Touch screen test

interesting, i wonder how it fairs with the n900. Anyone care to test this?

edit:
i know it's for capacitive screens but still interesting test

Not fair or apples or apples as you said, but with a ruler, a stylus, the sketch application, and not a lot of patience we see:



Very very accurate. The scuffs in the middle I think were caused by the ruler pressing down :-)

This test is only suitable for capacitive screens. Not resistive screens (N900). However, I'm impressed that the Nexus One is doing similar to the iPhone in the medium-pressue full-finger test.


Just goes to show that capacitive isn't always better than resistive.

Wow. Straight lines becoming sine waves. Every branch of maths weeps
And people still demand this type of screens

It all boils down to what you need.

For those platforms, especially the iPhone you won't be able to get an application into the App store unless its finger friendly. Thus a capacitative screen works well.

Yet applications on the N900 can range from finger friendly to requiring a stylus. Thus a resistive screen makes more sense since precision is needed.

haha you big cheat with a ruler! lol :P

still fair play for spending time doing it. i wonder what a good resistive screen test would be?

Remember, every app on each phone is different as well.

be easier to test with the droids as they can use the same apps
