Hello, I have read that some old cases from Google are really difficult to press the bottons. Are these the new ones?

The buttons work great. Easy to press but not so easy the phone comes on in your pocket.

Sorry for delay in answer you... my experience with these case are everything ok for me, I feel comfortable pressing buttons and I recommend it to any user.

It is not as without case, but they are quite usable. I find that they work as I expect them.

the button are so accessible, you'll probably hit them on accident... its actually way more easy to press the buttons with the case on than off.

That seems to be a common problem with this case. I traveled with mine last holidays, and even though it has just been sitting in the house all through, I discovered that the locking mechanism was not working. When I acquired it though, I tried it out and it was quite okay.

I was having the having the same problem when I first got my case. What I did was cut slits in the rubber on the two long sides of the button , so that rubber button has more room and freedom to move. Worked for me

I know why you are asking that. I've had a few cases in the past where the alignment was poor and it was difficult to turn the phone on or change volume levels. Both the volume and the on/off work fine on this case.

the on/off and volume buttons are not cut outs - so there aren't holes to touch the actual buttons, but the case has indentation for these buttons so even though they are covered, they work well. i didn't have any problems with this at all. hope that helps!

Unfortunately, I am unable to answer with 100% accuracy because I bought as a gift......BUT I am fairly certain that it has to do with the fact that it is less cumbersome and much easier to respond to "touch." I am not the most savvy with tech accessory issues, but I know that most of my co-workers have this case......hope this helps some!!

Craig-did they solve your issue? My case arrived yesterday and the function key isn't working, wondering if I should scrap it and find a different brand/manufacturer.

I would say yes. But this is my first smart phone and smart phone case I really don't have any previous examples to compare it to. To give you an odd example of how sensitive the buttons are; Did you ever see a sesame seed on a table or counter and you pressed your finger on it to pick it up? About that much pressure maybe a little less and the buttons respond.

I had problems with the touch screen. There was no power/volume controls button pressure problems I noticed, but they could not be easily accessed as without the case.

The keys that came with my cases work just fine, however the first few times I locked & unlocked them they were VERY stiff.I had to press & hold the key VERY firmly against the back of the lock. Then turning the key required steady pressure and with some jiggling they turned.Each time I locked & unlocked them the process got easier. Now they work just fine. Work with steady & firm pressure, don't try any jamming motions. Good luck.

Well, you've taught me something I didn't know about this press-to-select feature. I don't know if this model has that feature. When I have a bit of time (hopefully this weekend), I'll look into it. You might want to Google the question with the model number to see if anything comes up. Sorry I can't be more helpful. Still it's a fabulous little keyboard!

I have bought 3 android phones since I bought my pre3 since December 2013, I still use it with its original OS (webOS) and its performance doesn't allow me to use my other phones. Except that I sat on it and gave it 2 cracks which makes me think of where to get a case replacement. This phones keypad is still the best. If I don't find a case replacement I will buy another pre 3. And if you love android very much, then you can ask for an android rooted pre 3. I learnt android works well and supports all features. For me I stick with webOS.

naw, sorry their button alignments are different, i had to specify the model number of my phone when searching for cases, do this as well, there should be one almost identical to this one for that model phone, just search around a bit.

You have to raise your hand....onw bad behaivor I get when turning of the screen...sometimes it goes on and directed to search becuase of the buttons...it is very sensitive...

Nope, I have not had any troubles with either of the power or volume buttons. I've pretty much forgotten that my phone has a case. It's that good!

Yes you can use Google voice commands with no problems. The camera works fine too. No issues with the cover at all. Just the minor fit issue on the case bottom section, but that may just be a manufacturing fault. Nope I'm really happy with this case, can't beat it for the price.
