A1 power button

4 replies
Hello,

My A1 is acting up. Couldn't turn it on earlier so I charged it but it was almost fully charged. Didn't work after either. Realize that it requires a very firm push on the power button. It's always required a harder than comfortable push but now ridiculously so. I think my device has a defect but want to know how your units are holding up. Seems like a pretty lousy design with the buttons hidden that way. They don't really give a very good feedback and it's hard to turn the device off since you have to press hard and long. Especially using one hand.
Mines ok

Always needed a good push
Mines fine too. Needs a firm Press but sounds like the button mechanism behind the outer might be faulty on yours. I would take it back.
Mines good too

Always think the plastic surface around the power on button will crack at some point from the firm push it requires to turn on and off. Still love its portable sound and come away with me this weekend
