1. Please explain how it works when using winter gloves.
Do you mean winter gloves are conductive?
2. Water is a good conductor, how come the S4 Active screen is not responding to screen touch when under water? S4 Active has capacitive touch screen.

I am using s3 right since 1.5 yrs and used s5 of my friend for last 2 days. Here is my review ;
Battery ; almost 80% more than s3, mainly due to Kitkat
Display ; certainly great although phone heats up particularly front area during long call otherwise Ok
Look; not looks a flagship phone at all, metal like ring is even worse than s4
Call quality ; although loud but not as clear as s3 moreover back flip cover vibrats during talking if other person has loud voice
Finger print scanner ; no problem almost 99% accurate in my case
Camera ; just fabulous
New TouchWiz ; I like very much, person who is not so techy may not feel that much
Value for money ; not at all at this price of 40000 in India. Maximum price of this set should be 30000 only in my opinion.

Had this phone for about 2 weeks now. And so far I'm very happy with it. Battery life is good. Still have 38% from yesterday (7:00am) It's 8:30am now. And I'm Emailing, Whatsapp,BBM and surfing the web and using maps. Very good phone

Now, for normal digitalizers we need a conducting surface with good surface area. From onwards the s4, samsung worked on the digitalizer to make it more sensitive and detect a capacitance change even when the conductor is some distance above it. The thing you call as air view is an example of that tech. The reason it works with fingernails is that your skin is near and it can detect the change in capacitance change. Also the fingernails are conducting and they change capacitance. Even the screen of s4 and note 3 work with fingernails. Try with the end of a plastic pen. It won't work. Now samsung worked with the digitalizer and removed the barrier for area. So even the small tip of a graphite pencil can interact. Try it with the other end of pencil which is wood i presume and it won't work.
The screens that detect pressures are called resistive touch and are a very very old tech and used in cheap touch phones. They can be used with anything and any material.
Have a nice day.

Another tip for everyone. Once the touch sensitivity is turned on, the phone will not only work with gloves, but also a normal pencil or anything sharp nearby. Forexample, the stylus of the Galaxy Note 3 will work, any pencil will work, a knife would, etcetera. Thankyou.
