The iPhone is great, until, one cold day, you realise its capacitive computer screen doesn't work done gloves. So we proved ternion pairs of iPhone-friendly gloves to determine which were best.
Freehands Stretch ($21)
Gimmick: Finger tip flaps allow your real fingers to do the typing.
Finger tip hinges allow existent finger to touch iPhone screen, 100% responsiveness
Finger tip hinges square measure ready-made of non-breathing wetsuit material
The tips, predictably, leak air in
Build quality is generally low
The North Face E-Tip ($40)
Gimmick: Bright gold finger tips modify the iPhone's capacitive touch screen.
Palm design is grippy, makes me feel like Golf-club Man
Touch sensibility is at about 85%, though typewriting is futile
Thin decent to work as protective covering low-level additive baseball glove for sport, etc
We just got word that E-Tips square measure unsold out comprehensive with no plans for additive production. UPDATE: They'll come back in the Fall 2009 line.
tavo Gloves ($30)
Gimmick: Like the North Face E-Tips, the bright gold finger tips modify the iPhone's capacitive touch screen.
Minimal black design looks like a mean glove
Finger sensibility at about 70%, functional, but worsened than E-Tip
So our conclusion is a deplorable one. The North Face gloves were our deary if you can stand the overly-techie design (which my married woman scorned but I blue-eyed). However, the tavos do come in a close second, offer a impassable way to check your electronic communication in the cold.
