Comparison With Other Touchscreen Technologies
Capacitive touchscreens are more responsive than resistive touchscreens.
A standard stylus cannot be used for capacitive sensing, but special capacitive styli, which are conductive, exist for the purpose. One can even make a capacitive stylus by putting some form of conductive material, such as anti-static conductive foam on the tip of a standard stylus. Capacitive touchscreens are more expensive to manufacture and are significantly less accurate than resistive touchscreens. Some cannot be used with gloves, and can fail to sense correctly with even a small amount of water on the screen.
Power supplies with a high level electronic noise can reduce accuracy.
