Review on Timberland GL360014 Ribbed Stretch Charcoal: Stylish and Comfortable Men's Sweater by Adrian Garcia

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not suitable for active phone use.

When all you need to do is answer the phone, these gloves might be just what you need. But if you need more precision, e.g. For example, for texting, navigating menus, or playing a game like Pokemon Go, these gloves are terrible. The only part that works on the touchscreen is the rubber pads on the thumb and forefinger rests. Nothing else seems to be logged. One big issue is that these rubber pads are a bit stiff, so it's a bit like trying to type with nickels on your fingers. Being only on the pads of your fingers means you have even less control than you should. You can't use your fingertips like you normally would on your phone. Also, both index fingers are turned outwards, so your finger rests naturally on the seam and not the center of the pad. This makes it even harder to get them to do anything on your phone. All in all, you can only take the call with a few frustrated taps before it actually registers a touch. I can't judge how warm they are. keep for long time as it is too frustrating to use.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • No color required
