How accessible are the 3 left side buttons when is encased? When encased, is the nano's bluetooth functionality affected?

The buttons are very easy to use because ridges make the buttons accessible. You can feel them. No problems with Bluetooth either.

I don't have any trouble at all using the controls with the sillicone case on.

I use all the buttons and bluetooth just fine. Its has small raises area where the buttons are so you can find them by feel.

Honestly i never had a problem with the side buttons. If anything you could return it to get a new one if its damaged spigen is good with returns.

Yes! I've had no problem accessing the buttons. The case is a pretty slim profile and it dips on the backside to give you more space to access those buttons.

Ive been using my Monster iSport with iPod Nano and have not experienced any problem whatsoever. I can pause/turn up/turn down normally.

I can't say with certainty that the first two posts are incorrect, but they do not feel mechanical to me. The tactile feedback on them is extremely poor, and there's virtually no auditory feedback to speak of. The primary buttons (on the top) are definitely mechanical, but I really doubt the ones on the side are.

I flipped mine around to test, and that section of the flap is soft enough where the buttons still work. If you still find that difficult, a sharp utility or exacto knife would cut a clean, small window for the volume buttons.

Hello Brad and thank you for your interest in this product. The home button is covered and not accessible while in the case. Please feel free to contact us with any further questions. Thanks Again!!

No, it doesn't work as a multi-function button, nor does it activate Siri or S-Voice (on Android). This is a major bummer about this otherwise nice device. If that is what you need your Bluetooth device to do, look at the Noisehush, or even most cheaper, lesser known brands - usually they do work in that manner. I have tested it on several devices. Although others state they can successfully accomplish it, it hasn't worked for me. I am an electronics engineer - so perhaps mine is defective? That's just my experience. Battery life is quite decent the limited times I have used it (because of the non-activating button). Sound quality is also good.

I haven't had any problems with any of the buttons. I had a coworker mention that she had problems on her 4 with the screen protector, saying she had to push extra hard to get it to work. I had cut a stick on screen protector and stuck it on while I was waiting for the case to arrive, and ended up leaving it on even with the case, which also has it's own screen protector. I don't know if that adds enough extra thickness that allows the screen to be responsive, but anyways, I've had no issues whatsoever.

As long as you have it positioned so that you can reach the volume button on the right side of the Nano. You have to be careful though. If you hit the volume button in the middle, it actually pauses the music.

I am now on my third - left bracket is now fixed and the key board appears to be better too.Bought mine at Apple - took it to the store with my receipt and they have changed it now for the second time for me under warranty. I purchased mine in March this year for the first time.the Version you should look for is the one that allows for a space in the bracket for then power button. the previous versions have the power button "covered"

It has a left/right bar below the touch pad. Push on the left or right side and it functions just like two separate buttons. Works fine.

Sorry for late replying, there's 4holes on the bottom(s pen, speaker, charging port & might be noise canceling cut out holes), 1holes on the right(this also might be a noise canceling cut out holes), 3holes on the top side(ir blaster, earjack holes, and might be noise canceling cut out again) I hope my answer help you decide which case you should buy :)

I see what you're talking about with the button being covered in the photo. For mine personally, I do not have this problem. I have plenty of spacespace between my button and case. This could just be a positioning thing or I just got lucky. I'm really not sure which, ha. But ultimately, I really enjoy the case; it isn't overwhelming or bulky.

No, there are buttons on the outside of the case. You can use it both ways, with or without the case. Hope that helps.

I have had no problems with the magnet affecting the hard drive in any way.I have bluetooth headphones and put the Nano with case in my pocket and go hiking with it located in the front of my pants....no issues.

not easy to use the buttons on the sides. I have my Ipod in an armband case as well and the two cases together make button use limited. The roo case does not stay secure enough to clothing while exercising.
