Does it hinder any of the buttons/features (specifically the IR blaster)?

The volume buttons and the PWR button are hidden, protected. I think the IR blaster is there, right?

IR blaster does not function with this case. I noticed that restarting my phone while in the case restored proper functionality of HTC Gestures. However, volume button + landscape mode to go directly to camera is still a hit or miss. I say "still" because it never worked 100% reliable even without the case.

Yes the IR blaster is completely useless while inside the case. The double tap gesture to wake the phone and put it back to sleep Dnt respond while in the case, along with any other gestures frm sleep mode.

I'ts a great case everything works. all the buttons work easily including the IR blaster. Even the screen protector is smooth to touch and swipe.

I bought the phone case for my son but I did ask him and he says it does hinder the IR blaster

Not at all the blaster is still visible. The case is cut perfect to fit all the extra features. Nothing is where it should not be

No, it just keeps it out of the way. Can also just let it dangle if you want to use the flash.

Yes it can, that's the best feature about it. I'll learn IR codes from any remote and assign them to any button

Not really. The button works two ways - you can "pulse" it with a quick press, or press a little deeper and it'll lock in the "on" position.

It depends on the user. It was easy for me to press on/off button. You being a guy, I could see you might encounter some issues with the buttons.

Doesn't make it harder. Just have to get used to it. Once I did, having the extra depth actually makes it easier to FIND the buttons and doesn't affect my ability to use them.

It is pretty small (about 16" long) so it doesn't block the signal. I assume that you are placing it in front of your television and not in front of your sound system so it shouldn't be a problem. I also use a Logitech universal remote which uses radio to a IR blaster that works great.

I've only used it for about 2 hours and haven't had any issues changing any setting on the camera. It mounts without blocking any buttons.

Not at all. It is a great bargain for it's capabilities. I am thinking of buying one for just me as my husband has it all the time.

Not without taking the grip off. You can disable it from the inside of the grip by taking the one side off. I can loosen my middle finger while aiming and not turn it on untill I fire. But no big off switch on the outside.

No, I haven't had that problem at all. My click switches are fine when sending signals, and no problems with highlighting and dragging either.

yes, we made a cutout for the power button so the IR blaster feature will still work
2124679
yes, but it can really bug the person you are shooting as the the (red)light is very bright. My wife complained about this so I had to deliberately turn off this feature. Be careful when pointing this (on a low-light condition)to a baby!!

The plastic where the camera and buttons are is raised above buttons. The buttons would not be accidentally hit.

Yes but difficult to hold in combat position. Fingers can block laser light. You have to adjust your grip.

Yes, there is a convenient hole cut out over the infrared blaster that allows full functionality without removing the case.

No, the windows are large enough to not cover the IR. However, you'll loose sensitivity at certain angles as with any cabinets. Works fine for the most part.
