spotless in about 30 seconds, no streaks at all. The dry cloth just smeared the oil around and took twice as long. I guess I was worried about getting any liquid near it, but a drop of distilled water on the right cloth works way better. Has anyone else found a simple trick that works way better than the usual way?

You used a dry cloth for years? That sounds like torture. My screen would be a greasy mess in two days. I can't believe you put up with streaks for so long. A little water makes all the difference.

My friend's laptop shorted out from a "little water" once.
