The button placement kind of sucks. instead of a toggle for volume, there are two small buttons places really closely together, and then the power/screen off button directly above that.
trying to take a screenshot is a little difficult with this setup., and often trying to turn up volume ****s off screen.
Anyone have button positioning issues on this model?
no... all phones have vol up and vol down buttons and then a power button... Samsung does volumes on left and power on right. moto does all on the right. taking a screenshot is easy. just power and volume down. that's it. not complicated... and the power button is textured whereas the volumes are smooth so that you can feel the power button is different. It only slightly sucks when you have a case that doesn't do that.

hi guys,
i find the power button on my s4 to be a little squishy. the volume button and home button both have a much better feel. the click when pressed.
The power button on the other hand doesnt stick out as much. it has a tectile feel but just a bit squishy. lol

Nope there should be a definite click to the power button. Mine is also squishy, I had 5 S4 previously and they were all fine.
I decided to keep the one with a dodgy power button as the screen is ok and its PVS binning 5.
But no, it's not normal, it's defective. If it really bothers you then send it back
Yeah mine is acting wierd aswell, but you get used to it after a few weeks!
i dont like te power button on S4 it's pushed in heaps unlike the S2.
Prefer the S2 power button
IMO Note 2 has a major flaw with hardware buttons placement, where volume buttons located on exact opposite side of power button, which means in my experience 99% pressing power button I accidentally press volume button too.
Does Note 3 have the same flaw or they actually shifted these buttons away from each other?
P.S.
Also I hope they didn't swap sides for these buttons, making power button on left.
Sorry to report the power and volume up/down are on the direct opposite sides from each other so when you hit power you are gonna hit volume 99% of time as well.
That sucks. Hopefully being narrower it wouldn't be as bad...
On N4 they better move power button higher! or...I'd buy it anyway, I guess...
Anyone else think the power button should be a little higher to be aligned with the volume buttons. I'm right handed and it's a little in the way of my thumb.
Not really. Well in my case it's perfectly aligned with the way I hold my phone on my right hand. I have a bigger than medium sized hand, I think.

That's why they placed it there, to be in the way of your thumb.
It is 100 % placed in perfect area. I used to end the call by pressing power button and its position perfectly comes under my thumb while cutting the calls.
I have a small-medium (size 7-8 glove) hand and I find it perfectly placed. I'd hate stretching for the power button if it was higher.
It's placed perfectly for me as well except for the volume buttons, can't stand where they are placed.

If anything I think the volume buttons are placed a little too high
I agree with others here, power button is perfectly placed, volume buttons are too high, I'd prefer the volume down button to be inline with the power button.
Fact is that volume buttons are placed too much high instead xD
And I'd liked a nexus-way for screenshot taking: vol- + power, not power + home.
The first one is perfect for one-handed use, the latter is not.
Thanks, guys, for pointing out something that never used to really bother me before, but yes, now that you mention it, the volume buttons ARE too high. LOL
How are your power and volume buttons in regards to them being loose or not? Mine are just a little loose. Nothing too major but I'd be lying if I said it didn't bother me just s little.

My power button is fine, the volume was very loose and rattly. This along with the non-flush panel on the back and some cosmetic damage on the frame led me to exchange it. Just waiting for my replacement now.
My power button is fine. The volume button is loose on mine though.
Bothers me too, but the rest of the phone is fine so I'm not going to RMA unless I find something really wrong about it.
Mine do not rattle, but the power button requires little force to be depressed. I have accidentally turned off the screen multiple times. My volume buttons are fine though.
The power button on my 6P is very smooth. No "click" when pressing, just..smooth if you will. The volume rocker makes a distinct click pressing either up or down & takes slightly more pressure to click. And I mean slightly!
No complaints here. That's the way it's supposed to be!
Volume button are fine. Power button..eh... smooth? They seem mushy to me. All buttons should have at least SOME feedback. I'm not even sure I hit it most of the time.
Why does my S7 Edge power & volume button have a different click feel? is it normal?
I've got my s7 edge from just a month and i feel like the power button has a slightly different "click" compared to the volume buttons!! is this normal? Should the power button have a click feeling like the volume buttons or should it feel slightly different as i described? i dropped my phone like two days ago and before i dropped it i didn't really care about the clickiness of those buttons, but since then it really bothers me a lot :crying:
All my buttons have the same clicky-noise and feel, so I'm not sure what's going on with yours. Can you describe how it feels a little better? Is it a softer feel?
the power button is not softer or mushier than the volume buttons when pressed, but it has a much louder click noise compared to the volume buttons. The volume buttons don't have as much "click" as the power button. it's hard to hear when you're not in a quite place, but when you are in a quite room you can clearly hear the different clickiness between that buttons. it's really hard to describe it actually :silly:

Well, what can I say It's either caused by that fall you had, or it's a production thing. I have no idea. But if you're not bothered by it, then keep using it. If you're bothered by it (which I think you are, since you made a thread about it), then get a new one if that's an option.
Why do my farts sound different? Is this normal??
