Urban Style Touchscreen Gloves work with any part of the glove

Urban Style Touchscreen Gloves

Gloves and touchscreen phones usually go together about as good as oil and water. That’s why the world invented touchscreen gloves. Touchscreen gloves conduct whatever weird electrical current is in our fingers through the fingertips of the glove to trick your smartphone into thinking you’re not wearing any gloves.

What I like about the Urban Style Touchscreen Gloves is that the entire glove is conductive, not just the fingertips. The manufacturer, Glider Gloves, says this is due to the material the gloves are constructed with, which they call conductive yarn.

I also like the grip inside of the glove to make sure your smartphone doesn’t slip out of your hand while wearing the gloves.

I tested the gloves out with multiple smartphones and had zero issues whatsoever using them. My only issue was with my Galaxy S6 Edge’s fingerprint sensor. In order to use it, I had to take the gloves off each time I wanted to unlock my phone. Something to think about if you want touchscreen gloves and use a fingerprint sensor on your phone.

Here’s a short video I shot demonstrating the Urban Style Touchscreen Gloves in use:

But do they keep your hands warm?

Ah yes, the million dollar question. Do these touchscreen gloves handle the primary function of a pair of gloves—to keep your hands warm. The answer is yes and no. These gloves are on the thin side so I wouldn’t count on them to keep your hands warm while shoveling snow off your driveway or engaging in a snowball fight. But then again, you shouldn’t be using your smartphone in either of these situations anyway.

They do, however, keep your hands warm enough for a fall or spring day or even a mild winter day. If you truly want cold winter protection, Glider Gloves also makes Winter Style Touchscreen Gloves that will do the job a little better.
