Why clean the monitor or screen correctly?

When you clean your screen incorrectly, whether it’s on your laptop, computer or TV monitor , it’s just a matter of time before it gets damaged.

Modern HDTV and monitor displays are brighter, sharper and more responsive than ever before , but they’re also more delicate.

It takes a bit of manufacturing magic to create a razor-sharp image on such a slim format and polish it with a bottle of Windex and a rag you took from the kitchen.

Taking care of these devices lightly is a surefire way to shorten the life of your screen, while keeping in mind that it could touch other components of the computer, such as the keyboard or the microphone of the computer.
