After farting around with my phone a little today, I'd give the glove mod a 6 outta 10. It works, but not perfectly. It's tough to make the screen slide, but hitting buttons, such as a music stop button on My music app is no problem. Tapping the screen to answer a call is no problem. Anything that requires more dexterity is too big of a hassle to mess with on a bike anyways. My Sena lets Me use the jog dial to advance to the next song on a playlist. I'm curious if voice google navigation will work with the Sena SMH 10. Guess I'll find out.

Hmmm, I like the Revzilla reviews and I am about due for a new set of gloves. Although, he did not talk anything about how well they will work on a touchscreen. I am anxiously awaiting your review CIG.

Let's not dismiss the string cheese idea to quickly Mr. McGyver.  If it works we can maybe extrapolate on the idea, like maybe a piece of leftover steak or strap a chicken bone to the back of your finger.  Does it have to be processed cheese?   I'm a fan of aged cheddar, would that work?  I'll draw the line at cottage cheese though, that would just look gross.
Oh man, all this thinking about cheese has made me hungry.  Shouldn't post right before supper.  Someone want to start a thread about our favorite cheeses?

But I digress,... back to the scheduled thread.

Cheddar is better.

I have these and am quite happy with them.  They work great with my phone, and though expensive are really comfortable and well made.  The venting even seems to be quite functional.

Don't spend too much.  I'm sure the vibration will kill the phone before you get your money's worth out of the gloves.

I own a Nokia Lumia 920 that works with gloves on. And Nokia map and gps is pretty darn good.

30,000+ miles between the DR650 dual sport and C-14 and the 4S is still good.
Phone has been in an Otter Box since I got it when on the bikes I use Ram Mounts.

No worries, only bad thing that has happened, phone overheating while running GPS changed mount position for some air flow and that issue went away.

Alright reesedp, if these these gloves suck I'm coming back with a few choice words for ya. 
I figure $100 bucks for a decent set of summer gloves is the going rate.

My phone has been mounted on my bike since I bought my Connie last year. The only problem I have is trying to get back to the IRadar app after somebody calls. Other then that, I try not to dink with the phone as it averts my eyes from the road. Stopping and using the phone without taking my gloves off is going to be a plus.

I found something similar to this works quite well with gloves on (Alpinestar SP2). I got a couple of them for my Nexus 7 but it works well with my smartphone too. You can find them on eBay at 10 for under $4 shipped.

Just received these today http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/icon-justice-touchscreen-gloves

Picked them up from the post office, climbed on my BLACK C14,  and easily navigated around a few screens on my IPhone.

I am glad I watched the Revzilla review prior to ordering. He said order a size larger then you normally where. I was hesitant to order an XL pair of gloves, but I am glad I did cause they fit perfect.

Nice! Revzilla is a great store, too.

Aerostich sells gloves with electro- conductive stiching in the fingers for touchscreens.

Arrived used them for a couple of rides before passing judgement...they passed, worked good for me on an iphone in a Otter case in the Ram mounts.
DO use their chart to determine glove size.
