The Capacitive Touch Screen and resistive touch screen have different advantages and disadvantages in different aspects, the following is their comparison.

1.Touch experience.

capacitive touch display:It fells good,easy to touch and support multi touch and rich interactive experience.

Resistive touch screen:It need pressure.And it is complex and awkward ,which fells bad and supports signal touch.But pressure sensing control is correct for users who are used to stylus or high precision requirements.

2.Screen Precision: Because of lower precision,it can meet daily basic operation.It may be have some mistake on high precision scene.

Resistive touch screen:Because of higher precision, it is suitable for precise clicking or drawing scenarios, such as electronic signature, drawing design and so on.

3.Screen display effect:

capacitive touch screen panel:high light transmittance and clear image

Resistive touch screen  :Because of the multilayer film and poor light transmission,it affect light and clear.

4.Durability:

Capacitive touch screen: The outer glass is strong but brittle under impact.

Resistive touch screen: The outer film is easy to damage, but it is not easy to break under certain bending and extrusion.

5. Antijamming capability:

Capacitive touch screen:It is easy to electromagnetic interference.

Resistive touch screen: strong anti-interference capability

6. Cost:  

Capacitive touch screen: Its technology is new,so its cost is higher and price is higher.

Resistive touch screen: But it isn’t not same with capacitive touch screen.

7. Application scenarios:

Capacitive touch screen:It is used in consumer electronic such as smart phone,and commercial devices that require high touch experience and display effect.

Resistive touch screen:It is used in cost sensitive or harsh environments such as industrial control equipment.
