Garmin outdoor products that have touchscreens use capacitive or resistive displays. Read below for information on each display and which models of Garmin outdoor devices use these types of displays.

Resistive Touchscreens

A resistive touchscreen is made up of layers that respond to pressure applied to the screen. Because resistive touchscreens respond to pressure, you can use a stylus, fingernail or other implements to touch the screen. Resistive screens can also be used while wearing gloves, making them ideal for hunting, snowmobiling, and skiing. Be careful that you do not apply too much pressure as this could damage the screen.

Capacitive Touchscreens

Capacitive touchscreens use a conductive coating on the outside to sense touches. These types of screens do not require the use of pressure and are more responsive to touch. Unfortunately, you can't use a fingernail or a stylus (unless it is a special, capacitive stylus) to touch the screen.
