[Q] the tactile feedback of camera button - Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE

Not sure if this is normal, but the dedicated camera button gives me nearly no tactile feedback, just like when you pressing hard rubber...
I can't even get to half-press to get the auto-focus, which I enjoyed with other HTC devices ....
Is this normal, or mine has a problem?

Mine is the same way, I think that's just the way it is designed.

Thanks, felt good to hear that,
i miss the feel of shutter button of HTC phone....

I put an Otterbox commuter case on mine, all the buttons feel the same....

[Q] Is your skyrocket's power button "buried in"?

I feel like the volume buttons are more prominent than the power button and easier to press on...
And since now I'm having the pop case on, the rubber also makes all buttons less “springy"...
Wonder if anyone else have the same problem...
I noticed this as well when I first got my SR-I727… the power button was less prominent than it was on my SGS2-I777…. but works perfectly fine. I have the case-mate pop case on and case does not interfere with operation of the power-button… I actually prefer it now as I don’t have to press as hard as I did with the I777. Just make sure you have the underlying skin (on the two piece case-mate case) placed precisely over the power button before putting on the outer hard case shell.
My buttons are the same. Kinda bothered me at first but I got used to it since they work fine. Plus after about a month I start to not care about my phone and its flaws.
I like it like that. I was used to it on my Infuse, and Vibrant.
I don't like how the volume buttons are popped out, it makes them feel..... weird.
I just exchanged Skyrocket for another one (battery drain and other issues) and the power button is even more "buried in" on this one than on the previous one! I don't like that, either and I think it could be a problem for someone with "bigger" fingers
On the other hand, now battery is 79% full after one full day! so I guess it's a trade off...and no two Skyrockets are the same

Loose power button?

mine jiggles about audibly. anyone else?
nope?
Yes, mine does too... It's now annoying me so much that I'm just about to head off to the store that I bought it from; to exchange it for another...
Mine too, also applies to the volume rocker button, although not quite as much. Why can't these things be under more tension?

How did that go? Find a tighter one?

my power button also rattles this is the second thread i have read with people explaining the same rattle
My power button wobbles a little if I wiggle it, but neither it nor the volume rocker make any sounds.
STOP SCARING ME ! I'm from Romania and if my phone comes with defects it's going to be a looong time till it heads back to Italy and get a replacement ( +money spent on shipping it from RO to IT and the other way around )
My power button and my volume rocker do not wobble in any way, they are perfectly tight. Who knows if that will change in the future though?
It was discovered on another forum that the white version has tight buttons with no play. The black ones seem to suffer from a loose power button and a bit less so with the volume button. Does this seem to apply to everyone here?

My black 16gb has a loose power button. It works fine, but if I push it side to side it has noticeable movement. If I shake the phone and put my ear right up to it there is a small rattling noise.
Out of curiosity I checked buttons on my xperia sp and my note 8.0 and noticed other buttons on these devices such as volume button and power button had some movement as well. It doesn't effect the way the nexus looks or the way it works, so it doesn't bother me as long as it's not a defect and as long as it functions for the life of the device.
I emailed google support and got this response:
"Hello Lee,
Thank you for contacting Google about your Nexus 5. We are very glad to hear that you love the device! I am happy to answer your question about the power button.
By design, the power button does have a little 'wiggle' room. If however, you are having any issues with the ability to get the power button to function normally, please let us immediately.
If you have further questions, please reply to this email or feel free to call us at 1-855-836-3987 (855-36-NEXUS).
Thanks,
Sam

My power button seems a lil loose as well but works fine. I checked a few at the tmobile store and theirs were the same way so i think its normal. Have heard the white ones have tight power buttons tho

I have a white nexus 5 and both power and volume are loose. This doesn't effect it at all and I'm not sure whether it was from my case (spigen ultra hybrid) when I take it out to change the back/clean, but I'm worried that if it was just from the case, how strong are the buttons and how long will it last?

