De que color es vuestra pantalla tactil?

A ver, la pantalla tactil que va encima de la pantalla de abajo... ¿Está hecha de los mismos materiales que la pantalla de arriba? No, por consiguiente, son distintas. No os empeñeis en buscarle las 5 patas al gato!

First of all, let's start by introducing you to what this FAQ is about.
Since the release of the Nintendo DS, it became evident that they were two
different touch-screen types (or potentially even more) used in the systems.
We don't have concrete information on the exact reasons, or even if they are
indeed actually made by different companies (according to the rumours). But
what we are quite aware of is exactly that: That they are different.

Depending on the circumstance and the user, one type of screen might be
preferred over the other; and since the differences are apparent, I thought
that I would make a guide to inform people on what kind of Nintendo DS they
have, and also to stop the recent trend of people prefering a certain kind of
screen over another. The difference, although obvious, is still superficial.

==============================================================================
[ PART 2-a ] *WHY DIFFERENT TYPES?* [ PART 2-a ]
==============================================================================

The answer is tough. In fact, there is no directly relevant information that
points to the reason behind the system appearing with two (or potentially
more) touch-screen types. One would probably believe that either the Grid
Screen or the Grainy Screen is the "older version", and the other is a recent
"revision" that was done to fix some initial problems. This is not the case
because to my knowledge, both screen types are still being made in a 7:3 ratio
in favour of the Grainy Screen.

The rumour that they are made by different factories seems logical enough.
But still there are a lots of interesting tidbits that disagree with it and
even completely contradict with the rumour. If they were made by different
factories, then why the systems "Made In Japan", "Made In Hong Kong" and
"Made In Indonesia" all have apparently appeared with both screen types?

So, in search of an answer, we are just making more questions. So, let's
forget for a decent answer, and just face the situation as is: There are
currently two different versions of the touch-screen, which I am going to
describe in detail below, and there are no apparent reasons behind this.

UPDATE: We now know that the original GRAINY SCREEN was only used in the
first models and how now been completely out of production. If you happen
to own a DS bought at a later date and still have the GRAINY SCREEN, then
you probably found a launch unit or one unit from a batch of later produced
systems that still had stocked grainy screens.

==============================================================================
[ PART 2-b ] *GRAINY SCREEN* [ PART 2-b ]
==============================================================================

1) Both the upper and the touch-screen look similar in this model. The catch
is that the touch-screen looks desaturated (grainy) slightly if you compare
both more carefully. The touch-screen feels flat and smooth when you use the
stylus or your finger.

Screen is FLAT and SMOOTH. You can't tell the difference between the upper
and the touch screen.

2) There is seemingly only one layer comprising of both the screen matrix and
the touch-screen. As soon as you touch it, you have near instant input on the
screen in the games.

3) The screen is very durable and not prone to scratch under most
circumstances. A screen protector is still recommended for extra protection.

4) When playing games with the back-light off, picture is slightly more
blurry and less vibrant.

==============================================================================
[ PART 2-c ] *GRID SCREEN* [ PART 2-c ]
==============================================================================

1) The touch-screen looks significantly different when compared to the upper
screen. Though the image is as sharp, there are small dots placed in a grid
that can be seen when you examine the system at an angle.

2) There are two obvious layers. The bottom layer is screen matrix, which is
the one that has the dots placed in a grid. The overlaying layer is the
protective coating which has diagonal lines (or bumps) from the top right to
the bottom left, evenly spaced from each other (~0.04mm).

3) Because of the two layers, the time it takes until you touch the screen
with the stylus or finger, and the time until it actually receives it as an
input, is delayed slightly. Additionally, if you use the stylus at a certain
angle, the diagonal bumps (or lines) can slightly make the surface less smooth
to the movement.

4) The screen is also very durable and not prone to scratches under most
circumstances. However, there is a rumour that in comparison to the other
screen type(s), it is significantly more prone to scratches. Since this part
of the guide is listing facts and not rumours, I can't help but dismiss them.
Personally, I believe that both screen types are equally prone to scratches
and while the chances are very low, I suggest you purchase a screen protector.

5) When playing games with the back-light off, the image is sharp and vibrant.

[ PART 2-d ] *COMPARISONS & OTHER* [ PART 2-d ]
==============================================================================

-> You need to use slightly more force to have input on a GRID SCREEN.

-> Unconfirmed rumours depict that the GRID SCREEN is less durable.

-> The GRID SCREEN is more vibrant in colours and more sharp in lines.

-> The GRAINY SCREEN makes drawing slightly harder, because of the near
instant input on screen. Also makes it more prones for "drawing mistakes".

-> However the same can be said about the GRID SCREEN which has a non-instant
touch recognition system.

==============================================================================
[ PART 2-e ] *MYTHS & LIES* [ PART 2-e ]
==============================================================================

------------------------- GRAINY SCREEN --------------------------------------

1) It's better, it's the newer version!

-> Both screens are in production. We don't know why Nintendo keeps making
both systems, but apparently they are. There is a 7:3 ratio in favor of the
GRAINY SCREEN in terms of production numbers. However, there are no points
to this rumour being true, otherwise Nintendo would have stopped the
production of the GRID SCREEN.

UPDATE: Indeed we now know that it was the GRID SCREEN that was the new model,
instead of what we originally thought. In addition, the GRAINY SCREEN has
been completely pulled out of production for whatever reasons unknown.


2) It's the only working with Wario Ware Touched.

-> I can confirm that BOTH screens work perfectly with Wario Ware: Touched &
the Wario Ware: Touched Demo.

------------------------- GRID SCREEN --------------------------------------

1) The GRID SCREEN is not durable.

-> Partially true, because it FEELS slightly less durable. The two layers
make for what appears to be a slightly less solid build. But since I have had
both systems since launch and with no visible signs of wear on either, this is
still a glorified myth in my opinion.

UPDATE: More than a year later, with both of my systems installed with a
protective film, I can confirm that both screens have proved to be equally
resistant to scratches and wear. Neither has outperformed and both still work
as new.

2) Pictochat appears to be less responsive.

-> Again, partially true. But not because of the hardware or the screen. It
just appears that if you are used to the GRAINY DS, and you use pictochat on
a GRID DS, because you are used for INSTANT INPUT on the touch screen, you
think it is less responsive. Well it is. But with practice you will get used
to it.
