How to Tell If a Laptop is Touchscreen?

Published in Technology 1 min read

The easiest way to determine if a laptop has a touchscreen is to look for a screen that is smooth and glossy, similar to a smartphone or tablet.

Here are some additional ways to check:

  • Product Specifications: Check the laptop's specifications on the manufacturer's website or in the product description. Look for terms like "touchscreen," "multi-touch," or "capacitive touchscreen."
  • Physical Inspection: Look for a label or sticker on the laptop's bezel or frame that indicates it has a touchscreen.
  • Software: Open the Windows Settings app and navigate to "System > Display." If your laptop has a touchscreen, you'll see an option for "Touchscreen" or "Touch Input."
  • Touch Input: Try tapping or swiping on the screen. If it responds to your touch, then it's a touchscreen.

Remember: Not all laptops have touchscreens. Some laptops may have a "stylus" or "pen" input but don't respond to finger touch.
