Default Cleaning up phone - White Xperia S

So, guys. It's been almost a year since I got my white Xperia S. With all this time, it is normal to get dirty.

The back part, without cover, I use a damp cotton swab, to clean the dirt on the sides and the camera. For the back cover, a slightly damp cloth yo clean it. But the worst part is on the logos on the phone. Xperia, HDMI and USB. They have some dirt on it. It is brownish.

What you use to clean your phone, specially the logo?

What logo you are talking about bro? The Sony Logo or the imprinted text of Xperia, HDMI and USB in the device body?

^ the imprinted logos, of course.
anyways, try taking a toothpick and just "pick" the dirt in the letters, then wipe off with a wet tower or something. also u could use soap, but be very careful. OR you could just put some antibacterial soap on a toothpick and pick it again lol.

Or you could use alcohol wipes or use viniger, or even citric juice(lemons), anything with low pH will work just as good.
BTW don't go too low or it will just corrode your device

Imprinted ones. Ok I see. I use a Light Glass/Mirror Cleaner and cotton bud to clear those. Works fine.

Thanks. I meant a way to reach the imprinted logos. As they are imprinted, it's harder to reach and such...
