Default Volume rocker button mushy?

Are your tablets volume rocker buttons crisp? Mine is 'mushy' and doesn't seem to spring back to it's normal position well.

Mine seem to be crisp. It does make a clicking sound if that's what you're asking. I can feel a little "give" when it springs back.

MIne were a little mushy at first, but seem to get better with use. This was with both of the tablets I got from amazon.

No - mine is 'mushy' on one side, crisp on the other. The two don't actuate the same.

wonder if a bunch are sloppily put together or if it's lousy by design.

Were you able to solve this? The volume up button on the volume rocker is mushy on mine. I can feel it barely, push down if I look for it, but it goes so far down that its flush on that side, with the plastic back plate.

Would this be a legitimate reason to ask for a replacement via warrenty? Or is this too common for that.

I may wait and see if it gets worst. If anything it just makes volume up harder to bump by accident. But I find it annoying just the same. >_>

Yeah I don't know what to do next about it, but I guess we have to live with it. Kind of disappointed with that but realize the reviewers might 'overlook', some things in order to keep manufacturers happy...

Mine is exactly the same way. I got mine from a local best buy. Seems the solution is "deal with it"
