Doesn't this case cover the silence button on the side of your phone, making it completely inaccessible?

Unfortunately yes, and also as time goes on, frequent assembly and disassembly of the multi-part case will cause the screw knobs to wear and tear. So, a neat case but requires a bit of functional sacrifice. There may be an app available of the AppStore that can silence and un-silence the phone without having to use the switch. I know there are equivalents to turn the screen on and off in case the home and/or power button are malfunctioning.

Yes it does, but if you can set up "Accessibility" options to allow you to use your home button to turn silence on & off.

Yes, it does. However, the volume up/down buttons are still accessible through buttons on the body of the case.

Yes, it does cover the silence but so what I did was turned it on from settings so I can access the silence button from the touch screen. Go to Settings, General , accessibility then assistive touch and push it on instead of off. From there, I was able to turn use my silence button

Andrew, mine was so tight it shut the phone down, by keeping the on / off button pressed. I actually worried about damaging my new phone, trying to get it out, after I wedged it in there. I sent it back.

I am not sure how this can interfere - the feature is part of the tapping on the main screen which is not covered by this case. I love the case and the on/off buttons, and volume buttons all work great thru the edge of the case.

Do you mean make the tablet sleep? The power and volume buttons remain uncovered even when the case is closed.

Swipe your hand over the control buttons from left to right not even pushing down hard... and it comes off mute. I have no idea why this works, but it does.

I found that it had more to do with how I inserted the phone into the case, and which direction my toggle switch was. Try pulling the phone out and switching the direction (silent or loud) and reinserting. Good luck!

Yes, the cover has pieces over the power and volume buttons that mimic those buttons and lets you press the buttons on the phone. It's hard to describe. It looks just like the buttons on the phone but it's not cutouts. It covers the phone buttons. They actually feel better than the buttons on the phone itself and since it covers the buttons it will help to prevent dust from getting in.

Exposed, and the side is completely exposed for the vibrate button and volume, and bottom is completely exposed. I love this case. My friend bought 2 of them after seeing mine. Hope that helps.

It does not block the camera and the silent button works awesome ! It's a great case! Just know that it's a little heavy. It's literally a tank. I love mine tho

No, the volume controls as well as the silent switch are covered when the case is closed.

If you place the RAZR HD in the middle then yes it covers the volume button. I just slide it slightly off center and it is fine. It does not cover the charging port at all. Works on the iPhone too.

It covers the volume up and down buttons and the top on/off button. the rest are uncovered.

It's not covered. There's an opening. It actually sounds great when using the speaker. I've used this cover on my S4 for several months.

No. None of any of the buttons are covered. I will tel you, buy this cover. It is the prettiest, thinnest, best fitting, good looking I have ever used onan iphone.In the end to me what it does is to keep my iphone looking the same way as the reason why I bought it, light and thin.

The buttons are exposed. There are only two on the Moto X, and they are open but also protected. Still love my case!

I am an adult and I had the same problem that this case makes it difficult to use the on an off button. I would say your idea of removing the areas of the case covering those buttons might work. But, I have not tried this solution.
