the gloves are somewhat touchscreen compatible. But in no way are the even close to "reliably" touchscreen useable.I purchased a set for myself and my adult Son. They are a good price, good fit and breathable. They do allow for the precise handling of things like cards or paper etc.But the first time i used them on my Samsung phone and Samsung tablet S5 The touch screen finger tips did not work except for the right thumb. So i had to use my thumb to try to text and navigate my touchscreen when outside which you can imagine was not fun nor practical.After one days use outside, i tossed them in the washer. They wash and dry fine. But now the thumb stopped working.My son's experience while attempting use with his Iphone Xs and his Iphone 11 and latest Ipad Pro produced nearly identical results except his center finger was the only working touchscreen digit.So to sum things up. The gloves fit well, look cool, price friendly and you can perform many precise tasks like flipping pages or counting cash and pushing buttons etc. They are not for warmth and as such are meant to be breathable which they are. They handle wash and dry cycles fine.And if that's all the seller claimed about their product, this would be a 5 star review. However one of the, if not the, main claim of these gloves is the alleged fact that they are great for touchscreen use. They are the furthest thing from "great" for touchscreen use. This is not just a one time fluke or production flaw with my one set i ordered as evidenced by my Sons set as well.So due solely to the misleading touchscreen claim, I felt it was fair to charge this seller 2 rating stars for said claim.Thank you for reading my review.James
