Keyboard & Electronics

BySir Cleans a Lot

Your keyboard can harbor up to 20,000 times more bacteria than a toilet seat, and your phone screen isn’t much better. That’s not meant to alarm you — it’s why this section exists. Keyboard & Electronics gathers 75 practical guides for anyone who wants to clean the devices they rely on all day without damaging them. You’ll find step-by-step how-tos, product recommendations, and troubleshooting fixes, all organized by device and problem. Whether it’s sticky keyboard keys, a charging port that won’t charge, scratch-prone TV screens, or earbud mesh clogged with wax, there’s a method here that will get it clean safely.

This section is useful for a wide range of readers: beginners who have never removed a keycap, experienced owners who want deeper cleaning routines, buyers comparing cleaning solutions, and troubleshooters facing one stubborn issue. If you’re starting from scratch, begin with “How to Clean Your Entire Laptop” to build a solid foundation, then move to “How to Deep Clean a Mechanical Keyboard” for more advanced keycap and switch care. If you’re fixing a specific problem, jump straight to “How to Fix Sticky Keyboard Keys” or “How to Safely Clean a Phone Charging Port” — both cover common failures with clear, tested steps.

Along the way, you’ll learn why a cleaning gel can reach keyboard crevices that cotton swabs can’t, and why the wrong screen-cleaning solution can strip the coating off your TV. The guides also cover phone cases, remotes, gaming controllers, headphones, and the screens you look at most — so there’s a practical answer for nearly every device in your home. Scroll through the full list below and find the mess you’re dealing with; a cleaner, longer-lasting setup is a few minutes away.
