Both. This particular model can be purchased as either touch or non-touch. I have a non-touch which is not compatible with Windows 8. I was advised to uninstall W8 & load W7, but then discovered this unit too low end to pull that off.

No it's not a touch screen. But it has the windows 8 tiles that makes it look like some of the other touch screens.

It has a hard screen, but it is a touch screen. Not sure what you mean by a soft screen.

It is not a touch screen. I thought I had read that somewhere before I bought it. Kind of a bummer.

It's the same. The LCD is touchscreen. Both functions are perform by a single item.

Hi Jennifer, assuming this is the one I bought, then it is the actual touch screen and works fine on my iPhone.Jan

Nothing on the Asus Web site or any vendor Web site has mentioned that this is touch screen, and because of Windows 8 that's a "hot" enough feature that I'm sure it would be stated if it were. Several other Asus notebooks are, though.

The model we purchased is not. They do make this model in touch screen but you need to pay very close attention to the description. Best of luck.

Yes, is a touch screen, BUT it is very slow, the batery is very very bad and you cand find a better computer in another brand

It says on the box "Capacitive Multi-Touch Screen" that is all I know because it is new still in the box

This is the digitizer (touchscreen) and not the display. You will have to go for lcd screen replacement if your backlight is not working.

It is a touch screen but I had two screens break on me, I would advise another brand or a protective case,

It is not touch screen. All you can do by touching the screen is make finger prints.

No, it is not a touch screen even though is says touch screen in the description! That needs to be changed.

No, there is no touch screen on this model. Most touch screens are glossy and reflective, and this model is just the opposite. Non-reflective and very bright.

I dont believe the Version of OS matters. You treat the touch screen as an input device.

I'm pretty sure it isn't a touchscreen. It's very easy to replace yourself but mine wasn't for a touchscreen when I replaced it with this one.
