Do the covered buttons make it difficult to press?

Not too bad and I went to my local Verizon store and they were very expensive!

Actually there are no covered buttons. The port for charging must be uncovered, but that's not a problem. I really like this cover!

No they are easy to press. But the first time I dropped it it shatterd my screen. Go with the defender case much better case and the buttons are easy to press

Not at all. The rubber over the buttons actually makes them a little easier to feel. Much better than some other cases I've tried with this phone!

Thanks for the reply. I ended up putting a small adhesive form pad on the button to make it easier to press. That seems to be working.

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.

If you are meaning the volume button and screen button, No. That was one of my worries as well as the last case I had did not allow me to push the screen button or be able to do screen shots. With this case everything is still completely functionable.

Hi - You can feel the buttons and have to push them down. You can't glide over them but it doesn't bother me. It's a sturdy, clean, sleek case that really protects my phone. All of that outweighs the fact that I have to push a little harder. Hope that helps! Sue

They aren't soft like jelly or soft silicone but they are thin enough that I've never had an issue using the buttons. I wouldn't worry about it.

Yes! The white is hard plastic, though flexible. The back is hard, but has a bit of a soft feel to it due to the little dots in it. The black edges are covered by the hard white on the sides and are exposed at the top and bottom where it is soft and rubbery to absorb impact. The buttons are covered by the soft rubbery parts, which make the buttons much easier to use in my opinion.

Yes, there is a noticeable clicking sound when you press either of the buttons. But not knowing what you have right now, I can't say whether it is more or less distracting.

Yes, the volume buttons are hardest to push, but the screen and other buttons are fine.

Yes they are covered but you can distinguish by a raised dimple where the buttons are. Very easy to use and works perfectly.

It's mostly hard, but where your buttons are on the phone, the buttons are not exposed. The case has soft rubber areas where your phone buttons are. Nothing is exposed other than the front.

I had no problem using the buttons. That's doesn't matter if the cover doesn't fit the phone.

It doesn't cover the power button. While it does cover the volume buttons, there are little plastic nubs sticking out that allow you to access the volume keys by pressing the case (looks like a rubber version of the volume keys under the case). I've never had a problem accessing any keys with this case.

The buttons are sewn tight. I have not had any problems with them. I bought two of the ottomans last year and they are still holding up well.

Yes, the button is easily accessible. About the only very minor access issue is the charging port. The cover deforms a bit when the power plug is inserted. The cover is very flexible so that is not a problem but it looks a bit odd when the phone is plugged in.

I have no trouble at all using the buttons on my phone when it's in the case. I will say I'm a woman so my fingers are reasonably small I suppose but our son has one and he has large hands. He also likes his very much. FYI you're actually pressing the buttons on the phone as the "stick out" through the corresponding holes in the case.

Yes the buttons are sensitive, Only thing is as its on the same level as bummer, sometimes I end up pressing both the power button and the volume together making my phone silent.
