Nexus One Uses Synaptics ClearPad Touchscreen Sensor



Synaptics, Inc. has just announced that the Nexus One contains one of their ClearPad 2000 capacitive touchscreen sensors.  The touchscreen of the Nexus One is one of the most responsive touchscreens of its kind. 

Tom Tiernan, Synaptics CEO says “Synaptics’ proven touchscreen experience not to mention incredable track record in premier mobile phone design wins reflect our strong portfolio of touchscreen solutions.  As one of the founding member of the Open Handheld Alliance™ (OHA), we look forward to continuing partnerships with other Open Handset Alliance members as we execute on our innovative product roadmap supporting compelling human interface design.”

A big part of any touchscreen’s performance is the processor behind it.  Synaptics is lucky that the Nexus One also packs a 1GHz Qualcomm chip.  Even with a better processor behind it, the Nexus One can’t beat the iPhone in screen quality. The Nexus One did very well in the test, but Apple’s opus is still undefeated.
