Does this case at all impede use of side buttons?

No, this case works perfectly on my nokia lumia 920. All the buttons work just as if you have no case on. This case is also great at keeping your phone protected. I highly recommend this phone case.

No. It goes over the buttons so you have to press on the rubber, but they are really easy to press.

It's a small bit of raise. The buttons are covered though, so theoretically the side of the case is waterproof and dirtproof(a very good plus!). They're nice and grippy too, and since the sides of the case are smooth it's a very nice contrast.

I have it in different types of cases with no problem, the protection is around the buttons but not over them

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.

No, Aamy. The case covers all buttons without limiting access to any controls or ports, so you'll enjoy complete use of your phone while it's protected.

Hi there! No, all the buttons area easily accessible. The case covers around the buttons, but not over them.

Yes. If you got custom colors they will be lost in the color of the case. The buttons still function well through the case.

Hello. Yes, the case has buttons along the side of the case to allow you to easily adjust the volume as needed. If you look at the image on the listing, along the left side of the case you will see two symmetrical buttons which are the up and down volume buttons.Thank you

That was my initial worry before I purchased it. Rest assured it does NOT make it harder to push the buttons. Not even a tiny insignificant amount. I was very happy with my case.

No. The buttons are open so they can be accessed. Had this case for over a year and this has never been an issue.

Yes I can honestly say it does protect from falls and covers the sides well in my opinion. I also have no problems with using buttons on sides ....loving my case so far ..

I found that it was easier to use the buttons on the back once the case was on the phone. I also feel the buttons and rear camera are protected by the case. The case in no way hinders the use of the phone.

I didn't find any issues with pressing the buttons. My overall concern was with how fast the case ripped and wore out. Maybe it's a result of pressing the buttons? If you are looking for a long term case I'd pass on this one until they make it more robust.

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 got mine a couple months ago and the buttons are fine. While researching the case, I read that some of the older models were bad about that. So if you have an older one, I'd request to swap it with a newer one through them.
