Regular winter gloves don't work with touchscreens; these gloves do. You'll be able to answer a call or send a text without taking off your gloves! Mujjo's touchscreen compatible winter gloves work with all capacitive touchscreen devices including - but not limited to - your iPhone 5 (and previous models), Galaxy S3 (and previous models), HTC, LG or whatever touchscreen phone you're using. They even work on your iPad.
