Volume and Power Buttons Plastic? - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

I have had a play with the s8 and it appeared to me the volume rocker and power bitton where plastic? Can anyone confirm

I would assume they are metal, hope so, but difficult to find out, hope someone else has info.

In JerryRigEverything's video he says all the buttons are metal.

Buttons Stuck

the hard buttons on my TMOUS HD2 are sticky/mushy....to the point were they make a "crack" noise when i press the opposite button. anybody else having this issue?
mine doesn't stuck but it definately makes cracking sound when pressed. I had examine and concluded that the button is rubbing against the digitizer. i had tried to apply a very slight amount of grease around the button but it is of no use.
who has a workaround for this?

power button sticking

i just bought a used Droid incredible and i have had it for about 3 days and i have noticed something about the power button at the top. the power button doesnt "click" when pushed down like the volume buttons do at the side, it just goes down. its kind of annoying is there a way to fix it or something? are of them like this or is it just mine? if you have a droid incredible can you tell me if the power button clicks like the volume buttons do when you press it or does it stick like mine?
The power button does feel like the clicks in the volume buttons.
whenever my phone comes in contact with a lot of sand, the power button gets mushy like that. yes its supposed to click like the volume buttons. try cleaning it out and see if it helps
what do i do to clean it out? also is there a way i cant just remove the 4 screws on the back open up my phone and clean the power button from there? i think that would be easier because i can make sure there is nothing stuck down there. but the only problem is the VOID warranty sticket is on one of the screws and i dont want my warrenty to be voided because i just bought this phone.
so does anyone know how i should remove that sticker and put it back on the phone without ruining it?
You can use an exacto knife to peel it off, the topic is in here somewhere

small bump in the case near volume rocker

i have two i9505 from vodafone, both white, both with a small problem. near the down volume button on the middle case the case is a little bumped like half a mm, u can notice it by looking at the volume buttons and see that the down vol button is a little more in the inside of the case that that up button, also u can notice that the display frame case is also not perfectly allined there.
do u guys have this problem or i am the only "poor" guy that has 2 with same flaw!?
I can only say mine doesn't have this issue.

Power/Volume Buttons

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.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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.

Volume Buttons

Wow guys, talk about cheap hardware.
My volume up key is sunken down in so far that I can't press it. Volume down worked, until I just pressed it down again and the whole button is subsurface. Yay.
Here's a photo with the volume up side stuck below.
I'll try to pop it out with a screwdriver.
Update:
I removed the rear case all the way, then pushed the buttons into the case, using duct tape to keep them from falling out. Then I snapped the case back on.
Here are photos. One shows the buttons, and the other is of the tablet internals, in case anyone wanted to see...
