HTG Wrapped 2025: 24 days of tech

Winter is here, and you may already be tired of taking off your gloves every time you get a notification. Stores are full of those cheap “touchscreen compatible” gloves, but they’re often not very good. I found a pair that actually works, and I’m never going back.
Anyone who lives in a cold climate knows the struggle. You buy a pair of gloves that promise to work with touchscreens, only to find they only work on one or two fingers—if they work at all. Swiping up to unlock your phone takes multiple attempts, and texts take twice as long to type. Eventually, you just give up, peel the glove off, and brave the cold for a few seconds to get out a quick reply.
As a life-long Midwesterner, I’ve had my fair share of frustrating experiences with touchscreen gloves. A few years ago, I finally had enough and did some research. The Moshi Digits Touchscreen Gloves 3.0 were highly recommended, so I bought a pair. I can happily say they’re the only touchscreen gloves that live up to the promise. I’m never going back.
The Moshi Digits aren’t just regular gloves with a tiny conductive patch. Conductive fiber is woven into all ten fingers. When you put them on, the difference is immediate. You’re not limited to hunting for that one specific fingertip that might register on the display. You can pinch-to-zoom, swipe through articles, and type out full text messages without feeling like you’re hammering away at an unresponsive slab.
Importantly, they’re actually warm, too, thanks to the microfleece lining underneath the knitted exterior. It routinely drops well below freezing where I live, and the Moshi Digits are usually the only gloves I carry. Of course, I don’t wear knitted gloves when I’m handling snow, but they’re perfect for regular daily use. The palms feature a minimal grippy pattern as well, which is a nice touch.
3 Ryobi Tools You Should Buy Before Winter
The cold, harsh winter months are quickly approaching, and snow is on the way, which means it’s time to get out or upgrade your winter tools. There’s no need to manually shovel snow from the driveway when it’s freezing, especially when cordless options exist. With that in mind, here are a few cordless winter tools you should buy before winter.
This article is not sponsored in any way. I was legitimately blown away the first time I tried the Moshi Digits. I couldn’t believe touch screen gloves this thick and warm could work so well. Last year, I somehow managed to lose one of the gloves. The only thing to do was to buy another pair immediately. I’ll do it again the next time it happens.
At $35, they’re definitely more expensive than the pair you might find in a bin while walking down the aisles. But if you rely on your phone in the cold as much as I do, they are absolutely worth it. The Moshi Digits come in two color options and four sizes. They’ve become an essential part of my winter kit.
