So basically I am on my 3rd phone case and this one finally works great.
When I bought the phone from the Microsoft Store they had an expensive name brand case that seemed to be more for girls or the more “soft” men so I just took their cheaper basic case at the time just so I would not be using the phone without protection.
That first basic rubbery case was just one layer of protection so I ordered one from eBay which was two layers.
It offered better protection but the buttons were sort of hard to push and the molded rubber over the stupid Volume up-Power-Volume down buttons was all one piece so I could not tell what button I was pushing.
So then I bought yet another case off of eBay and this one seems to be doing the trick.
It has three separate molded shapes over the Volume up-Power-Volume down buttons and that is a big deal because now I can FEEL which button I am pushing whereas before I was always pushing the wrong button.
The rubber over the camera was still a little too stiff to get the true feedback of how hard you are pushing it so for that I took my pocketknife and cut the rubber on either side of the rubber button and that made the button easier to push.
So basically after using it for a few weeks now I come to realize that the camera button is working good (after I modded it) and that I’ve been doing good now with grabbing the volume when I want volume and power when I want power. So I thought I’d share my findings with other.
This is the case. It is not the most pretty cases but it looks ok I think and it is doing the job.
I’ve dropped the phone twice while in the case.
