Hi all
First question here, been reading for a long time.
Got N-5110

Volume rocker function seems switched.
Looking from the side, on/off is left, volume rocker right.
Pressing volume rockers left side (the side of the on/off switch increases volume
Pressing the right side decreases volume.
Is this a setting? Is this with your tabs also?
On tab 10,1 it was the other was around.

Thanks

Hans

Hans, no you are not crazy.... same here. Lets see if there is an option to reverse that as we watch the other posts.

The volume rocker layout is what I would expect it to be. If the tablet is held in portrait orientation, pushing volume "up" makes it louder, "down" makes it less loud. Same as on a phone. I'd think that it would be confusing having this layout on your phone, and the opposite function on the Note 8. I haven't tried every tablet out there, but every one I've used has the same volume rocker layout. So to me, the layout on the 10.1 seems "wrong".
