This is a nicely designed product that comes in compact and reusable packaging. The teraglove is double-sided, the black side removes smears and the gray side removes dust. You can turn it inside out so your hands can slide in the little pocket as you can see in the product pictures above.Unlike a microfiber cloth, this is a two step process. First you spray a small amount of water on the teraglove and then use the teraglove to clean your screen. Do not spray water directly on the device and do not soak or drench the teraglove. Just a little bit of water is more than enough.The water spraying part? The teraglove comes with a small empty spray bottle. The instructions clearly state that you should only use water for cleaning, water and nothing else.The spray bottle looks semi luxurious considering its purpose. I thought I was using a cosmetics spray. Some may decide to repurpose the spray for cosmetic purposes if the teraglove is lost or worn out :)The instructions are on the back of the outer packaging of the main surface, inside the opened outer box. There is no separate instructions sheet.The addition of water is what does the trick of cleaning displays. This combination removes stains from a heavily used 10-inch tablet that were not removed with a plain microfiber cloth (without water).It is important to note that the advantage of this is when you spray water on the teraglove. If you want to use it like a microfiber cloth, you don't get any advantages. Without water, a microfiber cloth may even have an advantage because you can reshape it.Because of this size of this glove, this is best suited for tablet size screens, although phone screens are getting bigger and bigger, so it's hard to draw the line.As with many purchases, it comes down to pricing. If you are okay with paying a higher price, this product works well. But if you want to be thrifty, a microfiber cloth can do the job most of the time.
