One of the best aspects of this job is product testing. There are millions of products, so I certainly don’t see all of them in the industry, but I do see most any that people would consider buying. This morning UPS brought me a neat little ScreenClean.
What you are looking at is a customizable card stock paper about the size of my iPhone (the black rectangle). The actual product is the little Pfizer and Chucks logos in the center. They’re made from a mico-fiber with an adhesive backing (which is more of a cling material than an actual adhesive).
The purpose: To have a tiny, easily accessible cleaner wipe available at all times.
How it works: The little piece of fabric sticks to your actual phone, creating a logo seen to the world. It also sticks to any non-super-dirty surface. You pull it off when you need it, stick the sticky part to your finger and clean, then put it back. The sticky part is restored when rinsed in water.
The good: I love the idea. Tapping in to the logoing of phones via charms, covers, skins and now this. We always need a cleaner for our devices.
The bad: I am apprehensive about the adhesive. It does the job, but doesn’t feel like it should (feels weak). Then again, if it were strong, and I left it in my purse, who knows what kind of crap it would pick up. The “adhesive” is actually more of a cling material.
