    Questions and Misunderstandings

    After seeing the working principles of the two screens, I believe many netizens have a general understanding of capacitive screens and resistive screens. However, I believe that many friends do not have a personal use process, so there will inevitably be misunderstandings. Then the editor will answer these misunderstandings in detail for you.

 1. Does the capacitive screen not support the stylus?

    Answer: In fact, capacitive screens do not support stylus pens, but to realize this function depends on the binding IC, and the current production process of capacitive screens that support handwriting is very complicated, and of course the yield rate is not high. Of course, in addition to the limitations of IC technology, there are some functions that are restricted by patent rights, so it is still very difficult to realize the use of a stylus on a capacitive screen.

  2. What is the relationship between the capacitive screen and the resistive screen and the TFT screen and AMOLED screen in the usual article?

    Answer: In fact, TFT screen and AMOLED screen are a kind of display screens. The essential difference from touch screens such as capacitive screens and resistive screens is that they can emit light. The TFT screen integrates a backlight switch on the back, so it displays a bright display and consumes a lot of energy. However, the light-emitting diode of the latest AMOLED screen has the characteristics of self-luminescence, so it can not only have the same gorgeous realistic effect, but also greatly save energy. The capacitive screen and resistive screen are touch screens located at the front end, which can achieve touch operation but cannot emit light like TFT screens and AMOLED screens.

  3. Which of capacitive screen or resistive screen is more expensive?

    Answer: The screen manufacturing prices of different manufacturers are also different, and the price of capacitive screens will be 10 percent to 50 percent more expensive than resistive screens. This extra cost doesn't matter to flagship products, but it may discourage mid-priced phones. Therefore, the price of capacitive screen phones we currently see tends to be very high.

  4. Does the capacitive screen only support multi-touch?

    Answer: In fact, the resistive screen can also achieve simple multi-point touch, but we have introduced its working principle above, so after two points touch the screen, it may cause the two points A and B to be unable to balance the force measurement and cause touch Insensitive phenomenon occurs.

    Summarize:

    Although we just gave a brief introduction to capacitive screens and resistive screens today, I believe it will be helpful to netizens when they choose touch screen phones. Of course, although the price of the capacitive screen is high, the sensitivity and function are due to the resistive screen. However, there must be a reason. Resistive screens are also widely used due to their low price and support for stylus and other hard objects touch. So after we understand the essential difference between the two screens, we will be more confident when choosing a touch-screen mobile phone.

    The difference between capacitive screen and resistive screen

    The following is a comparison of screens between Apple iPhone and Orange HiPhone recorded by China Mobile Phone. Although Apple iPhone is much better than Orange HiPhone in terms of hardware configuration, it is very intuitive by browsing the pictures. I understand that there is still a big gap between capacitive screens and resistive screens in terms of touch.

    Capacitive screen resistive screen comparison
    Of course, we can learn from the video that capacitive screens are indeed superior to resistive screens in terms of touch sensitivity and support for multi-touch. In fact, the above two points are only the most intuitive aspects we can understand. In addition to multi-touch and sensitivity, there are some hidden differences between capacitive and resistive screens.
