How to clean iPhone speakers

2

Overtime iPhone speakers will eventually become filled up with dust and other debris. This can impact the quality of sound and possibly even cause damage to your phone. That’s why it’s important to clean your iPhone speakers regularly.

Why clean your iPhone speakers?

Sound quality

Over time, dust, debris, and pocket lint can accumulate in and around the speakers, diminishing the audio quality. Cleaning your iPhone speakers ensures that the sound remains crisp and clear, enhancing your overall listening experience.

Preventing muffling

Dirty speakers can lead to muffling or distortion of sound, making it harder to hear notifications, calls, or music. By keeping the speakers clean, you can avoid these disruptions and enjoy consistently clear audio.

Extending lifespan

The accumulation of particles can put stress on your iPhone’s speakers, potentially leading to damage over time. Regular cleaning helps prevent wear and tear, contributing to the longevity of your device.

The best way to clean iPhone speakers

Gentle tools

Use a soft-bristled brush, like a clean makeup brush or a small paintbrush, to gently sweep away surface debris. Avoid using sharp or abrasive tools that could damage the delicate speaker components.

Air

Use a device such as an air blower to remove any debris. Do not use a can of compressed air as this has too much pressure.

Hold your iPhone at a slight angle and carefully blow short bursts of air into the speaker grills. Be cautious not to use excessive force, as this could damage the speakers.

DIY cleaning putty

Alternatively, you can use a commercially available cleaning putty specifically designed for electronics. Gently press the putty onto the speaker grills and lift it away to pick up any embedded particles.
