I see that the "power" and the side "volume" buttons are covered by the soft gel cover. Are the buttons still easy to push and access with the cover?

Yes it's super easy to push. I don't even notice the silicone/gel. It's not bulky nor does it get in the way like some other off brand cases

Yes. I have absolutely no problem. The case does not cover them up to where they are hard to use. They stick out a little above the case when it's on your phone.

Yes they are very easy to push , barely tap it and it works , no struggle with buttons.

My daughter doesn't seem to have any problems with them being covered. It's a soft cover, easily pressed and used.

home button is not blocked by the case. the case does cover the volume and power buttons with soft rubber nubs. I actually found that those buttons work better with the case nubs because the additional height of the nubs made those buttons more obvious for "touch" use.

While it does cover the home button, the rubber is fairly soft and I have no problem with the home button. You can push it even though it is covered.

The buttons are covered, but they are still quite easy to press - unlike cases I have had for other phones in the past. This is a major plus of this case

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

I believe it is because the newer version eliminates the button cover that is on the bottom over the home button. I would absolutely go with the newer version. The little cover was not my favorite thing. It made it a bit hard to push that button and as you know your push it a lot. The problem is completely fixed with the new one. The case is really great, enjoy.

it does cover the volume/power buttons, but it has its own raised buttons that you can press and they work just fine.

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

Hi Vanessa! The power button at the top has to be pushed a little harder but not really a big deal in my opinion. The volume buttons work fine. Hope this helps!

The case is molded for the buttons. I haven't had a problem hitting power or the volume rocker. They are covered (which is kind of a bummer from a MotoMaker standpoint) but it's a nice case. Access to the dimple and the case's soft touch back made it worth the purchase to me.

Mine hasn't yet and I've had it for awhile. I love it. Plus, I've had protective cases before that made it difficult to use the power or volume buttons...not this one. Definitely a great buy.

Yes the skin is soft button are easy to push the hole you plug your charging hole is very small have to use a small micro usb jack the one the phone comes with is to big i like the case other than that hope this helps

It's harder than the silicone slip-on cases. I ended up not being able to use mine because the case covers the buttons and it's so hard that I can't even press the lock button or volume buttons down. It's flexible enough to bend, but still a little too hard for my taste. Hope that helps!

Yes. There are openings for charging and the power button and volume button are covered, but their functions aren't affected by this (actually, they are protected).

Yes, it slides in quite snug and has a flap over the top that can be tucked in to further prevent it from falling out. I agree that it is a little hard maneuvering the screen but I only utilize the play and pause, and sometimes the volume; no issue using those buttons.

On the side opposite to the one with the volume and power control press down and out on the colored plastic cover. It will slide out and expose the battery compartment. It is tight so you will have to use some force. I was a bit stumped by this too as there is no documentation in the packaging.

The rubber on the home & volume buttons is very soft. It's more like a silicone-rubber feel. I absolutely love it.
