G1->MT3GS, No Dedicated Call Button, Glove Issues...?

999phonebug · Jun 6, 2010

I'm pondering about getting a MT3GS to replace the G1. However, one thing I like about the G1 is that it has dedicated call and hang up buttons, which are not present on the MT3GS.

And I heard that capacitive touch screens have issues dealing with gloves...

What's your take on this?

I've Never once had a problem with not having dedicated call and hang up buttons. Never bothered me. As For gloves, I've used plenty of latex mechanic's gloves without issue.

I just tried mine and it prevented me from registering any touch on the G1 screen.

Does the optical trackpad recognizes glove-covered fingers?

my g1 works fine with mechanic gloves on also, not thin gloves but. thick gloves is what i wear. still works just fine

Depends on the gloves. Winter ones will not work with the trackpad or the capacitive touch screen. Mechanics gloves, rubber gloves, etc. that heat can transfer through however will work on both the screen and trackpad.

I don't use gloves, so I can't comment on that at all, but I can say that not having call/end buttons isn't a big issue. It has the phone button on the screen, that leads to the HTC SmartDial app that is vastly superior to the Google phone app.
