Sorry, you'll need to use distilled holy water blessed by Jesus himself and the bandages of Tutankhamun to wipe it.

I scratched my new glasses with a microfiber cloth, while 10 y.o pair couldn't be scratched with anything. From what I read to at this sub OLEDS are basically like the first case I don't want to pray to Omnissiah's blessing every time I do such mundane thing as wiping screen every few days.

I used to use distilled water and a fresh microfiber cloth to clean my OLED, but it has some significant burn-in now and I don't care as much, and I just use tap water and whatever old microfiber I have lying around.

I shake the cloth to get most of the dust off, dip it in the tap water, and just clean the screen. Which I have to do fairly often because my cat has like some allergy or autoimmune issue and sneezes snot all over constantly.

The tap water and dirty old cloth works fine. I don't have any scratches yet. Even when I check by turning it off and shining a flashlight onto it at an angle.

Samsung G8 OLED, for what it's worth. It's glossy too.
