iPhone X: capacitive-Touch gloves don’t work?

[JtheLemur]

So it’s like 11 degrees F where I am. I whip out my Mujjo capacitive-Touch gloves which have served me well for many years. I thought “FaceID will make winter so convenient since I don’t have to de-glove to unlock my phone!”

But I can’t get any touch to register on the iPhone X’s screen using the gloves.
-_-

Just me? Anyone else try this yet with these or other touch-enabling gloves?

I just tried this morning and it worked but not near as well as other phones. I had to move my finger around a bit and try different edges of the glove. I assumed it was a glove issue. It was a blistering 40 degrees this morning here!

Same. My gloves didn’t work

Interesting (and a little disappointing). I wonder why? That means that FaceID may not solve the cold weather problem with TouchID. I am surprised, because my AW display responds when I touch it with totally non-capacitive leather work gloves.

I don't recall which thread, but I have read were others were saying that some gloves did activate the display and others were not. So it could depend on the specific glove or material.