Buttons Are ceramic and are wedged deep inside the phone chassis ensuring it won't just fall off

I know it won't fall off as such but more if it becomes loose and stops functioning

I've heard some with the exact opposite theory. It's random and has been reported on red models even. Manufacturing tolerances.

Looking for case that improves/faciltates camera button presses

Hi
I'm looking for a case that improves the use of the camera button. Because personally I think you need to put way to much pressure on the camera button for it to reach the full click. I usually move the phone because of this and the picture is not sharp. I know Sony adressed this with the Z3C, the buttons on that device are easier to press.
I wish there was a case which has a larger button covering the camera button, so we would need to press less hard.
Most cases I even either have a cutout, which would make it even more difficult to press the button or have a same size button covering it.
Anyone encountered something like this?
Hey!
I personally purchased the Case-Mate Tough Case and I couldn't ask for a better one, it's perfect imo, also it makes the camera button A LOT more pressable (though it does not have a cut-out for the dock, but idc for that)

Anyone else got mushy buttons?

Hey everyone,
Just wondering if anyone else has mushy-feeling buttons, especially the volume buttons? They make a very slight 'click' but take a little more effort than I'd expect to adjust. I've kinda got used to them but wondered if it's normal?
Cheers
Mine take a bit more effort to push than I expected.
I've contacted Google and they've offered an RMA so I'm guessing mushy buttons are a manufacturing defect. Hopefully my replacement will be free of this.
I swapped my white Pixel 2 for a black one and the buttons are much better.
I have a Pixel 2 with the clicking sound problem that I RMA'd for another device, which did not solve the issue.
I did notice that the bottoms, espcially volume bottons were different on the two. The original device had a little bit softer buttons with less of a click. The second device had firmer buttons with a louder click. I actually like the softer buttons better. I would not call them mushy. There is still a definite click when you depress them.
This may not be a hardware defect but just a variance in the hardware. They probably have a tolerance range of what is acceptable. Still, I ws surprised that there was a pretty noticeable difference between the two devices.
A bit mushy out of the case for sure. With the fabric case on, they are very clicky.

anyone with a case have issues with "buttons"

No matter what update I have, the buttons have ghost presses once in a while and they don't press sometimes, mainly in landscape and left hand portrait use. On the latest OTA, I never used it much without the case to test if it's the case or the update.
The case I use is this. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07F33LZFH/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_Vs-OBb9ZVVT38

Interesting how yours is not giving you issues.
I have the same case as well, except its black. I haven't had any issues either.
I hv the spigen rugged armor but it is hard for me to press the volume buttons, i wonder how the ringke feels.

Yeah i have the same case and the same issues like you. Landscape in youtube doesnt work at all for me
I have the Spigen crystal clear and I get ghost presses all the time. Kinda sucks... Buttons worked fine for me out of the box until the software updates started. Now I have ghost presses at least once every other day, sometimes the power button stops responding at all until a soft key is pressed, and sometimes touching the corners or back of the phone gives a ghost press... I've even had a couple of absolutely true ghost presses... Phone on its own not even being touched and I see the screen come alive and the volume move all the way up.
Even without a case, the occasional ghost press happens... Just not as frequently. I'm starting to understand all the early reviews and frustration. For me, it seems like the buttons are actually getting worse with each software update.
I hate it because I love the phone otherwise.
i have tested spigen clear case and mubi clear case for htc u12+
and unamed chinese clear case
the only case whit any issue on the button are mubi clear case for htc u12+
buyed on ebay

I think I figured something out. The phone's buttons react much better when I'm gripping onto the sides just like smart rotate. Would the edge sensors be effecting the buttons?
I have the same problem. Contacted their customer support. They told me that they have never heard about such a issue. I don't think so. I think HTC should declare a recall for that.
Hi.
Same here... But... When you have problem w egdebuttons press software buttons or fingerprints scanner. After this starts everythings back to normal. Rotate makes the way too
