Buttons are too Hard to Push

Posted by Eric on 14th Dec 2011

Unlike my previous Apple Bumper, I like that there's a lot of space around the ports, allowing it to fit any headphone or charging cables. I also like the little stand it comes with. I've owned an Incase Slider for the 3GS and I was happy with it, so I thought I wouldn't have problems with this one.

But in this case, (no pun intended) the buttons covered by the rubber edge are really hard to push! With my previous case, I could easily press the buttons from the outside of my pocket (which is helpful for quickly pressing the lock button if you forget to put your phone on silent and it goes off during class). Also, waking up in the middle of the night to check your phone and then locking it, becomes a battle between your waking muscles and the lock button.

I hoped it just needed some breaking in, but I've had it for over a month now and still no improvement. I really want to like this case, but I can sadly say I don't recommend it :/
