iPhone 17 Pro Max Power Button too easily pressed?

[jjk454ss]

Anyone have an issue with the new iPhones where the power button is just too easily pressed? I have the 17 Pro Max with the tech woven case, and I keep either pressing the button enough to turn it off while using it, or even in my pocket, I will pull it out and the Apple Pay or wallet will be open

Not sure if it’s the phone or the case as I haven’t used it without the case. Maybe I’ll just have to either go case list or try a different case for a while.

On my air, the buttons are all clickier than other recent iPhones I’ve owned, so I think less prone to accidental press in comparison

I’d check how the buttons feel without the case

It’s probably me just being stupid and I have to get used to the new phone. But what made me really think about it is numerous times today when I pull it out of my pocket Apple Pay is up on the screen so I know the button is being pushed, most likely just when I’m pulling it out of my pocket though.

I got an ESR Clear case and the power button does not seem to get pressed near so easily

on my iPhone 17 Pro the button has less resistance than my old 13 pro

Coming from a 14PM I'm certainly having to get used to the extra buttons as I keep snagging them and switching on the camera / putting the iPhone into silent😄 Equally, when going for volume down by touch I'm increasing the volume as I get the wrong button. All part of the reprogramming curve for me rather than the phone!

Same for me - the 17 Pro feels more clickier than the 16 Pro - especially the camera control button.

What about your camera control button in comparison to the old model?

They all sound clickier - especially the camera control button.

Easily pressed? Yes - the buttons feel a bit lighter - but not the camera control button. I think this is a bit harder to press (and louder).

Try a different case. My number one pet peeve on cases is how well the buttons work or don’t work when you don’t want them too.

I have this problem with the Action button. I wanted to leave it alone and use it to mute. Being left handed, on long calls I must have been pressing it. Evidently this hangs up calls because it happened a lot. Disabled the button and have not had the problem since then.

I picked up two other cases and that does fix it, but I actually really like the Apple case so it kind of sucks to not be able to use that

Same here but button operation is a priority to me.

Spoiler: there is no power button on the latest iPhones.
