Do you have it in a case?

Because if you ever need to take it in to repair, I’m not sure they’ll appreciate having to take your dusty phone out.

It’s not like you could clean the dust inside.

Just by putting your phone in your pocket and walking around, you’re essentially wiping it all around.

Yeah. They’re germ magnets, worse than doorknobs. I have a waterproof phone and just wash it when I wash my hands; before that I used alcohol wipes.

Maybe once every 5 years when I get a new phone. My current one is about 4 years old. It doesn’t seem particularly dirty.
