Capacitive Touchscreen vs Resistive Touchscreen
If you’re after a new phone, there’s a good chance the one you wind up with will have a touchscreen.However, if you’re planning on giving into the touchscreen trend, there are a few important things to consider. The most important of these is that there are actually two types of touchscreen predominantly used in phones – resistive and capacitive. The experience of using the two is quite different
How they work
The main reason they’re quite so different to use is that the way they register the presence of your finger and its prods are poles apart. Resistive technology works the way you might first imagine a touchscreen would function – it senses pressure.
The resistive touchscreen itself is made up of several layers, the topmost of which flexes under your finger or stylus, and is pushed back onto a layer behind it. This effectively completes a circuit, telling the phone which part of the screen is being pressed.
Capacitive touchscreens don’t rely on pressure, but rather they use electrodes to sense the conductive properties of objects, such as your finger. So, they don’t rely on having an object pressing particularly hard on their surface, but will only react to certain objects. Prod one with a standard stylus and you’ll get nowhere.
In Practice
Thanks to these core differences, the experience of using each type of touchscreen is almost instantly recognisable. The most famous phone of the last couple of years, Apple’s iPhone, uses a capacitive touchscreen, which helps to give the phone its ‘light touch’ interface.s capacitive screens don’t need much contact at all, you can swipe across them very lightly and get just as good a response.
resistive touchscreen phones won’t normally react at all to a very light swipe.
Using a finger, capacitive screens will seem much more responsive.
So, it may sound like a capacitive touchscreen is the way to go, without any doubt, but things aren’t quite that simple.
