Hello everyone,

I wanted to ask if it is okay to clean my Nothing Phone (2a)'s Back and Camera Lens with 70% isopropyl alcohol?

Is it safe to clean the camera lenses with 70% isopropyl alcohol? If it is not, what else should i use to clean the camera lenses and what harm does it cause?

Answers appreciated.

Thank you.

It’s generally safe to clean the back of your phone and the camera lenses with 70% isopropyl alcohol, but there are a few things to consider.

1. Back of the phone: Isopropyl alcohol (70%) can be used on the back of your phone, but you should avoid soaking the device. Instead, apply a small amount to a microfiber cloth, and gently wipe the surface. Avoid getting any liquid into the ports or openings.

2. Camera Lenses: Isopropyl alcohol can be used on the camera lenses, but you should be extra careful. The lens coating may get damaged if too much alcohol is applied or if it’s rubbed too harshly. It’s better to use a microfiber cloth slightly dampened with the alcohol to wipe the lens gently. Avoid direct spraying, as this can leave moisture behind.

Alternative to Isopropyl Alcohol: You can also use a lens cleaning solution made specifically for cameras or phones, which is often gentler and designed for delicate surfaces. A soft microfiber cloth is always the best tool for cleaning lenses to avoid scratches.

Harm: Over time, aggressive cleaning with alcohol may cause the protective coating on the lens to degrade, leading to diminished photo quality or surface marks. Always be gentle and avoid using excess liquid.

    Hey there,

    As you mentioned, i usually apply a small amount of isopropyl alcohol on a microfiber cloth to clean my electronic devices. I don’t have any cleaning solutions (for phone and cameras) right now but i’m planning to buy one in the future, i’ll be very grateful if you could recommend me some good cleaning solutions.

    Thank you for the answer 😃

        Hi,

        For cleaning solutions, if you’re considering buying a ready-made product, I’d recommend something like iKlear or Screen Mom, as they’re specifically designed for electronic devices and safe for screens.

        If you’re looking for a more budget-friendly option, you can prepare your own solution by mixing 70% isopropyl alcohol with 30% distilled water. This works great with a microfiber cloth.
