Maybe its me being VERY picky...
But on the back side on the phone on the lower cover,its a little bit creak sound when i press it.
Also if i hold the finger on the top on the phone and under at botttom,if i press both ends at same time i also hear another creak sound.
I have no idea if its acceptable. Any sound from Your phone?
The plastic which joint the metal on back side is it moving when you press hard ?
Can you see any gap between plastic and metal part?
No,i can't say I see a gap there.
I don't press hard tho.
Nothing is moving..
By the way, it's not sound all the time..
Nobody else have sound at all?
Just tryied it. I have a creak sound too. But havent noticed it the week i have the phone.
Nothing like this here...
Thanks for reply.
When I press it, it almost sound like a little click.
But when I hold it on top and bottom at same time and press , it's creaking.
Maybe I'm just being very picky about it, and I guess this is not a good reason to bring the phone back to replace it with a new one.
If I press first the lower left and right sides together really hard and then press the back at the CE-label and keep doing this alternately there is a faint click. I have to hold my ear about 10 cm from it to hear it.

My week-old 800 is great, except for the one small annoying thing with the power button. It's obviously functioning fine, but it's very loose and wiggles around on its own, whereas the volume/camera buttons are firm and in place. I know it's not a big deal, but could it be fixed by opening the phone and re-seating it? Does anyone else have issues with loose buttons?
My camera button is a little lose. Though I can live with it since it's the camera button. Sort of suits it better to be a little lose than the other ones.
I think the camera button is a little looser due to it being 2 stage, not much you can do about that.
As for the power button, I guess if you stripped it down, you could put a shim in place to help matters.

One of my earlier Lumia's that I returned had a very firm camera button.
Yeah, my camera button is firm as well.
Sent from my Lumia 800 using Board Express
Mine is loose a little bit, but it feels good when pressing. It rattles when i shake my phone but that isn't that annoying. My first Lumia had a crackling sound when display is touched at right side. That was REALLY annoying

I also had a strange sound on my first lumia 800 when pressing the screen. Probably the gorilla glass was´t properly attached.. But whats interesting is that there are several ppl here that have had lumia devices with the screen not properly attached.
I think that's problem in plastic that holds display to the rest of housing. Find some video of Lumia disassembly and you will see how it looks. I had that issue on my second Lumia and i sorted it out wit tightening the two screws beneatk covers. It was much less noticeable than on firs device but i knew where to look for crackling so i found it But this one is much much better
Hey did you ever open up your phone? My power button stopped working yesterday and Nokia China didn't help me since they don't sell the phone here. I have to use the camera button to access my phone... it makes me livid. Can you offer any advice?
If you look at the back of a galaxy s3 without the backplate, you can see that there is some sort of square "button" in plastic. The right side has it too.
When i press this so called button, my phone makes a clicking noise (also makes it when i press in the remote area of it, even if backplate is on).
It clicks like a mouse click, so its probably loose.
This is the best picture I could find, sorry its not not that big.
Bottom line, how can i stop the clicking without voiding warranty? I find it annoying because its such an expensive device. Maybe I have OCD or something.
same problem
Hey I have the same problem with my galaxy... mine makes a clicking sound on the back sides... did you happened to get it fixed or you just left it?

Ok the tablet is great. But after a week ive noticed today two things that are making me return it and probally ask for money back.
The back near the power button feels as if its not glued down when u push it slightly it clicks, this isnt acceptable in a 400 quid tablet
Now the screen ive just noticed this when I hold the far right corner the screen shows extreme signs of pressure from back and distorts,its. Only does it along the left hand side.
Has anyone else noticed these problems

I have mine arriving on the 6th, so I hope I don't get any problems like this. However, it does sound unusual from all the reviews I've read. I'd say replace it, sounds faulty.
Noticed it also on the right side.
Screen is also too sensitive.

the power button is designed that way i think.. but the sensitivity on the right is i didn't notice so far.. i felt a little bit sensitive when i first remove the plastic cover on the screen.. i think its due to adhesive on the plastic cover..

yep. This is a downside of thinnes ( It lacks rigidy a bit cause it shell made of plastic not metal as in ipad. But the plus side it is lightweight.
I recently had my volume button get stuck. Odd thing is I do not remember dropping my phone at all. I really think that I must have man handled it and pushed it too hard. I am a pretty big dude so this is entirely possible.
What you will see: The volume will jump around and act erratic. When you look at the phone from the side you will see that the button is actually bent on one end. When you try to reboot the phone it will go into the download mode confirmation screen.
How to fix it: Follow this video up to the 2:45 second mark. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NNvCRW5PiU
When you look at the piece you remove there are some rubber ends on the button. Detach those and remove the button from the little tab in front if it. The button is aluminum and bends REALLY easily. I personally think this is a design flaw and they made it out of material that is too soft. I put it on a hard smooth surface and pressed it down to make it flat. You can also hold it in your fingers and bend it. Either way, make it flat and put it back in.
Problem solved.
hi guys
been looking for posts /threads about those loose/wiggly buttons in here
and i found out that S8 seems got similar issues where either power button or bixby button or even both button seems not as tight as volume button
while this is probably not big concern or have any effect to water/dust resistant with the one that have loose button as it have more gap than the button have tight-fit
i am curious is that manufacturing defect and should be replaced
or most people get similar slight "loose" button and said it within manufacturing quality
I have noticed this too, but not just for those buttons. All of the hardware buttons on my note 8 are a bit loose, it's possible to wiggle them up and down very slightly and make a sort of taking sound. No idea if this affects the waterproofing though. On my previous phone (iPhone 6) there was no movement whatsoever.
Yes i noticed that too and because my S8 power button wasn't that loose, i went to the store to test the models there but they were all the same, so i think its normal
Happens after some wear and tear on them.
It shouldnt effect the water rating since the buttons are on the very outside.
Inside the phone the button area is cup. So even if the button itself came out its still sealed.
The tear down videos and photo show all this.

Hum on that idk.
Mines out the box was tight. And even right now the only buttons that is a little lose is the bixiy button.
But my s7e was like this. Very firm out the box, then a few months later the vol would rock very easy.
