What is the UV feature regarding the power button? Also, can the power button be uncovered to easily use the TV feature of the phone w/out having to remove the whole case?

I had to test ithe feature before answering your question. The power button has a rectangular hole so that you can use the phone to control your TV, for example. I have mind set up to control my Sony Home Theater and Samsung TV. As a test, I can turn them on / off with the phone case on.

I am not sure what the UV feature is supposed to mean, possible that the screen protector provided cuts the glare from the sun slightly. That is what I have noticed and as far as the remote function I just recently discovered that function as I just bought the phone and have not found a need to remove the case at any time to use this function. The remote still performs well with the case on because there is a small opening in that section.

Yes, there is a convenient hole cut out over the infrared blaster that allows full functionality without removing the case.

Sorry i have not yet used the UV feature on a TV. When i used, i will glad yo share, my opinion.

I don't have any problem with either the power button or the tv control as a matter of fact all of the buttons are easer to operate with the cover on than with the cover off the only beef I have is I wish that UAG would build a holster for it

I'm not sure what you mean by "UV feature," but the IR blaster built into the phone is fully functional while in the case. I mentioned it in my review because it's one of the only cases I found that was semi rigid and allowed IR functionality. There's a cut out window in the power button cover allowing use.

Not sure what you mean by your first question :-) The power button covering has a cutout that allows for the infrared functionality to work without having to remove the case.I haven't used the infrared functionality at all but it's not hindered by the design of the case....

At first it is a bit hard for it to press down on the power button but later on its ok. You don't need to remove the cover or anything to use the TV feature, I use it almost everyday and havent had any trouble. Its a great cover, a bit slippery but it protects your phone very well.

Nope, I have not had any troubles with either of the power or volume buttons. I've pretty much forgotten that my phone has a case. It's that good!

There's hard overlay buttons for the power switch and the volume, but the vibrate switch is exposed as is the home button

Do you mean the home button and on/off? Maybe just a smidge. But the on-screen buttons work like a charm! :) The level of protection this Otter Box gives far outweighs any button issues, I think :)

I just received mine today. Ordered on 11/3. I have the power button issue. Guess I'll contact the seller and see about getting a replacement or I'll get another brand. Too bad though because it's an awesome case other than this button problem.

I had a problem with the power button on the top right. I just took the cover off and put it on again leading with that corner and it seems to work fine.

This case [in my experience] has been very protective for me, the case does wrap around the top and all the sides, but does not cover the volume buttons or the power button. But I would recommend getting a screen protector or something to help protect your screen, with this case my phone has been fine, but I have dropped it face first onto concrete without a case and it hasn't shattered so I may just have a lucky phone, but I would suggest maybe getting a screen protector or just be really careful, but hopefully your phone is as rugged as mine and you can get any case without worry! Hope this helped! [And sorry if this was confusing a little, I get off topic sometimes.

You can access the power button easily with this case, but you CANNOT access the sim card without taking the case off.

Yes, the button is easily accessible. About the only very minor access issue is the charging port. The cover deforms a bit when the power plug is inserted. The cover is very flexible so that is not a problem but it looks a bit odd when the phone is plugged in.

Hi Aamy. Thanks for the question. Per the previous responses, 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. All the Best,

No, this part is not related to where the power button exists. It will only replace the back cover of your phone.This video will help you imagine it more, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ag8Oe9z0YPk

It's not hard to push the volume up/down buttons, although you don't really need to since you can change the volume in Android as well. As to the power switch, it's a little harder, but I think that's a good thing. This means you can place the phone face up on a hard surface without any risk of accidentially powering it off. Any difficulty with the power switch pales in comparison with the benefits of the case. It's the thinnest cellphone protective case I've ever used, and I know by experience, it protects well.

No issues with the power button. I am very happy with this tv. The only quirk I see is that the volume controls seem weak until the TV warms up. In other words. You have to stand directly in front of the tv. Doesn't make sense but within 5 minutes the controls work from a normal distance.

The vendor was very kind to send another one out but it had the same issue. With my spare case, I decided to use a sharp knife to cut through the long sides of the button and this has seriously improved the responsiveness for the power button. Of course, be careful not to cut yourself and also be sure to leave the plastic attached at the two narrow ends of the case's power button. Much better! Again, the vendor, Totallee was outstanding and helpful.

There is a pseudo cutout for the power button. It's basically a raised power button cover with the top piece of plastic removed so it still provides the ease of use of a raised power button. The IR works really good with the case on.

I can't really say. We put the case on for my daughter and haven't had any reason to take off. It is laid out very well to access all buttons while case is on. The power cord plugs in easily, the volume is easy to get to, I think the only button that is a small challenge is the power button but I rarely to power off.
